All these treads containing 'I wish they would make...'
My ideal would be cheap, light, and quick. 180mph top speed and 0-60 under 5.0 not required. No reinventing the wheel, just distilling most wanted features into one car. Opposed or an inline laid flat so C/G close to axle centerline. A/C, stereo, etc. good, but have delete option for club sport version. No turbo/supercharger and possible 'green' version hybrid. Continuously variable tranny. ABS/traction/airbags and protective cockpit. Make it look like a 55 to 65 sport racer. Lotus 23, RS60, etc. No bulges (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) Target is 2: 2000 lbs 200hp $20,000 There is enough artistic and engineering expertise here to do it. |

what he said.... i have my current car that i am keeping relatively true to form (air cooled) at the prompting of a suby convert. and i agree. but...... gonna score a roller some day and that sucker is gonna be a suby with some tony/thacher/et al, parts and input..... with a nice roller, you could have a screaming vehicle that will turn heads and go like hell for $20k or less. cheers and i am gonna watch this one.....
