Hey All,
I'm getting a chumpcar started here at Purdue and have been looking aroud at vehicle options. Porsche's really aren't on the table due to my team mate's reliability concerns, parts cost, and parts availability (even though I found a 60k mile 924 Turbo for 1000...) My question is what would be a really fun, somewhat competitive car? We are currently considering Miatas, RWD Celicas, BMW's, and Civic's. We just found a CRX that comes with three different built engines and a cage which is awfully tempting too. Would the CRX be a good deal? No one on the team has competitive wheel to wheel experience, just a few DE's here and there and some AX. |
