I think your best bet is either the Integra or the Civic...due to their weights and aftermarket support

Best of luck

From a pure bang-for-buck standpoint, you gotta go with the domestics. If street racing is your main concern, you can get a nice Mustang 5.0 for $3000. It brakes and handles like shit, but it can go very fast in a straight line for very little money. If you're a little more concerned with handling, go with the Mustang 5.0's rival, the Camaro IROC-Z. Or if you wanna stick to Japanese imports, a Honda CRX Si would work; they're extremely light, so all it needs is about 150 HP and it's a road rocket.

Do you know trim levels/transmissions on each? I'm leaning towards the Integra, but if the Civic is an Si model or the Celica is an All-Trac Turbo, then...

I beleive the celica is base couple and the civic is a base sedan. So you htink the integra has more potential for speed?

Yea if the Integra is a 2 door...and the Civic is a 4 door...go w/the 2 door...you're young...you dont need family space!!!
