Forget the Spyder...

As for a Lancer...I'm assuming you are thinking Lancer Evo? If so, finding one for 12K at the least would be pretty nice, but tough to find.

As for suggestions, you could always go the route of the SRT-4. A year after they rolled out, people were selling them for cheaper than 15K. that was a few years ago. But, good luck finding one that is unmolested with mods and abuse.

A suggestion that I don't see thrown around much are Maximas. 2000+ are actually pretty decent cars. If I remember correctly, they can run mid to low 14's stock. The VQ30 actually opens up pretty decently with basic mods. Nice cars all around too.

I'll think of a few more to throw at you later.

Re: nice cars under 10 Gs

Maxima would be nice, as long as it is the VQ35. I would also say SRT-4, as they can be made stupid fast with little modding.

Celica GTS, depending on where you look, but I would still say the Skittle.

Re: nice cars under 10 Gs

Maximas are good cars, I have one and they are quick. There are a lot of support for them and aftermarket. the 3.0 is a lot better for mods. The 3.5 have a lot more technology in them but they do have more stock power. My maxima is pushing 200Hp right now and is a ton of fun! You can pick up a 99-2002 for 5-7 grand with under 100,000 miles on it. The 2000-2002 have about 25 more HP then the 99's due to a different intake system.

Other good cars would be SRT-4, Stealth R/T TT, 3000GT VR4, 300ZX, and GTS. However not all these cars are practical or easy to work on. Do some real research. Dont just ask opinions and good friggen luck finding a evo in your price range.

actually the 2000-2001 3.0's make 35 more hp than the 3.0's in the 95-99's, and the 3.5's in the 02+ makes an additional 35 hp on top of that, so you're talkin about 70 extra HP with the 3.5. and i feel like the selection of after market parts is pretty abundant regardless of the generation. I've had a 3rd gen, 4th gen, and both a 3.0L and a 3.5L 5th generation of maxima and never had probs with finding after market parts.

To the OP: if you want to pick up an E36 M3, let me know and I'll PM you a ton of information on what you'll be looking at in any specific price range and good prices, along with links for some solid buys. I won't clutter up the thread with it all out here.
