Get a Karmann Ghia. Only 36 seconds to reach 60mph or 100kmH and only 42 something horsepower. And it's a very simple car too.

anything small 4-cylinder, without high performance options might work. Or find something carbureted, and lean the jets out, or block the air intake, sheesh.

VW Golf Diesel (non turbo)... so slow you have to floor it to maintain the speed limit on the freeway...
2.2 Straight six

non-turbo golf diesel? lst i heard all mk.4s and later were 1.9 turbo-diesels. you can, however, get a petrol 1.4 golf. that's 85ci in old money, i think. i'm currently looking for a mk.4 golf estate 1.4-litre...

if it's like an 840glt or something. the past few days i've been watching videos of them. anything upto 700bhp! and many are rear-drive. that's some serious sleeper machinery.

get a pacific rimmer, like a Kia. depreciation is so terrible on those, you'll prob get a used one realllly cheap. also, they're decent in gas milage, and maintenance/parts aren't as much as euro cars....

I want to say a few things but I don't want to offend anyone. Get an old Caprice wagon or something.

I've got my 93 Infiniti for sale... Only asking $1000, and all it's got is an SR20DE 2.0Liter, 5 speed manual, and it doesn't really go that fast b/c it's almost 14 years old.

Haha, the SW Portland police are beating up on ec437, my advice, just don't go near Lake Oswego. Police will nail you for anything.

Actually, I live in Lake Oswego. They're the ones that let me off with warnings!!!:grinno:
Heres a small sample:
39 in a 25, breaking curfew with underage friends on a holiday weekend, nunchucks visible in car (i'm a ninja)
Driving eratically (ahem... "like I stole the car") with fog lights on
and the kicker:
"quickly stopping for no apparent reason".
And then there was the 2 times when I powerslid a corner to find a cop coming towards me on the other side while I was still in mid-drift. Didn't even get pulled over for those. *phew*

I've driven one so it's no bs. It was a 99 model and was about as slow as an 84 Chevette...
