True... (I love the sig!)

Let's keep things in perspective. How much are you planning to spend for a car and most probably an engine swap/some form of forced induction?

If you are planning on racing..buy a 92-95 honda civic hatch CX, has no options, so it's lighter, then do a b18c GSR swap, i/e, turbo charge and then you'll be set...i'd say look at spending about $13-14g's

for style, you gotta go with a coupe. (hehe). But for pure speed, definitely a hatch. I would say Gen 5 with a B18. My second opinion would be a CRX with a ZC motor
