Best *cheap AWD* car?

[Dreamspawn]

I'm looking at buying my next car i want a AWD for handling and takeoff. The car is giong to be used Probably under 10k turbo or not doesn't matter i can put one on later. SO let the suggestions begin. So far under 10k all i have is a imprenza rs and nissian pulsar GTI-R. also could consider cars that can have AWD engine/tranny conversions.

eclipse GSX
talon TSI AWD

most vr4 around here are no where nere 10k trust me the vr4 would be my choic but not enought funds maybe a stealth with 99vr4 front end conversion.

You can get GTiR's in the states? Never knew that.


Either way your pretty much limited to a Subie or a DSM by the sounds of it, and Audi A4 quattro may or may not be in your reach (This is the original A4 I am reffering to (I can get a 1998-ish 1.8T Quattro over here for about $10k, not sure about where you are)

all trac wasnt avialble stateside was it?
the 323 just doesn't peak my intrest
If u want i get u in touch with the company that had the GTiR i wanted they told me they can get more. I'd love to get my hadns on a evo 4/5/6 does nebody know how much that would run me in U.S. Also i know fords rally focus is awd to they make a kit for this? So far i'd have to say a steatlh TT with vr4 front end, subie, Talon.

Celica All Trac was the USDM model...in Japan it was called the Celica GT4 and it received a lil more HP than here...at least in the 2nd gen form...(240hp vs. 200hp)

Here are some street cars that are AWD or rally worthy according to www.bensrallypage.com

Some are US road legal, some are not...but they are all in North Am.

Does nebody know who makes a turbo kit for that car or generation. Most turbo kits i see are for the 2002 wrx turbos.

Dunno, but my vote goes to a used Subie, a DSM or a Celica All-Trac Turbo
