Fastest 2-seater sports car for under $20k?




vankilsing


So I have been really interested in getting a retractable hardtop miata and then installing a turbo. Total, it should cost me around $16k (or so i'd like). 350z now have pretty competitive prices used, I am wondering whether it would be better to go with the miata turbo or simply a stock 350z. Is there something better than both of those? No suggestions with worse gas mileage than a 350z please. Thanks


Answer
Price parts for both and look at how easy or hard it is to get them!
The Nissan 350z is not considered a reliable car, if reliability is a consideration this would make it a poor choice. On this issue, this is not just my opinion, but also what Consumer Reports reliability records show.
But there may be a problem going with the retractable hardtop model- there may not be a bolt on kit to turbo charge this engine. Flying Miata at least does not make one. 2005 is as new as their kits go and I am not sure the if Begi makes one either. Flying Miata suggests a super charger works best on these cars. May be read on on the subject at http://www.miataturbo.net/.
As far as a different car to start with- I don't know of a more durable car in this class and price range to start with.

im looking for a really sports looking car. or just a fast vehicle like a ford lightning a cobra something just has to be fast and sporty looking


Answer
Are you looking to work on it yourself or buy and drive? If you have the time a 2g eclipse or talon would do the job. If your budget is 20k you could build a car that runs 12's easy.

If your looking to buy and drive I would go with a low mileage SRT-4 or Evo. Check craigslist, you can find some great deals if your willing to wait.

You can usually find a used f-body if that is more your style. Be sure to swing by the local barber and pick up a mullet while your at it.
