a beat up 1967 - 1969 Camaro Body with Audi's inline 5 or inline 6 ready for a hybrid build
Sounds like a lot of work, but I think it would be sweet:P

To be honest I would have trouble trading up for my 2's because of their..."quirks" and the fact that I love them, my first 2 is so deformed its like a Chernobyl baby but there is no more fun car to drive I know every squeak bang and thump it makes. People look at it and make smartass jokes but it still goes and corners awesome and has taken about a million people on rides from the ghetto to hot Japanese exchange students (that was a cool day)

My other 2's are just all awesome in other ways and shiny.

^how about a 4th gen base model camaro/trans am with a L67 (3.8 SC) swap. RWD sleeper. Not something I would get rid of the 2 for, but I have thought about it.

^^ Del Sols are popping up all over around me... I never knew they were targa top until recently.. thats kinda cool for a little summer car.


Back on topic... probably just a better MR2. Theres nothing else under $10k I want other than an SUV somedays, but i can't just do it. Since im trying to buy a house, if I end up in a bind, I would sell my 08 WRX first. Its worth a lot more, and I would just buy a winter rat.

If I sold my Mr2 I would find a Audi S4, but I dont ever see my self selling the 2. Maaybe next year I will just buy a S4 and take the mr2 off the road for a complete make over and then use to compete in time attack or some thing.

This isn't for $10K, not nearly, but definitely my most awesome and probably most impractical choices.

Motorcycle: MV Agusta F4, $25K

Car: Caterham 7 Superlight with the 2.4 liter Russel Savory V-8 swapped in. 500HP at 10K RPM? That's crazy. For a car that weighs about 1200 pounds? Even more crazy. I can't even imagine what the costs are. I know the engine is expensive as hell, and the Superlight is about $60K if I remember correctly.

Under $10K, probably a better MR2.
