The CHEAP and FAST thread

Alright, I'd like a list of the cars that are CHEAP and FAST... keep in mind they must be able to be BOUGHT as IS, and still fit the bill. The budget is $5-6000 for the car... ie> I found a built Turbo DSM that looked clean as hell, and ran 11's for the price. But what other NOT ugly and gross CHEAP and FAST options are there?

Stealths can be obatined about $1500-2000 cheaper than the VR4's. As far is the Galant, good luck finding them.

For me it would only be a 5.0 to be honest, but then again I had 5 Dsms don't really want to go down that road again. 94-95 5.0 the aftermarket is cheap and plentiful. There are quite abit of aftermarket exterior items to make the car look pretty mean.


Here is one for 10.5k puts down over 700whp TT 94 stang needs a little love on the looks dept.

This one looks better and is faster than most cars, but not to the level of the one above. I like this one again it's alot more than 5-6k, but it's also turn key. They want 13K obo. It's run a 10.1@134mph.
