They're okay.

I can't fit in them comfortably anymore (damn, I need to lose weight).

Pretty fast and look nice too.

Definitely a better vehicle than your Eagle Summit.

I had a 94 Eagle summit DL coup, FUN car to drive idk what your talkin about. Well mine was more fun after I swapped in a 4g63t engine and it was about to be AWD till I totaled it sad.gif.

But if you want a fun cheap car, you could get a j-body (sunfire or cavalier). I got mine for 1700 and the body is in great condition and its not a bad lookin car, and its quick Ive beat several swapped and even a boosted civic.

Or you could get a del sol, their cheap, look awesome, and its a honda so you know its reliable.

No shortage of cool mods for it that is for sure.  For about a total of $12K (car included) you can turn it into a supercharged 200-250HP beast.  Not bad for a car that weighs less than 2500 lbs.

I said j-body, I never said cavy. There is no replacement for displacement my friend. 2.4l 5 speed vs 1.5l auto with a shit turbo setup, easily done. The swapped civic was my friends and I pulled on him like it was nothing. Teh turbo civic had me till 3rd gear then tailights is all he saw. Both were from a stop. If we would have went from a roll he would have beaten me. Either way, both of my friends like my completely stock car, and I envy them because I get 29 mpg compared to their 35 and up.
