Exactly and that's pretty much the only reason those cars haven't totally tanked. It's a poor mans Ferrari!

Nope. You start out okay when buying it, but end up a poor man after owning it.

Total heap in my opinion. Didn't look great when it was new and certainly aged very poorly. Looks like a honda prelude from the rear and a jag from the front. You will not impress anyone with it and it will get you into the madhouse (DIY) or poorhouse (check book mechanic).

It would be cool if you go ahead with the purchase and start a thread though! :) We could watch!

Does anybody know? (The "stick" version)

Ok... so keep the Ferrari engine and mount it to a Tremec T-56 transmission. :)

Looks like a Miata to me.

Some colors are better than others. That yellow is horrendous unless you are in Miami and the silver you may as well be driving a four door Honda. Oh yeah and the rims suck on both cars.

I think this
