Matt- in some ways these 25 yo cars suffred from the early smog years. Add 91 octane to the mix and its hard to match modern cars for performance. But they can be fun to drive. Shedding 400+ pounds will make a lot of difference...as Lotus does by adding lightness. And with a better gearset you'll have a lot of fun. Also consider a older R&P set for the rear. (A few $100 for a US car. a fw $1000 for a Pcar)

latest $ $s- probably need to spend $25K+ to get a good $18K- car. Never thought of it as an investment, and never should. De Nile is a mighty big river....
