Miata is always the answer, right? Dead wrong! We put together this list of 7 lightweight sports cars and they’re all cheap, plentiful, have a ton of aftermarket support, and most importantly: they’re not Miatas. This is D-List!

    • @@biggabenne Years back I was headed home in my Stealth with cruise set at 70. In the left lane I see a set of Civic headlights approaching. He backed off and was hanging at my rear quarter panel. Knowing what he was up to, my cousin was in the passenger seat and asked if I was going to race. I said no, just let this guy keep playing. Well, then the guy starts the whole, goose the throttle, back off, goose the throttle, back off. He finally annoyed me enough, and I tell my cousin to hang on. The next time he dropped back I downshifted to 3rd and dropped the hammer. I pulled on him hard, grabbed 4th, still pulling, grab 5th at 120. I look in the rear view and see him approaching, FAST. I look at the speedo and I am at 130 and just at that moment he passed me like I wasn't moving. My jaw dropped, my cousin was like WTF was that? I simply said, that's one fast ass Civic is what that is. It is a memory that I will laugh at forever.

  • None of the 1990-1994 motors experienced crankwalk, as far as I'm aware. As for the 1995-1999 engines, I think it was a bit overblown. It apparently was only a problem during low oiling scenarios. I never had a problem with my '97 Eclipse although I disabled the clutch switch as soon as I was aware, as I hated the idea of putting pressure on the crank with zero oil pressure.

Probably will never turn it into a project car, but I wanna really take care of it and make it pretty again. I think they’re really cool looking old cars. Seem reliable as hell too.

  • My favorite project car was the 91 CRX-Si I bought from a co-workers mom for $400 and rebuilt it from the ground up. It had been sitting in a field for 10 years, widows smashed, interior trashed, but she was a pretty girl when i finished it.

    • @@MrLayton1990 Honesty for $7,000 you can get a late '90s Porsche Boxster. It's a really fun car to drive and is basically a mid-engine Miata. It's my dream car and I'm gonna buy one as soon as I finish college and start working.

  • Soon as you started talking about the 911, my first thought was "Is the 944 actually gonna get some attention?" I've got an '86 Turbo set aside as a project. Still not sure if I'm going to keep the OEM Engine and mod it, or just swap it with an LS. Only 30k miles on it so I might keep the engine.
