For a cheap but fast RWD coupe.

The new Accord coupe makes 240hp but it's fwd. celicas and the like suck balls (the older ones were nice though). Cars like Supra and Eclipse (AWD) are dead. I like the GTI but again it's FWD and 200hp. So just what do we have left besides Mustangs now that the Firebird and Camaro aren't being made anymore?

Dont think it will replace my TA but it does fit the parameters of the question.

350 is hot, no arguement and the 'Vert pictured in this months Car and Driver rocks but it is not a muscle car. Not putting it down, wouldnt mind one myself.

A 350Z also isn't exactly in the price range I was talking about, but it still looks like a nice car.

GT and Z28 are pretty readily available in the lower 20s. how much is a 350Z? upper 20s? the GTO will be even more than that. i doubt you could put as many lbs of boost on a 350Z either.

How much is the GTO suppost to go for when they bring it over from down under?
