there must be another way

hi OP. i'm in a similar boat, but i live in socal.

have you considered looking at any traditional meme-mobiles? in particular, the 86 twins and the s2000. both of those can be driven reasonably efficiently, and if i can find both with less than 60,000 miles for less than 15k in socal, surely you can do as well in connecticut.
>>
>>14910946
s2000 isnt a bad option. whats maintanence like on these. i apolagize for knowing so little.

as for the 86 twins, they were my origional plan but everyone keeps telling me ill regret it
>>
>>14910986
they're telling you that because they're underpowered. you'll only regret it if you want something faster. you'll never know unless you go try it, man.

maintenance on an s2000? depends on the previous owner(s). many/most are thrashed. in my area, they hold value like lancer evos. your best bet is to find one that isn't modified to shit and has been properly maintained.
>>
>>14911006
ill go test drive one and see. im kind of a brat about power. i see a few s2000's ill probably see how low a mileage one i can find in my price range
>>
what is the verdict on the chrysler crossfire?
>>
>>14910892
If you want the slower competitor you could get a '10+ V6 Camaro if you're into that whole much car is a Transformer crowd.
>>
>>14911034 i would just get the gt or ss tbqhfam
>>
1999 - 2004 Cobra, bullet proof motor, 25mpg if you drive like a granny.
