RX-7's arn't cheap... hard to find them and not always under 10g's..

BUT HOW DID A CIVIC SI do better than a 300zx?

This one is better:
"...what these cars lacked in refinement they made up for with sheer brute force – the hallmark of a true muscle car."

im at work and cant view that site, But Rx7 are pretty damn cheap.

Especially FC3S. (2nd Gen) If its $4k or more, it better be MINT.

I got mine for $500.

FD3S now, just a roller can cost up to $6k. Running, anywhere from $7k -$10k for a 100k mile chasis. And the really really nice Rotary FD's can sometimes fetch up to around $17k

Ls1 FD can fetch anywhere from $16k(CHEAP) to (I have seen) $32k.

I like Foxbody Mustangs. i have been seeing quite a few of them lately.

IMO the C4's should have been number 1. Also the 3000GT/stealth appearance is damn good. I had a 91 VR4 years ago and it had to be one of the sweetest cars i have ever owned.... Till it broke. Parts and maintenance for that car was outrageous. I still remember the mitsu dealer wanting 400 dollars for a new IAC.

A 3000GT is better than an F body?

And to think I used to like watching Spike TV.
