Non-cramped 4 door sedan, ls turbo, awd or 4wd that can survive a 11 sec quarter mile on street tires, exhilarating at limit handling and brakes? Do not care about appearance

Basically a poor man's easy/cheap to work on Audi s8/rs7? Or an awd cts-v I would imagine the tbss handles like a truck... Would sell my c5z to build/buy as with kids and a winter beater in the driveway it's getting old.

I realize the used audis depreciate to this 30k point but that is typically for a reason

Just search the forums for AWD. You can make almost anything AWD if you try hard enough. There is an AWD Nova being built here on the forums even.
