well, i was just figured i'd ask you guys whatcha think, i have an extra 6 bolt sittin around seein as im probably not putting my 2G back on the road, i was thinkin about doin the turbo colt, lightweight, haul ass, sleeper, but i was also heavily considering doin a swap on a galant, it would most likely be FWD but there are a few GSX's lurking out there, the AWD non turbo's, my appeal to the galant is that they are very comfy and no one would suspect one, the mirage has the unsuspecting look, but not quite as plush as a galant, but what it lacks in plushness, it makes up for in being superlightweight, both of them can be found under $1000, so let me know what you all would do...

turbomirage.com kicks ass.

Jerry has a 93 Colt for sale for $500 that is perfect for you. Just make it a FWD Turbo and have a blast. You should be able to make that car weigh about 2250 and still have AC and full interior.
