Default If you could make a car....

What would it be like? Would it be a 4wd subura and eclipse or something like that?

If I were to make a car and I mean from scratch I had whatever a billion dollars. I think I would make like a mid engine 4cylinder ( I would take maybe a toyota or honda engine) put it in there and have it easy to work on cause I dont know to many mid engines that are eays to work on... and have it handle like a dream with like and have the weight down to like 1800lbs with the help of carbon fiber and other composites and have around 180+ hp.

I think that would be a pretty sweet ride
