What is wrong with the Lexus or the RX-8? 1JZ & rotary love. Step up the game.
The RX-8 may be cheap to buy, but mine already cost twice as much as I bought 6 months ago because I had to get a new engine in it. Not to mention fuel economy, which is in fact needs to be considered with european gas prices. Not complaining about smiles/costs, just saying that there is a good reason for cheapness :)
Did you literally mention the Jaguar X type? What kind of list is this?
Wow this list is awful. I definitely
love the RX-8 but the rest are utter trash
These are all considered beater cars where I am with how old they are.
Had an ‘02 Saab 93 Turbo with a stick for a while. Fun car, didn’t have a ton of problems but when it did they weren’t cheap.
