Couldn't agree more.
Get one with a Turbo II engine if you get one.
thats what i wanted to hear! i love turbo dodges...
edit: except the neon.

You never read my posts regarding my "Rallye Aspire" did you? I took the hubcaps off, threw some "dirt tires" on the stock rims, put some KC lights on the front bumper, and used it on an overnight rural newspaper route. Most of the roads were washboard gravel, and when it rained it got SOUPY! My wife and I pulled handbrake turns, jumped the thing when hitting the occasional unseen rut, and even backed it into a tree (on a pitch black night in the boondocks). I can honestly say that 4-door, 64 horsepower egg never got me stuck, stranded, or otherwise. Only problem was lack of HP and, of course, it's FWD. Maybe with a Mazda motor and some suspension it would compete... either way, it's the only way to have that much fun with an Aspire.

Well, if you want to start cheap, a Merkur XR4Ti can be had for very cheap. And if you want to beef it up, Sierra Cosworth stuff will bolt right on for the most part

It would be a good rallyx vehicle.. but autocross.. no clue its farely big.. got some pics if you like? 1.6 Litre 110 Horsepower (I think thats what the engine is) I was gonna throw a V8 in it.. but decided not to
1997 Civic CX (lsvtec,el frontend,fast, nuff said)

i personaly think anything rwd would be fun for both auto-x and rally-x, which leads me to propose the mid-80's Toyotas (corolla?) with rear wheel drive (the hachi-roku or how ever you say it) or maybe around the same time a nissan 240sx. both can be had for cheap, can be reliable if maintained well, parts arent to hard to come by, and rwd is fun for sliding around in the dirt and gettin' sideways on pavement.
cheap awd cars are harder to find, and just have more driveline parts that can break. fwd cars can be fun, you just have to use the e-brake rather than the throttle to get sideways.
