Iv been driving a 05 neon for awhile now, for a (non srt-4) neon its good driving but i need to get somethin with a little more power im into tuning and racing,and im looking for a used car for 3000$ the ideal car i want is a probe but im not sure. It needs to be fast. im looking along the lines of an avenger,stratus,eclipse,3000gt,laser,civic,prelude ,integra...ect is there any others? i really need help iv been trying to decide for a month but i want opinions :shakehead

Happy to note the 05 Neon has been good to you, becauce for 3G's you will not replace the Neon for something with performance unless you got buttomless pockets.

The vehicle's you mentioned, I guarantee in the $3000. price range may be really fast, but for how long ?,,, 2 days a week,,, and then you will come to realize " the neon was a better investment.

Till the day arrives you have some real coin, be happy with slow old reliable Betsy, she gets you where you want to go at her pace.

im not asking how long it will last i understand what u mean, i want to spend 3g's buying the car and from there put money into it rebuilding it thats why i say i like tuning me and my cousin have a lancer that we fixed up and me and my dad are working on a 69 original camaro together they both look pretty tight :boink:(the lancer was a bitch cause it was salvage (wrecked)) and im not getting rid of the neon

Op's this old fart misunderstood your question :banghead: I know there are quite a few members with AF that's into modding, give it a few days, and I am sure you will get some valid input.

z32 300zx- 3.0L v6 either Twin Turbo or naturaly aspirated. Usually pretty cheap nice cars that take corners like a champ stock. They're relatively inexpensive. Tend to be a pain to work on because of the engine size relative to the engine bay. So simple tasks like changing the spark plugs can be a pain. When nicely "restored" I think they're one of the better cars that Nissan has ever built.

and here, I'd suggest going with a Nissan 240sx. you can fit just about anything into that engine bay, as I've seen RB26s, LS6s, SR20s, RENESISs, even once, albeit with a bit of modifications, a viper engine v10. if ya know where to look you can find already modified ones for within your budget.
