Seriously dude, invest $45k in safe investments (maybe just money market accounts right now) and take the $10 grand, get a turbo kit and other goodies, and you will be happy. Congrats on the windfall!

All excellent suggestions.

As far as your choices, I think you should remember form follows function.

What do YOU want to DO with it?

P5/CX7 - Haul people and stuff
MSP - ooh aah, look at me! I'm spicy and special! jj
MX5/RX8 - I'd rather be at the track

 

[mx-p5]

wow, you've got just about every possible answer in this thread so far.

You never said what you want to do other than make it a project.

What kind of project? Road course monster? 1/4 monster? Or just beastly Daily driver?

What you want out of the car depects what you should do.

not exactly, but close enough right? and i have no idea what that thing flying next to the car is, but i bet with the cash left over from doin a turbo AWD swap, you'll have enough to buy whatever it is anyway.

 

[d-love]

road course would be nice. daily driver is also important though, seeing as how thats what it is.

i want god-like handling with enough go juice to be able to **** around with your average previous gen eclipse or mustang confidently.

I've done the 5 conversion sans AWD.
I'm a fully independent starving writer/college student and was able to do it, so this guy should have NOOOO problem at all pulling it off.

subbin, gotta see where this goes (ughdance)

 

[alexcited]

if i had cash, id be driving a turbo 98 impreza RS or a mirage turned evo5. or something of that sort. those body styles just do it for me. or a merkur, cause they're just so f#ckin ugly!
