944s are dope, but you are not going to find cheap parts for them. I think the miata really is the best buy in terms of price, weight, rwd, and junk yard parts availability. I think a fox body or old 86-94 (i think) f-body are the next best things. An ls1 fiero isn't bad.

I really don't care for other peoples oppinions when it comes to degrading a miata as a pure chicks ride, many people on the street do this and it sucks, well blow that cheese off their face when your miata goes swoosh past them!@80+

i wonder if i can connect a proximity sensor to my megasquirt when i get it that detects me passing a mustang and lights a sign on my bumper that says "owned"

Early 70's Alfa GTV. Live rear axle, though. In CA you don't need to have it smogged. DOHC but only 2 valves/cyl. Everyone will hate you if you don't keep it original.
I had a 73 Volvo 142 in college. Same idea but heavier and way, WAY uglier. Very cheap (< $1k for a nice one). Pathitic engine but nobody will care if you mod the hell out of it.

like a miata but not?
another vote for 85->87 corolla gts. other than the solid rear axle its basically the same idea.
dont like that?
small F/R is a hard combo... rx7's sa22->fd (but I like first gen the best), 240sx... older celica/supra, Im getting toward the shallow end of the pool here...

I say MR2 or miata. Both have the parts suport and avialability that is reachable for the average enthusiast both can be wicked fast and super sticky. I wish the woulda found a way to make a lighter coupe version of the miata but ohwell taking the top off makes Fuel pump swaps easier. And that is why god invented roll cages.
