Should I get another car?

[Midn1ght Driv3r]

Been trying to figure out what I wanna do lately involving a build project but I can't make up my mind on which route to take. I don't plan on doing a crazy amount right now, but in the future I would like to.

I'm struggling to figure out if I should get a project car and keep the Sunfire as a dd, or if I should just work on it. From what I've seen on jbody, it seems like it's a decent base for something to work on. On the other hand, I have very limited space to include a new car.

Besides selling the sunfire, any thoughts are welcome

Silly question -

You ALWAYS get another car.

For the love of God don't mod a sunfire

ditch the sunfire and get something that will yield results. no offense, but that its not a platform i would ever want to mess around with. ever.

This.

to be honest, even picking up a clean civic hatch and messing with that would be a better bang for your buck.

There's a newer cavalier at the McHenry car shows lately that has a swapped supercharged ecotec in it. It's neat

SRT4, too.

Sell Sunfire
Ion Red Line in FS section

Profit

The Redline sold to KJ the other day.

 

[Primalzer]

Yeah I was just coming back in, I hadn't seen that, nice pickup KJ!

L67 swap the Sunfire


J/K. Keep the Sunfire as a DD, it's a perfect car for a beater/DD. If you want another project car, what interests you? Fbody, import, old, new?

or a huffy

Sunfire, project car, don't do it. As said before you are better off getting a civic. The best advice I have for trying to start a project is to pick a platform that is backed by a healthy aftermarket. It's just not worth it otherwise.

Definitely got my laugh for the day haha. Didn't expect this many replies, but hey I learned what I needed to. Now I need to figure out what I want.

Any suggestions for something with good aftermarket besides the civic?

 

[Mook]

srt4 or a 240 come immediately to mind.

 

[Smokinhot]

what do you like?

Do you like muscle, small little 4 banger rides, grandma cars? It all depends on what you like. We can help with suggestions a little bit more

 

[Midn1ght Driv3r]

Muscle, some tuners, I've kinda liked the 240sx.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

240 rollers seem to be easy ish to find. You could always drop an Lsx or RB into it.

 

[Primalzer]

+1 on the SRT4, cheap, fast, reliable-ish, and a great aftermarket

 

[Midn1ght Driv3r]

Maybe something on the cheaper side haha. I was looking at maybe 1200? It does narrow down a lot

 

[Mook]

1200 budget eh? well, enjoy your civic hatch
