    You know, i have been thinking about a Euro spec E36 M3, the 96-99 Model with the 315hp motor and a 6speed.

    I do like the 190 as well, i dunno how they escaped the price rise the M3 is seeing.

    Rust anxiety-the only true therapy is owning a fiat 850. You could hear the rust creeping on the one I had in high school (I actually had 3 to keep one running!)

    This particular X1/9 might be the only fiat ever with no rust. What a sharp car-but anybody in the 308 GT4 clan (me included) is an easy sucker for the killer Bertone/gandini design

    Speaking of-a 308 GT4-how about one of those? They'll be much easier on the wallet than a fiat Dino these days. Ofcourse nobody knows what it is but they figure it out when you start it up!

    Have you thought about a TR7 and converting it to an TR8? Or maybe a real TR8. Both are Very uncommon cars nowadays and are still low cost.

    Damn I haven't seen one of these in yrs. These were the younger bro of the lotus esprit-the English version on the bertone/gandini wedge. Seems like I saw them all the time when I was a kid

    thanks for the other suggestions, not a TR7 fan, and oddly enough there is one for sale locally.
    I have been checking around for a 2002 as well

    I have several Lancia Scorpions that can be a great project, I can also provide you with technical service and lots of used parts.
