I'll send $10 to the person who finds me the best car under 1k for daily driving in the Oregon area. I don't want to have to bend over backwards for parts, so aftermarket/junkyard availability a must.

I would almost prefer four doors since I have a daughter and inevitably she'll be riding in Daddy's car, but the right two door is just fine. Wagons are as ever awesome. I would appreciate the best fuel economy I can get.

It will be raced in some type of event or another.

You guys see anything, keep me in mind. Thanks!

Whoa, thanks, guys! Heading out to check some of these out tomorrow, I'll send $10 to whoever picked the 'winner.' I knew you guys would find some sweet rigs, thanks!!!

It's going to be a hard choice. I love SHOs, by the way, don't think I didn't see yours up for sale, haha. That wagon is cool too and those Crown Vics always seem like such value for the money, same with the Escorts...

Will get on the phone tomorrow morning and see what's up with some of these, hope you guys are having a great week so far!

Yeah, you'll hear no argument for me, I never even knew what they were until one blew by me while I was test driving a STi a couple years ago. Unreal sounds coming from that thing and it moved the f out, haha.

I just wish I had the time for something like that, it'd require just a bit too much time and I'm stretched thin working full-time for PGE, going to school after work, and then being a Dad.

You're in the military, wherethefmi2000? I've got a buddy up at Fort Lewis, big dude named Derek Martin, he's a 11B if he's still around... Need to get up there sometime and say hello, course I might just enlist again if things don't start working out better here on the civilian side. Ah well we'll see.

My brother is getting rid of his 95 SOHC Neon. 5-speed, 4-door, needs a fresh bottom end, but it has some performance parts already including a moroso oil pan, poly bushings, etc...

If you're interested, I'll put you in touch with him.
