Can anyone name some overlooked decent sporty 2 door or 3 doors that time has forgotten...

>The lightest is the Spirit R/T
wut?
No. the Spirit R/T was the most powerful with its 224 HP 2.2L Turbo.
The lightest would be the Omni/Horizon or the Shadow/Sundance.

I almost bought an 85 5 speed lebaron for $500 that looked like that one except white.

I kick myself for not doing it. I didn't know enough at the time to go for it and fix it. Then I got into 80s turbo Fords and fuck my life.

You can find that engine in the Lebaron and the Daytona too but the Spirit is the lightest of the 3. Omni isn't even a K car though GLHs are neat in their own right.

Are rotaries actually that light weight when they're all installed and everything is said and done

At least I was told it was an 85. I have no idea anymore. It was 12 years ago.

The LeBaron never came with the Turbo 3 engine. The Daytona did, but not one of those 3 is the lightest of the K-cars.

Good lord I miss mine. Was my 3rd car back in 2005. Transmission completely shit the bed but it was like driving a fucking spaceship

Are they that bad? DID YOU ROTARY SWAP IT!?!?!?!?

The 4cyl ones can be converted to AWD, if you can source the right parts.

n/a rotaries are pretty lightweight, specially with aluminium rotors
