AND its a real sportscar - none of this front wheel drive/four wheel drive crap - you wanna drop the clutch, spray rubber and get some drift happening - NO PROBLEM!!! Good luck trying that in a Civic or WRX!
We don't miss out at all. It is relatively easy to buy a Silvia engine/tranny, or a whole front clip and drop the drive train into a 240 in place of the KA24 boat-anchor.
