If you want a lot of HP, look into a 67, 68 or 69 Camaro. For 20 grand you can get e very nice one and if your lucky a big block in it. Chevy big blocks start with the 396 and 375 HP. A good bet is also the Chevelle, 67 to 70, they are auto and have great engines too.

One last suggestion, if you're not into Chevy. Look at 1968 to 70 Mustangs, Cudas and Challengers from Mopar (Chrystler). They were all high HP cars, automatics and with 20 grand you'll get a nice ride. Good luck, let us know what you get. And remember, bring the price down.

wow 20 grand for your first car, you are very lucky my friend

You can get a Mitsubishi AWD Talon, for cheap and then you can get it in the 11's on the quarter with the other money for parts, my cousin bought his talon for about 6 grand and has about 15-17 grand in it worth of parts...but his is a sleeper which means it has no rice to it all all, that saves money for body parts and neon and fakes guys out when you race them

His talon runs tens on the quarter at 158mph, and has turning performance that is ferrari worthy

if i were you i would seriously look into it if you want a car that is fast, and i can garantee it would be faster than a volvo

And are they easy fix up to get more horse power and mods for the exterior

VR-4s are the performance versions of the 3000GT. Go for one of them if possible, very fun cars, if a bit heavy. They're pretty reliable, and sound pretty cool aswell. Try and get one in black cause that makes them look the best!! Niko_FX might know some specs, since his friend has one..

last i though is that the 3000GT VR-4 is the twin turbo version of it.....making it somewhere in the 300-320hp and can hold around with the supra. the normal 3000GT is the non-turbo version. i read it on a mag that it hanged with the supra, the 300zx and some other TT/NA cars. about same times & hp.

i'd get a talon TSi or a 99 mitsubishi eclipse GSX.

(tho with $20G's i'd be able to finish my 240sx, and puttin the rb26dett straight away)
