    The thread starter was looking for a car that looked like a Ferrari.
    And no, they are FWD economy cars.

    YES they are sports cars , just an affordable one with japanese quality ,very condesending to call a Integra Type R a economy car, the early model Type R are very track focussed. When they first came out in Australia they did very well in the Performance Car of the Year. The latter model ones sadly put on weight and lost some of their charisma.

    Just because its a V8 doesnt make it a economy car, stop generalising for god sake

    That's very supercar-ish.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    How about a Honda S2000?

    RWD, cheap-ish on fuel

    I appreciate the advice and fantastic points you all are making

    Man, you guys are the best. You all have mentioned so many great cars. The 3000Gt, honda s2000, integra, lotus, spyder, rx 7, miata, solstice, the saturn sky and many more. I never thought there would be so many cars to consider for the look of a ferrari (from the back; wide and low). Secondly, I appreciate all the good points that came with the consideration of every car you all mentioned. Thanks again.
