    whats the most reasonable car in Manila that can do 0-100Km in less than 6 seconds? (5.9seconds will do)

    car should be:
    1. Brand new
    2. should be drivable everyday (w aircon, no open type chasis)
    3. Modifications are allowed only if its original (bolt on off the self w/o fabrication) and should also be brand new - not reconditioned
    4. will not be used for drag (so no NOS)

    any suggestions will help, on top of my head, the cheapest will be a subaru wrx... civic type r will not reach less than 6 seconds w/o modifications (i think)... is there a cheaper way?

    i think the cheapest one will be the dodge neon turbo. it is rated at 220 hp but on many dynoes it makes around 220-230 wheel hp so the engine is actually under rated from the factory. for 2004, it also comes with a lsd which should make putting power to the ground easier.

    Mopar also sells upgrade kits that are covered by warranty which can boost output to 300whp.

    I think an rx8 will not reach it in less than 6 seconds... alam ko medyo hirap pa ang nissan Z for less than 6 seconds.

    I have driven big engine cars that can do 6.9-8 seconds, they are fast... pero recently I was able to drive a 5.9second car... iba talaga!

    Kaya parang hinahabol ko yung pull ng 5.9 seconds

    Di ba kaya ng civic/lynx RS (800T) plus (700T) na upgrade?... para nasa reasonable 1.5M price ceiling?

    Kasi nga kapag lumampas ka sa 1.5M... subaru na nga ang best buy... Im just looking for a poor man's subaru... but not 2nd hand

    mini - no
    rx8 - no
    350z - maybe with a clutch burning launch

    civic with 700t in mods... definitely!!!
