They call it a "Sports Sedan."
How about a RWD car from a major* automaker with a large 4 cylinder engine for under $18,000 new? *Kia, Hyundai, etc excluded.
| Hmmm... V6 is about as small as it gets. I'm old enough to remember Camaros and Firebirds that came through the 2.5L 4cylinder... 0-60mph was somewhere in the vicinity of three days... downhill... with a tailwind. I remember Mustangs when it was either the 5-liter or the anemic 2.3L OHC Lima engine. With the 5-speed, they were barely ok. With the automatic, the seasons moved faster. Do any of you remember when Camaros/Firebirds came through with the horrible 4.4L V8 (267cid) as a credit option? What a boat anchor! Or when Ford dropped the 302 in 80 and 81, substituting it with the weak-kneed 255cid V8 (4.2L)? Dark dark dark days to be a ponycar guy. (as a post, I drove the Genesis when it came out [the coupe of course] and i didn't care for it. Great styling, just not really what I was looking for and for the price, the Camaro, Mustang and even Challenger were a better deal.... but hey, buy what you want.)
