Just like the others have said, Miata. 6k will get you a good condition NA with the factory hard top, and you should have around 2k left over

Yes, Miatas, except that they look as gay as it gets.
You ever heard of Mercur XR4TI? It's almost German. I think, it has some blood from famous Ford Cosworth...
I drove that Mercur. That car can be quite crazy.

Don't say "gay." That's retarded.

Maybe something like this?

1993 CAMARO Z28 LT1 ENGINE ONLY 68K KM - $5900

or this:

1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 - $4999

or maybe something with a 6 speed stick, like this:

1995 Camaro Convertible Z28 - $4500


Of course there's always the Pontiac sister ships as well...

NB = 2nd gen chassis code (1999-2005)

And don't listen to the tools who call the car "gay". Yeah, this is real gay

This is what I put my $6k into a few years ago...



1986 Porsche 944 Turbo (aka 951). I bought it with just over 100k, put another 30k on it and spent less than $1000 in PPI and maintenance items. Sold it just shy of 2 years later for $8500.

These cars get such a bad rap maintenance wise. I love these cars, but am afraid of getting stuck with a maintenance bill worth more than the car.
