What do you want in a car? Drag racing? Balls to the wall power? Handling? Combination? Price range? Define "lots of $ to spend". What are your tastes? I hate Honda myself, and I think the sound of farting in a jar blows, but if you like 4 bangers, the new WRX Sti's are great vehicles. Ls1 fbodies are cheap balls to the wall speed; you can pick some up for about 12k with low miles. Bolt ons will net a solid 12 second car. You can make it handle well easily as well with basic suspension parts. Want a project? 80s RX7 V8 swap. Some vendors make kits for them. Old school Datsun Z with 350 small block, or whatever you can fit in there. What I myself would like to do down the road is get a beater car for everyday driving, and a "toy" to work on for the side......any project you wish. A sleeper civic wouldn't be bad. Who cares if "a lot" of people are doing it. Hell, all I see on the streets is rice anyways, slowass cars for the most part. A swap might not be that common, depending what you choose or what you want to put it in.
