I really like the looks of the car but hate the headlights. Needs to be more sculpted like the cruiser, rounded off some instead of square. I agree on the weight distribution problem. I have a 91 Toyota MR2, rear engine 2.2 l. It is dangerous to drive on anything but dry asphalt. Get it on a wet road or snow or ice and hang on!! you can't stop and if you do it will be sideways and probably in the ditch. There isn't enough weight on the front to make the tires bite. Even when it's dry and you have to do a fast stop you're praying the tires don't break lose. A 2.0 turbo would be insane in a car like this plus get good mileage. I have a 95 Neon DOHC 5 speed that gets 40+ mpg. I also had another one automatic that got 50 mpg. Turbo would probably kill the mileage but you don't get power for free.
