    humm another idea i had was take a stock b3, make it run super good with head work and cam and what not, maybe punch it out to 80-100 HP, something that maybe doesn't have that much grunt down low but in the higher rpm's really comes alive so if u keep ur foot out of it you could still get good gas mileage. Then take a second identical engine built the same way and stick it in the rear. For every day driving just drive around with the front engine to save on gas, then when ready for more aggressive driving start up the other engine and u get AWD and somewhere around 160-200 HP. OH and make sure you do some sort of weight reduction to compensate the weight of the second engine. And of course an aspire swap

      I wouldn't do anything to mine, I like it fine as it is. Maybe AC, but it would rob MPG so never mind.

      What I would do, is find the lowest mileage survivor I possibly could and put it in climate controlled storage just to have. I would like to do that with several cars, just to have one as they looked brand new off the lot. Weird, I know, but that's me.
      Remember "I" before "E", except as in Budweiser.

        hey its not weird, its ur dream so thats cool i like that idea, preserve it so other generations can enjoy it like we do. And hey about A/C, my 88 lx is carbed and has A/C and if i keep my foot out of it it will still get great gas mileage. Most recently i was doing almost all city driving and i averaged 53.4 MPG i just never take the car over 2500 RPM and accelerate slowly. In all honesty it really doesn't take that much longer to get to your destination when you drive slow. Next thing im gonna do is gonna be a little on the dangerous side but i want to see. Im gonna draft some big rigs when i go down south to LA to see what kinda mileage i can get. Going 55-60 and no wind resistance i think i could get 60 MPG!! who wants to take bets? lol

          FB71, I like where your head is at. I'm not entirely sure about mine, but I know that a jet engine would play a large roll in it's construction...or possibly a "Mr. fusion" reactor I haven't made up my mind

              Reupholstered leather interior (Black w/ blue inserts and FESTIVA at the tops of the seats), Black Carpet, MANUAL Seatbelts (I hate the auto's), a cargo cover.

              Nice Sound System
              Full interior and exterior Metallic Royal Blue with Silver Flake, White Factory "Hockey Stick" stripe,
              "FESTIVA GT" pressed into the rear bumper with White fill (like Mustang GT's have)

              Clear Corners, Clear Turns, Smooth Kia Pride Tails.

                Mine would have to be a 93 Black Festy, RWD with up front a crate all aluminum 460 backed with a tremec 5spd. It would have racing seats in it that were leather and a custom leather back seat that were black, all black interior. Also It would be pushing about 1000HP/ 900torque. 5 lug torque thrust II wheels with the suspension of a Caddy. It would also have smoothie tails, factory spoiler, cruise, funtop, 200MPH Tach speedo, full FMS body kit, FMS hood, Kia Pride grille/headlights. Clear corners, and if it wasn't a funtop, it would be a convertible.

                    I already built it... And then crashed it... So I rebuilt it again, only better... And then crashed that one... So I rebuilt it a final time, went ALL out on it... Only to part it out and take a huge loss on everything.
