what because my car gets 25mpg its an econobox?
is it because its small and light?
is it the geo badge?
my econobox comes with AWD, turbo, and lotus suspension from the factory. and lotus used the "econobox" engine in their lotus elan.
Of course if you're talking about my FWD econobox, its stock bottom end has handled 550hp and still looks new after 1 year of road racing, and 4 years of turbo/nitrous drag racing.
face it, people dont know what is econobox and what isnt, and im talking both sides.
Sorry but a 4door civic or accord is an econobox. leave em be.
but an early 90's hatch is freakin light, and parts are abundant,gut it and turbo it, and you can have a quick little car. I wouldnt say its a sports car, but it'll be fun to drive.
