these cars are so hard to find that when i find one, i just have to buy it. this is my 3rd one i've owned. i bought it 3 months ago but its been stored ever since i bought it. only thing i've done was change the tranny mount cause that was broke when i bought it.

power to weight ratio, this isnt your regular 63hp geo metro 1.0 sohc. its a 1.3 twin cam motor which has a lot of potential. it runs 16's stock. after doing some work, this car can easily get into low 14's n/a.

What work do you have to do? I am asking out of genuine intrest here because I am betting not even the guy who designed it would have thought it would become a desireable car lol. Can you turbocharge them or does it stay na? Can you swap them? Do the trannies hold up to the increase in power?

you can do anything you want, check out teamswift.net for more info. headers, cams, exhaust, chipped ecu, DR's and you'll be in the 14's. there's people swapping heads and making them 1.6 dohc, over people are putting the 1.6 from the corolla fx, there's a couple options for it. and yea you can turbo them and they become beasts.

check out these vids.

my point? my point is asking a question about a car that one may not know about, on a car forum could be considered "research"... not only that, if people go elsewhere for information instead of engaging in a conversation, then this place is pretty much useless.

so how abouts you think for a second before telling someone to go do research on a car they don't know anything about when there are knowledgable people sitting at a computer willing to answer some questions
