I recently decide i can't afford my car hobby and my computer hobby, so i sold my 3 computers and now have $3200 to spend on my DSM, but here is the question. I realy want a 2.3L stroker from ffwdconnection.com but i found a 1g AWD talon close to me with low miles and the guy only wants 2g for it.

what would you do?
 
thats tough. Just think about what you really want more I guess. You could always buy the car and try to sell it for more (if it is worth more.)
 
i figured i could part out my lazer for around 500-700 that would give me plenty of money to start modding the talon right after i get it
 
I'd definately get AWD over a stroker FWD. The FWD won't be able to get traction for anything. Also skip the middle man (FFWD connection) & go straight to the source (bjscylinderhead.com) for the motor.
