my mate has a S13 200sx.... wicked car, just not too keen on the looks.. but other than that its DRIFT HEAVEN..

The Veccys are tops, V6 sounds wicked, and there is loads of room for ya mates

The 4x4 Turbo would probably be the most powerful outta the bunch, but might not be very reliable..

so its either.

200sx = Fun and rear wheel drive
V6 Vectra = Comfort and practical
4x4 Turbo = POWER

I'd have the cav turbo personally, its just as comfy and practical as the vectra but has huge potential for big power and killer looks

Get a phase 3.5 kit on the turbo and you've got even more serious power and grip not to mention the noise of the turbo and dump valve at full chat

well yeah.. im all in for Turbos BUT in this case i would say to get a newer car..

The 4x4 is gonna hold the road with its bare teeth, but as Mav said it is a little old now..

yeah it'll be hard to find a good cavalier these days, but they are mint. seen a v6 veccie yesterday (it was an sri estate ha ha )with a 6x4 magnex box on each side, it sounded fooking georgeous! nearly put my windows in!!

have you gonsidered a corrado/golf vr6, equally pleasing to the ear, and 200 odd bhp?
