  Volkswagen Corrado

This sport compact vehicle was developed in Germany and produced around 1988. The Corrado has a 2+2 seating layout and is a three-door hatchback/lift-back. It is marketed by Volkswagen as: "The European sports car with the Volkswagen difference." The Corrado has an active rear spoiler that raises automatically when the vehicle exceeds 50mph, and retracts when the vehicles speed is below 15mph (this feature can also be controlled manually as well from a switch in the cockpit.) The floor-plan of the Corrado is based on the A2 platform, and with the exception of VR6 models, uses the subframes, suspension, steering and braking components from the A2 model range. The Corrado has two engine choices: a 1.8L 16-valve inline-four with 136 hp, and a supercharged 1.8L eight-valve inline-four. It is marketed as the G60; delivering 160 hp.
Price: can range from around $1,200 - $5,000.

  Ford Fox Body Mustang

This vehicle was produced from 1978 - 1993. It is built with a larger body, intended to seat at-least four passengers whilst having a lot of room in the backseat, especially. The engines of the Fox Body Mustang included the 88hp 2.3L Pinto inline-four, the 109hp 2.8L Cologne V6, and the 140hp 309cu in Windsor V8. The automaker had plans this engine would usher in a new era of performance. The 2.3 and 2.3 Turbo, as well as the V8 models, could also be optioned with the newly developed TRX handling suspension that included Michelin 390 mm tires and specific metric wheels.
Price: may range from $1,000 - $8,000 (depending on condition.)

  MK1 Mazda MX-5

This car was made to be a small roadster with light weight and minimal mechanical complexity, whilst still being reliable and modern. Its production began in 1989 and is still being produced this current day. It is a two-seater with a front-engine and a rear-wheel-drive layout. It was manufactured by Mazda in Hiroshima, Japan. The second generation MX-5 (NB) was launched in 1998, the third generation (NC) model was launched in 2005, and a fourth generation (ND) was released in 2015. It continues to be the best-selling two-seat convertible sports car in history. The MX-5's first generation has a 1.8L (110 cu in) engine and is recognizable by its pop-up headlights. The second generation has a slight increase in engine power, and can be recognized for its fixed headlights and the glass rear window. The third generation has a 2.0L (120 cu in) engine. The body of this vehicle is conventional but light. It has a monocoque or uni-body construction, with detachable front and rear subframes. The earlier cars weighed just over a ton; with engine power output usually 116 bhp (87 kW). The later cars were heavier with higher power engines.
Price: can start from around $3,000.

2003 Audi A4

The Audi A4 comes from a line of compact executive vehicles produced and manufactured in Germany around 1994. This car has been built in four generations, and is based off of the Volkswagen Group B platform. It can range between 1.6 and 2.8L for petrol engines, and a 1.9L diesel engine available with Volkswagen Group's VE technology. It's capable of achieving a 90 PS (66 kW; 89 bhp) or 110 PS (81 kW; 108 bhp.) The Audi A4 offers many standard safety features; including Bosch ESP 8.0 Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) with anti-lock braking system, side airbags in the seats, 'side-guard' curtain airbags, and its optional quattro four-wheel drive system. It has also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety "Top Safety Pick For 2007". 'EuroNCAP' crash test results from the B6 apply to the B7 model.
Price: 3,900 (average)

Ford Explorer

The Ford Explorer was produced first around 1990, and is still being produced this day. The model years 1991 through 2010 were traditional body-on-frame, mid-size SUVs. This vehicle is easily affordable and quite popular. The Ford Explorer is a sport-utility vehicle. In the Sport Trac variant, the 4.0 L SOHC 12 valve V-6 was rated at just 205 hp (153 kW), 242 ft·lbf (328 N·m) of torque. With a fully independent rear suspension, each rear wheel connects to the rear differential via a half-shaft drive axle. The newest generation (5th) features a unibody structure. The fifth generation Explorer features blacked-out A, B, and D-pillars to produce a "floating roof-effect," similar to Land Rover’s floating roof design used on its sport utility vehicles. But, the earlier generations are a whole lot cheaper, I would suggest going for a third-generation. The 2004 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer 4D Utility 4WD is one example.
Price: averaging around $6,000 (for previous generations)

1998 Camaro Z28

The 4th generation Chevrolet Camaro was produced for the '93 - '02 model years. Base Camaros were powered by a 160hp, 3.4L pushrod V6. The Z28 versions featured the 350 LT1 V8 engine, also pushrod, with 275 hp; and 325 lb·ft torque. It has a FR layout, is a 2-door coupe (or 2-door convertible,) has an F-body, and classes of this vehicle include pony-car, sports-car, or muscle-car.
Prices can widely range.
