It's extremely frustrating as a car enthusiast. Even a tiny 2 door sports car like the bmw m240 is almost 4000 pounds! I want a fast, light car that isn't 20+

I want a fast, light car that isn't 20+ years old and falling apart.
- marklubi 3y agoAs an M240 owner, it amazes me how much it weighs. It’s such a small car, and so lively and well handling. My ‘05 Mustang weighs less, and if it wasn’t for the handling changes I made to it (sway bars, coil-overs, control arms, and more), the BMW would still handle better.
- zemvpferreira 3y agoThis is going to come across as bitchy but: Put your money where your mouth is. Stop giving BMR money and buy a Caterham instead.
- 6D794163636F756 3y agoAs I have come to learn, Miata is always the answer clocking in at a measly 2,400lb. The katerham advice is good if you're willing to go kit car though.
- JeremyNT 3y agoWe own a Volkswagen GTI. I don't know if it's fast enough for you, but it's no slouch and it's a totally normal sized car.
- joebiden2 3y agoI'm curious as to why you chose that particular vehicle. It's an interesting choice for someone on HN. What convinced you that this car was right for you?
