Depends. If you have only $20k, then you should be saving some of that. If that's the budget I would save for a little longer and get a really nice JZA80.
i wouldn't want an Aristo unless its easy to make a 6-speed or ATLEAST a 5 speed. i hate Auto's
i'd follow the other guys Nice 92 targa with a 2JZ swap but use the 6-speed and TT Diff.

Heh, you aren't going to be able to afford maintenance on a $20k Lotus if your budget barely covers buying one. That said, I want an Exige S (3x that budget though
)i wouldnt geta MKIV, but thats just me not liking the body style, or the pricetag for a car that is over 9 years old. ide buy something cheap and reliable as a DD and restore and build the MKIII with the remaining 10ish grand.
That is what I wannnnt.
Itll be slammed on coilovers, Kitted, 2jz-gte, all comforts ever needed and enough power to take me past people on the freeway.
Ill trade my Car for one!
I'd spend the money on a decent DD and a mk3 supra, get your DD and your supra reliable.... then what ever is left, modify the supra.
I would just restore my MKIII, I mean, everything original, new, then get wheals, coilovers, 700hp engine, suspension, but I would keep stock exterior
'91 or '92 supra, mint shadow grey interior, dark blue in color, with a single 1JZ swap and drive as my DD and use the rest to start fixing up my 7M .
.
my dream car.. a 92 silver/shadow grey leather targa repainted quicksilver with a 2jz swap, v160, tt diff, big brakes, nice coilovers, 71dbb rolling on 18x9s up and 17x11 ccw classics w/ a 315 dr..
oooooo hell yea that would be a sick bitch
i would also consider doing an old celica 70's with a 2JZ v160 in it as well
but that'd be over 20K LOL

Pay off some bills and work on making my 89 showroom new. I don't care much for MKIV's styling. MKIII's have a Corvette appeal while MKIV looks like a ricer.
The Mk4 is beautiful, but to me, it's more of an artwork than a sports car.
The Mk3 is absolutely gorgeous, it has beautiful lines, and a very functional and roomy interior. It can be easily made to have gobs of power.
I would buy a clean ass Mk3 and do some tasteful modification to it, no body kits, not giant wings, no 20" rims.
Which is exactly what i did.

Definitely a MKIV! MR2's are cool but are a pain in the ass to work on. MK3's are tight ovbiously but, stock for stock the MKIV blows the MK3 out of the damn pool.
