Galant VR4
If you got the time and patience, get a 
Galant VR4.
Four doors, well built, reliable and the awesome TC 4G63 under the hood with 4WD.
The car also looks a helluva lot better than the Neon, IMHO.

Datsun 240/260/280 and drop the Chevy big block LT1 in it. Power to weight ratio can't be matched, plus if you have left over skrilla you can either turbo, twin turbo, or supercharge it. Plus the old datsuns will be around 1k in good shape

Easy choice man. Buy a 5.0!!! You can get a well decent one for under 5k plus you still have 7k to put in it... My sister's fiance bought a 5.0 in germany for like 6k and put 6k into it. He smokes all kinds of cars on the autobahns. He can go 130 in 3rd and has never topped it off yet. Now thats some power. =)

Datsun 510, SR20DET swap or if more easily available CA18DET. [expensive engine and mounting process, cheap chassis]
Civic EG or EK chassis, B16 (cheaper and should be easier to come across than the 18, with pretty much the same upgradeability), and Mugen-fy the bish if possible. [Cheap chassis, "easy" drop, copious cash for hot cams, manifolds, etc]
Those would be my choices off the top of my head...

89 to 98 Nissan 240sx - $2500 to $6000
do a SR20DET swap - $3000ish
300zx rear end - ??? (earlier 240sxs do not have lsd - and you probably want to do a brake upgrade too)
turbo upgrade if you have the cash left
for $12k you can have a world beater rwd 2 seat sports coupe

Trading in my new OZ for an Evo 8
I want an Evo and here is my song I bought a white ES
and heard the engine
the car had no power
so I traded it in
I bought a new OZ
My Lancer is black
The money is spent now
I can't get it back
I thought Diran Peter
would send me a kit
With Evos arriving
won't settle for it
So I'll trade in my Lancer
and pay extra bucks
to drive a new Evo
or life really sucks
Another ten thousand
to add to my loan
I called Mitsubishi
and an Evo I'll own
Thirty thousand dollars
the MSRP
and I'll take delivery
an Evo for me
I'll trade in the OZ
in five seconds flat
I'll race a new Evo
and baby that's phat
this song is too stupid
for you not to flame
but I want my Evo
so I'll take the blame
The End Thank you. Thank you very much.
