Cheap Sports Cars for 2012
0. 2012 Honda Civic Si - $22,205
Believe it or not the Honda Civic Si goes way back to the mid 1980’s. But the 2012 Honda Civic Si is light years ahead of the old models of yesterday. Honda has continued to stick with what has worked over the years; a small lightweight chassis with a high revving 4 cylinder engine. The 2012 Honda Civic Si has a base price of $22,205. The Civic Si engine is a 2.4L 4-cylinder DOHC motor featuring Honda’s famous i-VTECH system. Power checks in at 201 HP and 170 lb-ft of torque. 0-60 MPH should be in the high 6 second range. What makes the Si so enjoyable as a cheap sports car is the fact that you can take the car all the way to the 7000 RPM redline. The sound of the screaming VTECH and the ability to throw the gears on a 6-speed transmission is enough to keep the driver smiling. The 2012 Honda Civic Si comes packed with some goodies that include a limited-slip differential, multi-link suspension, and cool 17-inch alloy rims. Fuel economy for the Civic Si is 22 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. The 2012 Civic Si might be the most fun you can have for around $22k.
