your favourite 90s 200bhp car
Once the 90s period was very favourable for the demand, once we had a huge variety of models rounding 200bhp in a cheap way, and the chance to buy a very accomplished car....id like to get your opinion of which cars were your favourites to own or ride during this period...just to remind yourself there you go the list
- Ford Sierra RS Cosworth(2 door 2WD)
- Ford Sierra sappire Cosworth(4 door 2WD)
- Ford Sierra sappire Cosworth 4X4
- BMW M3 E30
- Lancia Delta Integrale 16V
- Opel Omega 3000 24V
- Merc 190E 2.5-16
- Alfa 75 3.0 V6 América
- Renault 21 2l Turbo
- Toyoya Celica GT4
- Subaru Legacy 2.0 Turbo
- Mitsubishi Galant VR4
- Nissan Sunny GTI-R
- Audi S2
- Mazda 323 GTR
Although the Renault and the Mazda got less than 200bhp.......their power amount was near 200bhp, and their performances and efficiency was quite similar to the 200 bhp cars....thats why i decided to add the Renault 21 and the Mazda 323 as well.
Even though the chance to make the decision is very difficult, once the list has a very huge list, and some cars have been the most sportive cars ever.....id like to get your opinion about your favourites cars from this list.........there is no problem if someone chooses two or three cars

Both the Merc 190E 2.5-16 and the Alfa 75 3.0 V6 also produces under 200bhp. They got 195bhp and 185bhp. Both lovely cars though. I got a soft spot for that Cosworth engine in the Merc.

How about a late 90's Mustang GT...4.6L quad cam with 260bhp and 300-odd lb-ft of torque? For that matter the F-body cars had anywhere from 200-320bhp in that time period too.
IF you're talking handling too, the E30 M3 or Sierra Cossie would be my choice, probably the rear drive version of the cossie for that matter.

INTEGRALE!
I can't believe that no one's mention it yet! Its one of my favorite cars of all time. I mean, its just so gorgeous and full of intent, and from what I've heard, insanely fast and well handling.
