My suggestion on a good, peppy, fun DD is anything with a 4A-GE: 1st gen MR2, Corolla Sport GT-S (came in both FWD and RWD flavors), or a Corolla FX16.

RWD Corollas were made up through '87 - the ones you'd be looking at are the 85-87 GTS (ae86 chassis). These are waaay overpriced due to being high in demand by drifters. Expect to pay over $3k for a clean one (though you can get the carb'd SOHC SR5 version for about $500, I had one and loved it for a DD, poly bushings made it a wee bit stuff). The FWD corollas (ae92 chassis) are '88 and '89, and the last of the 2-door corollas. The FX16 is also a FWD, made in the mid-80s, I think 86-89. Basically it's the toyota equivalent of a Civic Si Hatch.

1st gen MR2s can be found in a factory supercharged version, too.

If you want an eclipse, do yourself a favor and get the Turbo AWD 2nd gen.
