Everyone dreams of having a unique, fast car to drive through town and on the highway – but it’s a dream because a high-performance vehicle costs more than most people can afford.

You can turn your dream car into a reality on the road with these five used cars that are fun, affordable, and easy to modify.

Ford Fiesta

A Ford Fiesta is a fun little car – it handles well, fits on tight city roads and parking spaces, and can zip down the highway without trouble. It’s inexpensive due to being a small Ford vehicle, too.

And because it’s a Ford, you can take advantage of Ford’s performance-enhancing accessories and OEM tuning and mod options from the motorsports store Mountune USA to make your used Fiesta into a quality speedster.

BMW 3 Series

BMW 3 Series sedans are already made for sports fans and come with high-performance parts and a sleek exterior style. But you don’t have to settle for any old BMW – you can modify it.

Check out BMW-sanctioned manufacturers, like Alpina, who specialize in well-tested upgrades for used cars that still keep them in factory warranty coverage. Find out what a sports sedan can really do by upgrading things like the engine and exhaust.

Jeep Wrangler

Arguably the most naturally-customizable vehicle ever, the Jeep Wrangler is an SUV that’s made to last. You can do anything to it, from removing the doors to changing the roof material.

But what about the performance instead of the appearance? Jeep sells upgrades that include lift kits, aftermarket manufacturers can equip your Wrangler for off-roading, and a great community of Jeep enthusiasts is waiting online to help you figure out your DIY mods, so there’s no shortage of help for you there!

Chevy Camaro

Who doesn’t love a Camaro? Even for people who like Chevy’s sportier models, the Camaro is a great sportscar with a long engine and interior improvement history.

You can find an affordable used car model to work on if you’re careful not to go into true collector territory. Chevy even has a line of performance-upgrading parts specifically for late-model Camaros that you can install yourself!

Ford Mustang

Last but certainly not least, the Ford Mustang is the high-performance car that many people dream about. And it can be yours if you’re willing to buy used models from 1994 to 2014. Vintage models from before then are considered collector models and would cost more than most could afford.

Once you have your Mustang, just go online to find a thriving multi-generation Mustang modification community, get upgrades from well-known tuner companies like Roush, or get mods straight from the Ford Performance line.
