I have a '95 Prism LSI (1800cc vs 1500cc non-LSI, and 14" rims instead of
13" non-LSI) as my daily driver (when it's not motorcycle weather). It's an
auto with all the "luxury" items, but still OK on power for what it is.
Just after I got it, I took to an event and did some fun runs to to get a
feel for the limits. Handling was pretty neutral. I tend to do freeway
on/off/connector ramps faster than average and it is stable and
predictable - love leaving unskilled sports car drives in the dust on turns
:-)) Can't really say if a stick version would be competitive.
