Toyota Supra (Mk IV)
The Mk IV Supra's legendary reputation was born out of tuner culture. The car's virtually indestructible 2JZ straight-six can take all kinds of turbo boost with ease, solidifying it as one of the most iconic engines of all time.

Nissan Skyline GT-R
The Skyline's tunability began as soon as people started to realize the GT-R's RB26 straight-six engine could take on massive amounts of power without issue. Like Toyota's 2JZ engine made famous in the Supra, the RB26 has a massive amount of aftermarket support.

Volkswagen Beetle
The original Beetle has been around for more than half a century, and since so many were built, there's a virtually unlimited amount of ways to customize one to your liking. You can go the dragster route, the Baja bug route, or anything in between. The sky's the limit.

Honda S2000
Go to any HPDE event, and you'll likely see dozens of S2000s in the paddock. They're fantastic track cars from the factory, and with some mods, they're even more fun. As with most Japanese sports cars, the levels of customization are limited only by your imagination.

Mazda MX-5 Miata
There's a reason you see so many Miatas at track days and autocross events. They're incredibly fun to drive, and get even more fun once you start slapping go-fast parts onto them. Because it's the most popular roadster on Earth, aftermarket support is endless.
6 of 22
Nissan 240SX
The 240SX's popularity as a drift car means there are plenty of kits, parts, and how-to guides available to make it the best possible car it can be. Find one without rust and you'll be tinkering and upgrading forever.
7 of 22
Subaru Impreza WRX / WRX STI
Ever since Subaru started selling high-performance Impreza variants in the U.S., there have been people modifying them. There's a huge aftermarket for these cars—you can go online and buy everything from an oil change kit to a fully-built engine ready to install.
8 of 22
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution
The Lancer Evolution may be gone from showrooms, but aftermarket support is still as strong as ever. With a solid all-wheel drive system and an engine just begging to be modified, it's the perfect all-weather tuning machine.
9 of 22
Volkswagen Golf/GTI
Of course, if you're more into German cars, the many iterations of Volkswagen Golf built throughout the years have plenty to offer in the way of tuning potential.
10 of 22
Ford Mustang
No matter what generation of Mustang you choose to modify, you have a virtually unlimited amount of support to back you up. It's one of the most popular performance cars in the country, with an aftermarket that stretches back more than 50 years.
11 of 22
Jeep Wrangler
There's a reason most Wranglers you see aren't stock. They're incredibly easy to customize thanks to massive parts support and an ever-growing cult-like fanbase.
12 of 22
Ford Bronco
While the Bronco was just reintroduced to Ford's lineup after a 25-year hiatus, it has a massive amount of customizer support right out of the gate, both from aftermarket brands and Ford Performance itself.
13 of 22
Toyota 86 / Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ
The Toyota-Subaru twins were built with tuning in mind—with extra space in the engine bay and enlarged exhaust pipe cutouts in the rear bumper, the car can accept all kinds of mods right out of the box.
14 of 22
Mazda RX-7
The rotary-powered RX-7 is seeped in JDM tuner culture, meaning plenty of aftermarket support for any mods you can think of. From drift builds to V-8 swaps, there's no limit to the RX-7's versatility.
15 of 22
BMW 3-Series (E30)
The E30-generation 3-Series is a wonderful platform for a build. It's light, balanced, and since it's been around for so long, the aftermarket has solved nearly every problem you can imagine with these cars—turbo kits, suspension packages, engine swap kits, and anything else you can think of.
16 of 22
BMW 3-Series (E36)
As the E30 becomes more and more popular as a full-on classic car, its successor, the E36, is coming into its own as a more affordable choice for those looking for modified BMW fun.
17 of 22
Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST
Ford's hot hatch duo might not be sold in the U.S. anymore, but there's still a bunch of aftermarket support if you're looking for upgrades. Companies like Cobb and Mountune have everything you need to go fast, from tunes, to turbo upgrades, to suspension mods.
18 of 22
Mazdaspeed 3
It might not be as popular as the Miata, but the Mazdaspeed 3 is still a turbocharged hot hatch, meaning there's plenty of opportunities for modifications. Just be cautious of torque steer if you bump the power—the car is already pretty difficult to keep in a straight line from the factory.
19 of 22
Honda Civic
Like the Golf, the Civic has plenty of generations for you to choose from, all of which have tons of available parts and upgrades available, no matter what type of car you're trying to build.
20 of 22
BMW 335i (E90)
It might seem a little strange to see a mid-range BMW on this list, but in reality, the turbocharged N54 straight-six under the hood of the 335i can handle massive amounts of power without a crazy amount of work.
21 of 22
Any Car With a GM LS Engine
GM's line of LS engines is one of the most versatile on the planet. They're cheap to buy and cheap to run, and because so many cars came with them pre-installed (Corvette, Camaro, and Chevy SS, just to name a few), upgrades from third party sources are readily available.
