Well, I think its starting with 86 they had forged pistons and block (I think) thru 92 I think. Most people will say get the notch cause its a bit lighter I think than the others.

I think the hatch has more sex appeal though.

I know for a fact the 93's had less power. 87-92 is probably your best choice power wise

Power means nothing if you plan to do anything to it. All that really changed between the years was the cam as far as performance goes. Don't by a car based on performance, as chances are you'll be changing that anyways. I like the 92+ cars, which is a personal preference, updated interior and they come with the mini-starter from the factory. Not because I own one, my car started out as an 87, and I converted it to a 92, rear seat belts, front shoulder belt mounting position & air bags were all added to my 87 to convert it fully to a 92. Not to mention all the electrical came out of a 92.
