t3kn0e nice posts :D

what kind of car do you have, and what do you want?

given a choice of any car in the world, i'd probably go for an aston martin / tvr / basically it'd be a play off between the uk's best cars.

the best car i've been in would be a ferrari something, but my favourite car would have to be an old aston martin db5 whose engine was totally done over + tuned by the aston martin racing team ;) fuck me it rocked.

anyway over to you :D

(i'm currently car-less)

Damn must blow to have no car, but remember lee..It doesnt matter...

Gods dont need cars.

i do not like to talk about my current car because it is quite embarrassing for an import fanatic like myself... but right now i am aiming for a 300zx or an mr2, both twin turbo. if i had any choice in the world it would probably be a highly modified, supra, nsx, skyline r34gtr, ?or rx-7. im not too picky :), oh or a modded m3. im not really into european supercars though, but i do like the AM v12 vanquish

i like the 300zx, but a friend of mine says a 280zx is faster due to a better power/weight ratio.

yeah but, 280's are ugly as hell, alot older, outdated car. there are more perfomance mods out for the 300, and i like the style MUCH better

yes i have now been reading up on the 300zx. should i buy one with 500 horsepower for 17K USD? pololllol~~ they probably over-exaggerated that but i can dream, right?

17k? thats pretty good... do you have the cash? give me some details, a link to the car would be nice. what mods do they have on it? i can roughly estimate the hp if you tell me the mods. and also if they claim that much hp have them dyno it before you buy it... but yeah 17k is pretty good, especially if they have alot of interior mods and a body kit and stuff...

oh shit! nice find man! that is one of the most stable modded cars i have heard of... i mean he has the turbo upgrades the intercooler, the oil cooler. that is a nice car. the only gripes i have is that its kind of old chassis. i prefer a 93. but yeah dude thats what we would call a "sleeper". or a car that looks just ok fast but is really a powerfull car. this is an advantage to you because you can race slightly modified supras and they will think they will smoke you and you can put 500 dollars on it and fucking own them... if you have 17k i say do it. although that car requeires some maintenece

teknoe i don't really post anywhere much anymore - i'm usually too busy putting something else off...

I always thought that subarus were australian cuz of the croc movie hunter guy...but I found out their jap cars. Anyway you should get a subaru since they are sort of australian or atleast have an australian as the celeb that advertises the one brand of their cars.
