There's just something about the s chassis that I love. All of my friends aspire to have audi's (hopefully not drive like the typical audi drivers though -.-) etc whereas I just want a 200sx. None of them are into cars

Just got rid of my 1999 S3, absolutely amazing car and the quality is still better than 90% of todays cars, have a new shape Fiesta ST now and it doesn't even come close to the quality of the 14 year old S3, missing the 4 wheel drive majorly!
Looking at buying an Integra Type R DC2 import, 1 of the 2 Hondas I'd ever buy, a NSX is kind of out my price range. Older cars are so much better!

Audi's are nice cars i'm not disputing that. It's just the complete w*****s that drive them around here. No respect from other road users, speeding, rude the lot. It might be different in other parts but around here it's horrific.

I love the look of the gt86. I just wish it wasnt only a 2l engine. it had so much potential. Yea its light. But it underpowered. Also I believe Toyota said the chassis could only handle 50 more hp before parts would beed upgrading. So the lightness is accomplished by weakening the flip out of it lol

It seems that there is already a metric butt tonne of aftermarket parts for it, with engine conversion kits being a part of that (especially for a 1jz/2jz engine).

LOL :lol:
Probably would be just as expensive as a real 2JZ engine at this rate though...

No offense but i've always seen the newer mini's as a bit of a womans car along with the new fiat 500's. i don't know why I do but if I see a bloke driving one of them it just looks wierd.

I was going to get an old mini but it wouldn't be reliable enough for the amount of travel i would have to do and i just like the look of minis.

Abarth 500 mate, you seen it ;P?. Now that is a car that looks mad. The same goes for the minis, they seem a bit girly until you change the combo they can look quite masculine. Then again, I'd imagine fitting a massive chin to anything will make it look very masculine.

I mean the standard ones :L The works cooper looks mad and sounds even better.
You sure you'll afford the insurance on a mini though? thought they were quite expensive?

You can get a 52 plate for about £1-2k and insurance is about 1k.

Those skirts need smoothing on that body kit.
£500 car? Insurers see you as a liability to other drivers because they think you're driving a shed that you don't care about.

Seriously :O
Edit: Just did compare the market and it would actually be 2.4k but the car itself would be £1k
