Nice choice of cars there, think Supra. :) I am not one for the 5th generation, type s (purely due to the headlights).

[macca]

Widebody Supra's are very rare, and bloody expensive to do! :(

That one is exceptionally wide though!!

[AndysR]

None of the above get an NSX ;) :D

[lambo-lude]

ang ..the 5 gen front can be changed to a 4th ..wings bonnet headlamps bumper and a lil tinkering :)

macca..i got a few quid and the time to get it done ..but not a fan of rwd :rolleyes:

astra 2.0 turbo redtop 6spd
alfa 75 3.0 24v

Seems a massive thing to do on the prelude to change the front end but yes it can be done.

If you are after petrol and performance the preludes are excellent.

MMmmm GTO, although ours needs a few bits doing but then it only cost us £500,it is a mindblowing drive. The sound, drive and acceleration are amazing. I would say that comes a tie with the manta v8 as a favourite.

Petrol is pretty reasonable on long drives. To JAE and back with a little detour to help someone out it only cost £60 in petrol. Local driving its very expensive but well worth it :cool: That's not the one off pistonheads is it?

Alfas on the whole are damn nice to drive but most develop serious problems. Seen far too many with problems.

200sx s14, nice cars, as you know many end up with head problems. S13s we find a pain in the arse ;). Although we have one still :rolleyes: as they are also amazing to drive.

Astra redtop turbo sounds a nice one.

Don't be put off cars like the toyota gt4s as they are lovely to drive as well, finding a good one and you won't be having loads of repairs. That can be hard to find though. I loved my st185.

To be honest though once you've driven a gto you won't want any of the others. :D

[lambo-lude]

think its a 2 horse race over
nissan 300zx twin turbo t-bar in black ..kitted
or
mitz gto 3.0 tt 6 spd in white or red + lambo doors :d

im not after massive power ..around 350bhp would be fine
its gonna be a poseing wagon rather than a speed freak :cool:

[macca]

Just to throw a spanner in the works, I've driven a GTO and I just don't like them :pah:

[Kerry_T-5R]

ooh! i found these:)

3.0 24v twin turbo 4x4 with 6 spd option :D

I have always quite liked the GTO's since the Gran Turismo 1 days - but christ - look at the wheel arch gap of this one!! Sod lowering it 40 mm this one needs to be lowered 400 mm!

Kerry

[lambo-lude]

hummm? speedhumps!?

but yeah... set of 20s and a 40-60mm drop :)
ive driven one already and it was ok ... me and 2 mates all had 3.0 twin turbos and blasted over to wales
supra, gto and zed :eyes:

[AndysR]

To be fair the GTO or 3000GT if its a uk car aren't a cheap car to run and the active aero usually siezes and fails, if you share driving with friends make sure they have no legs as the rear seats are useless tbh it's better to forget that it is a four seater!
If you want a Mitsi get an Evo just as expensive but quicker, handle better and will be better on fuel when your not gunning it, the only thing to look out for on an Evo is make sure the clutch is biting at a reasonable height on the pedal and isn't juddering otherwise its a grand for a new one and you WILL need to replace the flywheel at the same time. Plus its a four door so is more practical. ;)

But in fairness I still say NSX all the factory parts are available from Honda dealers and there are plenty of them dotted about the uk ;)

[macca]

NSX's are nice, but they have massively over-inflated prices.

[AndysR]

NSX's are nice, but they have massively over-inflated prices.


Yeah I guess although its all relative as they will probably still be massively over-inflated when the time comes to sell but obviously at a fraction of the original purchase price! :p

[macca]

Yeh true. I've never driven one so don't really know if they're as good as they're supposed to be. I just think you can get more car for your money elsewhere. Nothing against the NSX though, it's an amazing piece of engineering.

Brilliant drive and sounds exactly like a super car should, I doubt you would be disappointed ;)

[macca]

Fingers crossed I'll get a chance to drive one one day, it's certainly on my list of things to try! :)

[lambo-lude]

your both right...
you can get faster and more car for your money ...but if you want something far more exclusive then nsx is for you :)
there was a supercharged one kicking around brighton way :drool:
i would love one but feel at this stage i would ruin it lol
i would need to spend 25k on buying a goodun ..and another 5k on bits
so maybe when im richer :p
