i want rwd!

[Straight Success]

Yeah, he can afford to buy it... but could he afford to maintain and repair it? It's probably twice his age, and for that price, you can be sure it's not fully restored. It'd be pretty awesome, I agree. I like the old styles myself, especially when I see a young guy driving one. Shows he has classic taste! Still, I make good money, and I don't feel that even I could afford to own a car like that, unless I wanted to watch it rot away in my driveway.

You know how I'd love to buy an R32 GTR... Mayberry is constantly sending me links to R32 GTRs for sale in the tri-state area, many registered and insured (and legal) in NJ... for a price that I could afford. BUT, I couldn't afford to maintain and repair such a car. Therefore, I have never purchased one.

I guess sometimes I can be ignorant to that. I sometimes forget this is a costly hobby of ours. I've been so focused on building capital and researching/preparing for my future real estate plans that I forgot to take into account additional expenses.

I guess I'm just one who gets bored, not quick, but I get bored. I like to see creativeness, originality, and differences that wow me. I think that's why I'm so into my CB 'cause it's not the norm where I'm from. I also enjoy it too. I've seen so many of the cars listed a million +1 times, that it makes me look for something "new!" Not that there's nothing wrong IMO about the aforementioned cars.

I agree. For the longest time, I wanted to get a Saab Sonnet. Weird little things that had V4 engines in them (yes, an actual V4...)
Different is awesome, but you have to pay to play when it comes to cars. The more original you are, the more it's going to cost you (if you want it to be reliable, attractive, and safe, that is!)

Good guess, but I think it's an '80. The article on it suggest it's and '80. You can read about it on Google. I'm wasn't trying to prove you wrong in anyway, so hopefully you don't take it that way.

BTW, do you have fun with them, or are they your DDs?

Cheap... Drift machine

[JustSomeGuy]

i want a rear wheel drive car dont get me wrong i love my front wheel car but i wanna go sliding around!!!!

what would a good rwd cheap car be. like im talking 2500 or less. and prob older style. i love old cars! one with lots of upgrade options. maybe v6, or 4 or 4 if turbo possible.

oh oh maybe i can get another accord and then get a s2000 engine and custom fit it and make a drifting accord with f20c. now that would be awesome!!!

Drunken post?

what is not fun about rotaries? they take no time to pull apart, fairly easy to put back together, a lot less parts to fool with.

mazda's oem apex seals are pretty much the best there is. there are companies that make "stronger" apex seals, but ask yourself, would you rather blow apex seals, or ruin your rotary housing, because its one or the other, i personally would rather have to replace seals. there's nothing wrong with mazda's seals, apex seals just happen to be part of over-time wear and tear.




what?

i would much rather have rotary aviation's ceramic apex seals. it is not one or the other, you must be thinking of carbon apex seals vs iron
