I only liked Minis in the Italian Job haha.

What are you looking at? (realistically)
Minis are cute.
Honestly, not looking at cars right now.
But I do want an evo in the future - when I do decide to get my first car.

Same here. 94' model Corolla. Makes funny noises when the steering is at full lock, it doesn't go into second half the time so i occasionally have to skip from 1st to 3rd. And no joke I have to put about 3 liters of oil into it every three weeks.Oh and the first time I went over a speed bump in it the keys fell out of the ignition, but the engine remained on.
your cv joints are fucked

u arse you never gave me a ride in the tuned spec
LOL bugger. All the other guys on AUSCA came for a ride- in the wet. Still pulled hard in any gear.


I really want one as my first. :(
Maybe in black? The red looks really good though.
No you don't. Evo's are shit to live with and they are not good for amateurs. Heck, even in stock form I thought it was way too powerful for me (coming from a Civic 1.8L).

No money for an Evo :(
Save up- I worked full time for 3 years since high school and invested my savings so that I could get one at 21. Not the most rational thing to buy with all your savings but hey it was fun.

I like 335I coupe.
Nice choice- I really rate the E92 design and it still looks fresh now. Who knows, maybe it'll drop in price on second hand market!

I would like a 1967 Chevrolet Impala, but I'll settle for a Volkswagen Golf

Then why'd you bump up the power from stock then? ;)

It felt too fast when I test drove it and when I was driving it home from the dealer.

... but after a couple of track sessions and owning it for a year, I felt the need for more power and hence went with the intake/exhaust/custom dyno tune route yielding a nice bump up from about 165kW to 240kW. Enough to break traction in the dry.

How much was your one when you bought it?
The Evo X MR was $70k brand new driveaway from Alto Mitsubishi during GFC (i.e. $15k off sticker price and what Parramatta tried to sell it to me a demo for). The Benz had a similar sticker price but my bargaining powers got me nowhere near the Evo price unfortunately.
