Our Cars (dream or actual)

[Haddtoo 555]

A friend of mine went to work for Lamborghini and pulled  up with this one afternoon. That day I flew it around the block, the next day enjoyed a few hours of spirited flogging…Oh My !

He called to extend an invite to a private prerelease showings of its successor the Huracan. It was on display in a studio in SF. Cell phones were held at the door. No photos ! I told him I'll fly anywhere to drive it, Maybe this summer.

This was my old GTI. I put every bolt-on part imaginable on this car. I wanted it to look nice, but not like I had dumped a bunch of money into it to make it fast. It was a sleeper. 350 whp. That's a beast of a VW.

[pillowPANTS]

Nice clean GTI wolf.

[Seul]

Is there an added finish on the paint?.. Looks marvellous!.. Great job wolfie!..

[Aetas]

Nice. Bring that beast over and we go fast on the Autobahn!
What about the sound?

[seawolf]

Stock paint job. I washed it a lot. That picture is from when I lived in Hawaii and it rained every day. I had to keep the car clean or the water spots would be horrible.

The sound. Oh…... The sound. 3" catless exhaust, after market intake manifold, big turbo, exhaust manifold, and some big 500cc injectors. That car was a serious beast.

very shiny you can come and clean all of our cars if you like 

[seawolf]

I used a clay bar to maintain the finish. It cleans the impurities off of the paint.

[harley dave]

this would be in my top ten cars to own especially in this colour

[pillowPANTS]

Lol. Gross

[louisbosco]

stuck between the choice of a 05 beemer 120i and a 04 subie wrx (non-sti). inputs anyone?

[Mild7]

04 wrx is one of my favourite shapes..  Go the scooby.

This coming from an Evo X owner

[Chris]

I agree.  Go with the WRX.

[louisbosco]

yeah. i'm starting to go for the WRX, only concerns are maintenance and modifications, which i figured will be quite high for the beemer than the WRX.

moving to perth in a couple weeks so yeah, cars are way cheaper than singapore, where i am now.

[Mild7]

Mods and maintenance are the hard part with affordable Japanese turbo cars.. Bit there's always exceptions if you can hold out for the right one.

Oh and welcome to Australia

seriously??? i wouldnt have expect that considering i see quite a number of JDM hardcore fans there. i mean if with dont compare them to aussie made cars of course.

cheers!  which part of oz are you from? (presumably eastern states?)

[Seul]

Just buy a Holden…

[Mild7]

^ Clown..

Louis, yeah mate if you're not in a rush, there's always a one (mature) owner gem lurking around.  Mind you I think you may need to broaden your search past WA

Yep, i'm in Melbourne BTW.

Right on. I've owned a WRX and an Evo and I would buy another Subaru without hesitation.
