The corolla needs fender rolling. I'm rubbing like a mofo. I wouldn't daily drive the corolla cuz of the new paint job. dont want rock chips.

The bmw is falling apart on me. I need a new clutch. I heard this metallic whining sound when i'm driving between 2-3k rpm. The passenger window is broken, cant use that. The front left brakes make funny clicking sound when braking. I took it to the local shop here and they couldn't figure it out.
the rear window trims on both side is coming off. No bad water leak yet..
And here's something new that happened this week. Front windshield trim flew off when I was driving. It started cracking about 2 yrs ago. Now I have 2 places on the bottom thats missing trim cuz it had completely came off. I hope the windshield stays in place...

The 350z is nice, but the subie or evo is gonna give you more bang for you buck with aftermarket support, and modding the 350z gets exspensive quick. Soooo yea evo x or bust :chuckles:
what kinda issues does the RX8 have besides engine?

yea the trims on the STi will have to come off. I 'm not a fan of chrome trim. I'm neither a rapper or a middle aged white man. The taillights will be tinted. Already found a place to do it.

STi and you won't regret it

It's incredibly fun to drive and the all-wheel drive is amazing.

to be honest with you, i dont think i can handle a high powered FF car. So I probably have to stick with a GTI. I could barely handle a mini cooper S when driven hard. I think I'm just too used to the FR layout

yea i really wouldn't mind driving something different from what I have right now. Thats one of the reasons I'm looking into these cars. Always wanted a turbo. Always wanted a high revving engine.

I chose the Z it would be an all around car for me...year round daily driver.

Good luck finding a supra that hasn't been run to shit.

And if you can find one it's a pretty fucking penny that could be spent on a brand new STi.
