Giving the civic I'm driving back to my buddy when he gets back from Afghanistan in March/April. He let me use it since he got less than a weeks notice he was leaving and couldn't take it home. Needs new tires and another oil change by that time.

For myself, if I can get a loan, fuck my credit, I'm looking to pick up an 05-06 rsx-s. If not then a 94-95 gsr will suffice.

I'm looking for 4 cars now, If I find one of them in good condition, good color and the price is right I'm pulling the trigger.

04-05 Subaru WRX sedan/wagon
04-05 Acura TSX 6-speed
03-05 RSX Type - S
02-05 Lexus IS 300 5-speed

Unfortunately I keep finding automatic models or shit that's too far away. Spring can't come fast enough.

My plans:

1) Sell G20 asap

2) waffle back and forth some more about selling the civic :hs:

3) Lots of stuff for the truck: motor swap (thinking 7mge at the moment, NA supras can be found CHEAP!), repair rust in the bed, paint and bodywork (DIY, nothing fancy), rebuild/beef up front axle, dual transfer cases, sleeping platform with integrated fold-down seats, rhino line interior and fill holes in floor. This probably wont all be accomplished this year.

4) Detail, polish up, clean up upholstery in the Saabaru, brakes and maybe some other stock-friendly (autox) mods.


:edit: how the hell did I end up owning 4 cars? :thinking:

I'm going to put in an intake and exhaust system in the 9-5 Sport Combi...maybe some new wheels.
Downpipe and tune. Full length catback isn't really necessary, but a downpipe will free up a lot of power. Also, aftermarket intakes really don't do shit for saabs. All my saab buddies make over 300whp with a stock intake.
