Talking Official I want a real car thread

so this is for those of us cuising in our parents rides or with none at all. I myself only have a permit but occaisionally use my moms old RL alone. today actually my mom was dropping me to school and drag raced a RSX-S with the E46 330i. at 75MPH at 6K in 3rd she decided it was enuf.

well I want a 1989-90 Nissan 240SX fastback and SR20 swap. but my dads the one paying for it and it has to be reliable for 6 years so probly a FWD honda, at best a new base RSX. I have 2500$ for a 240 but not for insurace or engine swap.

so whats your story?
do your Xmods satisfy your greed for speed on slowstreet?

No 15 MPH car could satisfy my thirst for speed.

Maybe an old AE86 or a fifth-gen Honda Civic, although my uncles '98 Ram wouldn't be bad. By the way, he said he'd sell it to me when I'm 17.

When you get a car, get something cheap and reliable. Honda's are great, and I say this from Bias and Experience. Depending on the car, they have pretty okay performance, get good gas (you will worry about that when you pay for it), are somewhat safe, parts (rice and replacement) are cheap..

Then there is insurance and who pays for stuff. You might also want a decent sized rear seat if you can't bring girls home...

I've raced Mustangs, RX-7's, RSX-S's. I take them all. Nothing beats a super light car that is stick-driven. Rev it up and drop the clutch, then shift at the rev-line is what I do. The Fart-Can-Look exhust pipe makes people go easy, then they look suprised..

Oh, but get a manual car. It's better.

I started with a 92 Corrado VR6, Blew it up, and Rode a bike,
Saved for a month or so, and I knew a friend that had a nice G60 for sale, went a grabbed it for 3 grand. Man did that bike kick my ***.

Turbo'ed the Rado, Sold it, Turbo celica in my hands,
Had that for almost 2 years, Miss it yet, But I own a evo so its all good.

I hope your getting a bloody bank to pay for gas....

Donz, you can't get your Moto-License until you are 18...

What's with the Motor-Swap thing? Trust me, whatever your car comes with is enough. I'm sitting on about 80hp and I can pull cars with 200hp+. It's not all about HP, it's about the torque curve and when you get that power. There is also reliablilty, gas milage (big thing when you're a kid), insurance cost, and the money required to do it.

And then there is the safety element. It is a question of when you will crash, not if. You will. I've been getting lucky (no ABS) and hardly avoiding things. Is the said car good enough to protect the lives of you and your loved ones?

You have to remember, sporty cars will be driven to hell and back. I drive my car hard, and I love it. Stands up to the abuse...

We should get Tex's (non-anti-Honda) opinion for you guys too...

EDIT:
Donzii, Monster is for pussies. You need to get some BAWLS.

haha I have DROVE a 1000rr, my uncles. he has like 15 bikes i think? he has 2 rare motto guzzi's, a custom Arlen Nes chopper, Triumph Sprint 955fi, BSA 220?, Triumph bonneville, CBR1000RR, those where just off the top of my head. And yea the 64 impala is my cousins, he supercharged it, put on some shorty headers, got a dual carb, etc. I talked to him and he said he might give it to me. He already has 2 Audi's that are tuned to the freaking max! here's the bike I want, and the impala is the same color as my cousins.

So? I can still drive it when I'm 16; just not legally. There's plenty of private road up by my cottage where I could drive it legally without tickets or police having their hair in knots.
