most likely not for another year, but when it comes out (supposed to be this spring) the Acura TSX. Or, if I want car payments I could get a BMW 3 series or Lexus IS300. Kinda would rather save for a condo or something though rather than a vehicle.

I'm going to stick with my 240sx until I'm done university too. Hopefully the degree will fund the dreamy 350z into my garage.... Thats in about 4 years time though....
I've always wanted to undertake a 4 door, mid 90's Acura Integra as a project car. A friend of mine poured around $40,000 into his, and it was one of the nicest Acura's I've ever seen in Calgary. Of course that was before it was stolen....

I've never heard of the GTI R337.

Personally, since I just bought a new car. I think my next would be something I can work on during the winter and drive all summer, preferabbly a Porsche 944

Ben

10-01-2002, 02:17 AM

Basic fo'sure. I'm not a fan of most leather (feels nice in really upper class cars, like my parent's volvo) Sunroofs are basically uselesss IMO, Keyless entry is useless.
My Ranger is real basic. 60/40 cloth non-reclining split bench, no power windows or locks, factory 1 CD stereo, cruise, A/C, power mirrors. I don't complain, even on long hauls to/from vancouver. only thing I'd like extra is maybe a bit nicer stereo, and I could easily loose the power mirrors and A/C.

Next project car, although probably not for another year or 2:

72 - 80 Porsche 911 Targa
E30 M3
E36 M3

Assuming that I can find one in a condition that I like, for the right price. :) Although, I'm getting tempted by all the nice Mercedes that I see recently to venture into a SLK or AMG.... :drool:

10-01-2002, 01:13 PM

I inquired about the 350Z. If you are serious, there is a 30person waiting list at the moment and they are only getting 3 cars/month. Needless to say I'd get on that list fast if you are serious.

That's a sweet pic of the Elise dude....he has the same spark plug wires as I do! NGK Power!:thumbsup:

-EVO 7 would be kick ass if it ever comes out.

Nothing else in north america...

But a datsun 510 with a SR20DET swap would be totally fun. Yes it's possible and been done lots.Nothing would be more satisfying the destroying a 11 second supra in the quarter with a cheesy little datsun.

Well I have a few that would be a good possibility as a used car in a few years.

350Z or G35c
Late gen 3000GT VR4

But one that I am defianatley looking forward to trying to get is a 90-93 Pulsar GTi-R. If I can source a '90 I could have one as soon as Jan 2005........I figure you could probably land one on Canadian soil for less than 7000 right now. In a few years if there are any around still in Japan who knows how cheap.

I don't know, the look to it has a certain charm, unlike a Civic, very much a sleeper look. But definitely fun to have and spank some Hondas with.

If you are looking for a GS-R in the spring let me know. My buddy is looking to sell his '92.

Otherwise a very sweet, rare car.
