Dude, so your opinion of porsche is based on you driving a boxster? :picard: What I don’t get is why did you even buy an S13 if you seem to hate it so much, you should have just continued to save up money and bought yourself an exotic or something. And if you said you bought your 240 mainly for the performance aspect of the car. Why did you put so much money into getting it repainted, etc? Or did you buy it because you watch a lot of hot version and option videos? I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinions but you seem to be biased towards expensive cars. The 0-60 doesn’t make a car what it is. The exterior alone doesn’t make an exotic what it is. You better learn dat. > [@Good polish restaurant?](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/good-polish-restaurant/11980/7): > > I drove one of the early boxsters actually, but unfortunately not a 911.

The old 911s before the turbos were slower than the crappiest of civics, but they still look sweet. I personally love every 911 since 70s-early 90s. When they changed the front lights… I hated it. The new 911 though went back to the older like designs which are awesome. Then of course the 959… I wish I could even see that car in person… > > By the way before buying a 240, I was going to get an mr2 (mk1 or mk2, although I was disillusioned at only getting the mk1 despite its ultra ugliness) and a porsche 944 turbo s ---

All the talk here made me go check out the Lotus dealership on a way home from school. Those cars are so sexy. Too bad nobody came near me. Exotic car dealers can smell poverty and they are afraid it’s contagious. One cool thing though, is they didn’t come out to watch me. They just left me be to do my thing. Unfortunatly the Exige’s were locked. And boy do they make the Esprit’s look like ass haha. ---

Edit! but shit yeas the lotus is nice. ---

Lolocaust! This thread is stupid. Swap in an LS1, put on coils, good tires and you’re immediately a match for most supercars. Except for maybe the: Enzo, CGT, Koenigsegg, Zonda and 1 or 2 more top echelon cars, Adam’s car can lay the beating on pretty much anything. Z06 Vettes very much included. ---

its ok, the owners of those cars get back at me when i realize how much money they have and how hard its goign to be to become that successful. i had a conversation wtih nick majors at the track (guy who drives the viper competition coupe) he goes something along the lines of “everyone has their talents, i made a successful buisness and now im trying to catch you punk kids (me and malcolm) racing. Now all you have to do is grow that shop of yours” im like god damn hes right. i can drive but that doesnt mean shit, teh real question is whether or not i can make it in the world ---

Not much can compete with having a successful business as far as doing what you want to do. Just keep the business & pleasure balance happy and you’ll do fine! 🙂 ---
