owned one already a 1998… i am far from impressed… my formula will shit on most of the ones aroung here except for mr.fidanza and his fucking twin turbo’ed 427 stroker.

nope… not even close…

I would walk right away from that car and into something else in the price range with similar qualities. There are some many nice cars out there that you can spend that money on.

already looked into the motorex part of this deal… i am going to have the vin number checked for the 5th time on friday…

as far as the “hook up” on parts… i am not talking for the OEM bullshit… whats the point of that? the shop i currently do work for can order me basically anything aftermarket i want for the car… so why should i buy stock when i can buy better?.. or the fact that the owner of fidanza lives next door to one of my good friends…and i have like 10 buddies that make the wiseco pistons that everyone uses…

whats wrong with right hand drive?

and as far as the money goes you are absolutely correct…but as far as i am concerned i am more in it for the looks… i love the way the car looks.

define fast… and justify how you can say it will never be fast?
