first of all....why and from who are you getting a brand new free car? secondly, why are you thinking about buying a new car and then swapping the engine out right away?....one good point....getting away from a civic for power reasons.
I drive my dads gen1 taslon tsi....I like it, but i can tell the engine and turbo are getting very beat up...theres' prolly 165K on'em but i can definately see the potential of a newer engine being rebuilt. but 1991 isn't exactly new. I'm going for a 240SX when i get the money to do it.

I can't say i have ever really looked at newer cars. I could see driving the 350Z...new BMW m/3 series...

overall i can't believe someones talking about getting a brand new lexus's and nissan's for free for some dam reason

A point i forgot to mention - gas milage will suffer each time you modify your car (unless u just do an air filter, but who does that and doesnt get bit by the performance bug?).

Lets put it this way - dont get a honda if you wanna break any landspeed record. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .unless you can get a Twin Turbo NSX - j/k :cool:

Yea, i was thinking of the supra, but the insurtance :o

What would the TT supra's insurance be in comparison to the STi's?

TweaK 03-24-2003 11:16 PM

omfg dude get a lancer evo 8 sexeh sexeh im buyign one ^^

TeriyakiBroccoli 03-24-2003 11:19 PM

im guessing it'd be higher.

SVT Cobra 03-25-2003 12:57 AM

opak.. do you even know what kind of cars you like?

this is the most random post. get a z06 you spoiled brat. who cares what your insurance will be? like you're paying for it.
go get a quote from an insurance company. lets see... brand new car $35000 or old ass car $45000 new. the newer car will cost more on insurance, both costing about the same new.

do u even have your license yet??

Racing Rice 03-25-2003 07:26 AM

Opak,

Any high performance car is going to cost you a bunch for insurance.. BMW, Lexus, Mercedes.. These cars usually cost considerably more for insurance.

A friend bought a '97 BMW 328i, his insurance went up a bunch from the '99 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (Supercharged one for those of you who dont know.)

If your worried about insurance, you better check first. Because it will go up, and probably a lot more then you would think. Civics are cheap to insure. Thats the price you pay for performance.

ChrisCantSkate 03-25-2003 08:20 AM

a supra TT will rape you, if they even give you insuarance. it will probobly be over 350 a month since if i remeber your only 16. and if you have any tickets... it might not be worth even checking


*edit* im assuming you are getting full coverage, cause when you wreck that car(yes when you do) you want to be able to get something back from it

keystone 03-25-2003 08:29 AM

I dont know anyone that would insure a 16 old in a supra, 300zx,RX-7, or any of these other cars mentioned, if they would the rates would probably be around $6000/year or more. I ave a rather good idea about the insurace biz, since my mother used to sell the stuff.

BTW, i know lotsa peeps say this, adn you never really give a strait answer, but...

You don't like imports, you bash them all the time, and you curently drive a domestic, so...What the F*** are you doing on a honda forum?

ChrisCantSkate 03-25-2003 06:43 PM

i must agree with SVT though, a z06 would own. it is my top pick of cars under 50k from a performace standpoint. i would only take a m3 over one for luxory reasons. performance, hands down z06 pqwnz j00

well you asked on insurace for a supra TT which can be upto 40k for a clean stock low mile one... and if you go to chevy with money and intent to buy, i bet you can get a z06 for under 50k, i know my friends dad did

yea, i guess, but again, i want an import...

I was talking to my dad last night, and he is warming up to the STi :yes:

So, i might just end up going with the STi

zm_dawg 03-25-2003 08:45 PM

its kinda wierd how you say you want an import....do you want an import to have an import, for the import scene or what.....cause it's like you really have no clue what kind of car you want...i don't know....whats the occasion for your father to waste this type of money?

Seriously - you should just get the kinda car you want - dont let us tell you what to get - just MAKE THE CHOICE YOURSELF.

There is no reason for you to go on for 5 or so pages about what car you want - do you wanna make us jealous since you are getting a free car?

LoL, i think thats what we are all wondering - OPAK, just get what you want.

wheresmylicense 03-25-2003 09:26 PM

solution: twin turbo supra... you could mod it like mad... i once saw this supra, it was like 400 hp... freakin crzy if you ask me... one nice car...

TeriyakiBroccoli 03-25-2003 09:47 PM

hehe this thread is hilarious...

how come your threads always get a lot of replies?

Zanza 03-25-2003 10:34 PM

If your 16 anything is going to cost you a lot to insure no matter what. So insurance shouldn't be a issue if your looking for a car with potential/preformance. If insurance is the issue then just get a Civic and stop talking about insurance.

Now that is out of the way, just listen to what just about everyone else already said.

Damn you and your free car :|

we've already established insurance would be too much, and 400hp out of a supra is kinda weak... they come with 320 stock, and the bottom end can hold almost triple that before needing to be beefed up.

japanese import....well then close your eyes and roll the mouse around and whatever it lands on you buy....

I don't want anything at all....besides some posts that make sense and can actually be answered...everyone's said all these cars and you come back sayin well my dad wants the STI....

straight lines and rallying?....get a hyundai....if you said that in the beginning i'm sure everyone would've been like a subaru

poor kid has no money and wants a fast car and daddy comes to the rescue because doesn't want to see sonny boy upset....nice dad maybe? spoiled kid.....prolly....crashes "daddy's" car while trying to do what you see on the speed channel....for sure...daddy does it all over again.....priceless ha

jealous i won't start.....wait until the real world hits you upside the head....or maybe you'll always be on the titty

:cool:

K yea, if i knew what car i wanted, then why would i ask you, i left the title of 'japanese import' broad for a reason, so that i could take suggestions you idiot.

you don't know the story behind why my grandpa is buying me a car, so shut your mouth you ill informed F***.

so what will happen when the world hits me up sie the head? You don't know me, or how i am, or what my life is like, so keep your mouth shut.

yea, i have a name for people with attitude like yours: its called, car envy.

'87 integra 03-26-2003 08:29 PM

at first your dad was buying you a car???...now all of a sudden your grandpa is buying you another car???...so your gonna get 2 cars.....why not a ferrari??....maybe a porsche??....or have your dad ship a skyline over.....lol..

nonovurbizniz 03-26-2003 09:00 PM

WHATEVER.... like any of you worthless bastards would refuse a free car...


stop being jealous little b*tches... if my dad grandpa or some dirty old man wants to buy me a car I'm IN.

Thank you.

zm_dawg 03-27-2003 02:36 AM

i wouldn't be so quit to call someone a jealous b*tch....would I accpet a free car....sure if i won it in a lottery....but I would never expect one or ever dream of a family member sayin alright lets go to the car lot....and then to think about a new STI or somethin comparable $30K +....i'd be happy with a moped....

car envy....isn't really an attitude....I haven't been into cars since the last year or so....so I can't say my attitude is based on that....there's always going to be a better car then yours unless daddy and papi want to keep you happy forever.....

another thing is...the thread isn't called "japanese import"....

your right....i know nothing about you....but i know your letting whoever and whatever....maybe your sister or grandma by now buy you a car....a new car....and not a civic....but a $33K STI...how bout an Elantra....$10K....that prolly isn't good enough though huh?

honestly.....know nothin about you....but i get my opinion too....

so this all makes me....."car envy"....

You know what kinda car you want yet?
