Re: Zander.....
great cars, but cant pull a boat. Neon blah! WRX STI or Evo MR WRX is funny looking but man they are quick cars. My roomate still has his 04 Civic SI hatchback with a japan chip and coldair along with some 18s and its a quick car. The stick is kinda weird though being in the center console.

Re: Zander.....
Skip all the other cars, and wait for the new Skyline GTR. It's not due until 2008, or 2009 I believe, but it'll be worth it. For those of you who don't know the Skyline, you should definitely google it (Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 V-Spec, specifically). For those of you that do know it, the new one (r35) is rumored to have the following:
3.8L twin-turbo v6...est hp 450
AWD
All-wheel steering
Will probably wear an Infiniti badge here in the US.
Said about the r34 in a Motor Trend, "The .91G's the Skyline produces on the skidpad are probably the most useful grip of any car every produced"...Or something to that effect. Considered by many to be the best performance car out of the box.
Or, if you need the family room...find a way to import a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR FQ400. Lancer Evolution with a 400hp 2.0L turbo 4. AWD, Active Yaw Control, and a bunch of other crazy stuff. 0-60 said to come in about 3.8 seconds. But you can justify it by telling your wife "It's got 4 doors!"

Re: Zander.....
Yeah the Skyline is very intriguing....and we have been waiting so long for a variant of the legendary HP king. That car interests me but the pictures thus far haven't impressed me.gdmiller88 wrote:Skip all the other cars, and wait for the new Skyline GTR.

I have two friends that have the current EVO and while the cars scream they are both having a bunch of build quality issues. Both cars are within a year of age and both rattle in different places. But for the price its a lot of car...

Re: Zander.....
Something I forgot to mention...It's been asked what the FQ400 stands for in the name. Well, it's been explained like this: 400 is the horsepower number, and FQ, well, the Q stands for Quick. You can guess the F.Cal wrote:Intriguing... might be time to send an email to Brooklyn Bill or Jun about this one...gdmiller88 wrote:

Re: Zander.....
I guess that shouldn't be surprising considering it's a super go-fast econobox for $35k. Mitsu has never been known for having superior build quality. Although I loved my 95 Eclipse. Wasn't the turbo, but man was it fun to drive. Handled beautifully, and the mpg kept going up as the car got older.Zander wrote: Yeah the Skyline is very intriguing....and we have been waiting so long for a variant of the legendary HP king.

Personally I'm waiting for the Camaro concept to come to life.
Zander, How about this one?
Nice family car. It Can transport you, your wife, couple of kids, and your dog from 0-60 in 6.7 seconds.
