2 Door Datsun 1600. Actually I would have 2, one original, one with a mental amount of work done to it :twisted:

Plenty of others, R31 Skyline 2 door. Mazda Familia GTR, EVO III, IX and X... list goes on :lol:

I would personally love a current generation Lotus Exige with a HKS Turbo Kit for a bit more fun.

In my dreams (won Lotto): '69 Chev Camaro, '67 Ford Mustang fastback, Ford Torino, '77 Trans Am Firebird, Lambo Miura and/or Ferrari Daytona.
In reality (if I wasn't driving the RA): either a MkV GTI or a Focus XR5
HKS/AMS/GFB/MRT/K&N/DBA
Whiteline/Ultra-Racing/Rexpeed/Autometer/Yokohama Racing/Cusco
...and some other stuff which the fun police don't approve of... :)

I wanted an MG ZT either the supercharged version or the v8 version. Either one of them is hard to get hold of as only a small amount came here. When I decided to buy a car it was down to either an Audi A3 or a Lancer. Got Lancer instead. I had my cars bodykit before I had the car. I was determined to get a Lancer :lol:

Did want a v35 Skyline GT but that was out of my price range at the time. They have come down since though. Wont ever own an Evo, dont like them honestly cant stand the Evo X. It dont look hard enough and now anyone can buy them... Dont like turbo either so thats maybe why I dont like them.

Want a Lotus Elise though, supercharged. White, yellow or charcoal colour. Black wheels and fixed roof. I like the Elise more than the Exige. If I had the money, would get a TVR T350 and a 1939 Lincoln Zephyr Coupe.

Dont like soft looking cars.

Realistically a Ralliart would be nice, in silver, similar to Lethal_1's, but with different wheels (Sry Lethal :D )


However,

Ooooh, a 428. what sort of hp were you getting out of that?

i think it's an LS, but not 100% on that. it's been modded for track work, including nitrous. Although i can't get the owner to drive it on a track, he's keeping it as an investment :roll:
in it's former life it was obviously a track car!

Proberly a wise idea as an investment.
The 428 was built for around 600hp/600ftlbs but with good street manners in mind. Only time I put it on the dyno I had fuel pump probs but still hit 380hp at the rears at just under 3000rpm.

Evo X looks soft compared to all other Evo's against the normal Lancers. Honestly how many normal CJ Lancer owners get asked is their car an Evo?? I just cant get into the new Evo. Dont like it

I was going to get a Hyundai i35 Diesel or a Lancer, the killing point was at the time the i35 had no cruise control on the diesel. But if my CJ were to be written off now I'd probably just settle for an i45 (once Hyundai fixes the steering/handling of it) and apart from a stereo not mod it.

probably, but would still be fun to see it on the track! :P

not bad, not bad... *hides jealousy* :)

i agree with this to some extent. for a 60-70k + car, they could have given the X a bit more "edge" over the standard lancers & the RA. i wouldn't call the RA soft though, the front grille gives it a rather "mean" stance i think.

i took my RA to a car comp last weekend, and from the outset a fair few people were mistaking it for an evo, even though it's stock - and even after it was parked next to a TMR track evo X! lol.

but looks aside, the extra cost for the evo is really for what you can't see - and that still makes the evo a winner imo. i'd have one for the track any day thanks :)

Something achievable was an RX8 but my boys keep telling me to forget the rotary. We had a 1979 Series 1 RX7 and it was heaps of fun but rotaries are fickle creatures. We'll see about the RX8.

I see someone wanted an old Datto 1600. Or two. We used to have one. My Dad was a panel beater and he did one up in the 80s. It was a write off before he got to it. I used to love driving around in it. Mum made him trade it in on a newer car. It broke his heart. And mine.

I'd really love to get my 1973 929 Coupe back again. Loved it. And my 1970 Mini K 1100.

Now if I wanted something that wasn't achievable I'd have an Audi RS4 or an R8.

I was gonna buy an fg XR6 but didn't want to spend that much on a first car.
