Other Cars you would have

[jamez707]

just wondering what other cars you would own if we all didn't have cj"s

i myself a few months before i ordered my cj test drove myself
a 1999 toyota supra. if it was in a bit better condition i wouldm't be a member here. (or in so much debt)

but i would of been getting places a lot quicker with a 2jz under the bonnet

i love supras

[ZERO COOL]

Evo 8, Evo X, GTR.

Uh...an Evo X IS a CJ zero lol

I'd be driving a good quality '94 Supra or a 2005 Camry Sportivo. By that, I mean if I could find a good quality 94 Supra, and I chose the CJ over the Sportivo - I didnt consider the CJ until after I saw the Sportivo. Also, a 2006 XR6 was on the cards, but the dealer wouldn't go cheap enough on it - since I bought my CJ, that XR6 has been available for LESS than what we offered for it.

Ok you got me. So then Ill be driving a G37-S, Audi 6.

[Josh_Emerton]

G37-S? sorta reminds me of a gun...lol'

(Heckler Koch G-36 Assault Rifle, G-36C Submachine gun)

Of course I'm not considering CARS like the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera or the Aston Martin DB9S here.

[Josh_Emerton]

Yes, it is. At least I qualify it as a CJ - it's an upscale version of the Base Model Lancer.

CJ Lancer:

ES
VR
VR-X
Evo X
Evo X MR

[Bobcat_GTS]

What does the CJ designation mean anyway?

[jamez707]

lets all assume that we want evo's. after i ordered my cj i found a guy that was imporing evo 8's for cheep (dam it)

[Josh_Emerton]

CJ is the body shape imo

[Tarquin]

CJ is the body shape imo

The CJ model is just the current Lancer shape imo - and that should include the EvoX

It is an Evo X, yes... Just as you're Lancer might be a VRX and mine a VR....

It's like the Commodore VX or VY.... The VY is the new 'model' of the car and within that model it has several levels and steps rising up to the HSV's and V8 Supercars... They're still classed as VY's

What does CJ mean? Who knows.... Car companies do these things... Holden has been running through the alphabet so I'd expect the next shape to be the VZ, I suppose....

They usually just leave out the vowels if they do use this system - hence Mitsu going from CH to CJ

Back On Topic...

What car's would I love to have.....? List is quite long, but what I'd have to have in the stable is;
- Golf GTI (yes, only the GTI... R32 is too heavy and no turbo's... my brother had both, and the GTI is way more fun)
- Nissan GTR (what a sweet car it is)
- Evo X (If I had the money I'd trade up straight away)
- 911 GT3 (Long standing favorite car of mine)
- & I'd also go with Josh's suggestions and get an Aston and the Gallardo....
* Was next to a Spyder version of that the other day.... What a noise it made of the line....!! & it shat on the HSV R8 that gave it a go off the lights.... lol... He'll learn the hard way to try to run against a raging bull

[Josh_Emerton]

It is a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X (not 10), spec CJ MY08.
OR Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X MR, spec CJ MY08.

Tarquin - the new Commodore is a VE?
And they don't leave out vowels - hence the VE Commodore, CE Lancer.
They did leave out the CI Lancer and the VU Cmmodore though. I think it's just they leave out REJECTED body shapes.
And I have a VR, not a VR-X.

OMG I parked next to a red Evo X today...(mine's a red VR)...and I was like...omg I want that hood, spoiler, splitter combo..I dont care about the fenders or the rear splitter but just the front splitter, hood, rear spoiler...omg it looked FANTASTIC.

[Josh_Emerton]

Yeah but I mean it's written as X not 10 sorry, my bad. Still pronounced as 10.
