Well after a bit of research i know what i want to do.
in about 4-6 months car will be up for sale as i will only owe about 14k hopefully might have a bit of cash so i can break even. then ask bank for a 30k or less loan and im gonna get a 200sx 2001 or 2002 s15. So no mods for my car.... had enough of this fwd POS, not a fan of the driving chariteristics. on a lighter note beat an r31 skyline in a couple drags the other day (non turbo) whats every one elses next car? |

Failing those two, bugger it, an F6 typhoon... |

I have my RS2000 for speed, so my next car I am thinking will be a V8 Jaguar X-Type, in a deep metallic green, with white leather, tinted, lowered, blown, on chrome 20s!

Well, concidering ive got a mortgage to pay, i see my self wioth the fez for at least another 2 years or so.
I wouldnt mind investing into a rebuild of a hot rod ie Ford Deluxe Coupe or a T bucket, just for a weekender. A daily driver, I wouldnt mind getting an old school mini, Audi A3. Dream car - GT500

Im considering a number of things at the moment. I really cant make up my mind about anything. I want a turbo but insurance will eat me. Im goin to have about maybe $25-35k by the end of this year.
This is what im considering: N15 SSS ($12800 with only 95000kms N15 SSS) Would be good as its already blinged up. Stickers would go and get rid of the 18s and put 17s on it. Lift the suspension a bit. R33 Skyline WRX Liberty RX maybe a BMW. (I know of a 93 M3 for $23999 BMW M3) 200SX 300ZX (mm doesnt look likely) SV6 If i could afford it an VW R32 GOLF but they are like $50000 used. |

I'd keep the Focus as a daily driver, and get an Ariel Atom if they can sort out road compliance issues (is road registerable in NZ)
If I want a "peel your eyelids back" boys toy, that's the one.(supercharged 300bhp, about $60,000 + in Oz)

I'll keep my Fiesta for good, unless the ST does show up over here. Then I'd buy a new ST and be very happy!
But my second car will have to be a red RX8 with the Mazspeed body kit, love that car...
