danmangt40 08-04-2001, 11:36 AM yeah man, I love that spyder vr4... one of the spoiled kids in my hs had one, I couldn't believe it... it was like 60+ K new.... loved that thing. bastard never let me drive it... dan Chris 08-04-2001, 09:02 PM I saw an M3 yesterday, it was yellow. My mom couldnt understancd why someone could want 333 hp (her: "Where could you use it???" me: "wherever the hell you want!! Or a racetrack") being in a Suburban might have influenced her to saw that, what with its 180hp and 6000lbs. Also saw a Diable drive by, but I'm hesitant because it might have been a replica. There are too many replicas out there.

Pennzoil GT-R 07-26-2002, 10:48 AM England, we dont get any restrictions on imports so we get any cars we want here. Wish there were a few more Mustangs, only Mustang i ever seen is an old 1970's type thing. the best two cars there, the F40 and the 1914 Roll's are both owned by the same people and i know them. they also have a 600hp road legal (somehow) racing Escort Cosworth. Thats easy the fastest car on the list. border_project 07-27-2002, 12:57 PM ferrari 360, 355, f40 lamborghini countach, diablo aston martin DB7 Lotus Elise, esprit Tons of porsche toyota trd aristo, altezza, mr2, supra topsecret skyline r33 jun hyper lemon evo V subaru sti impreza, legacy twinturbo honda nsx, civic type r, integra type r nissan skyline r34, r33, r32, silvia s15 mitsubishi evo IV, V, VI 2000 Mazda RX7 |Banchi1O5| 07-27-2002, 11:34 PM Originally posted by Pennzoil GT-R .
