Keep drooling over Evo X's. A nice Phantom Black 300 SST would be an ideal replacement for my Galant VR4 -



Given the way they have been depreciating I might just be able to own one in a year or two although knowing my luck the prices will start going up again by then.

Good shout but I think will have to tread carefully buying one used.

After catching the Wheeler Dealers with the Lincoln Continental I decided I need one (I wanted one a while back but they "got trendy" with NuMetal bands etc so I kinda forgot about em...)

This one on eBay rides that oh-so-difficult line between classic car and hotrod - to some it will have fallen-off the line, or at least over it - but I like it (the way the rear is lowered gives the car a stance/presence the standard car lacks)

That has a "Morpheus from the Matrix just arrived" feel to it I think ;0

Strange how all the shots are from a distance. Makes me think he's hiding a terrible paint job or something. Or maybe it's just not a very good advert.

It's a 50-year-old car - there will be a LOT wrong with it - ideally not rust or accident damage (most other things are fixable)

More pics would be nice tho - the price also suggests it's not a minter (not easy things to sell but really original ones are worth 2-3 times his number)

A nice lady who I had a chin wag with today showed up in her recently purchased 2014 Subaru Impreza STI, and now I want one bounce

Has to be blue with gold wheels:

Looked fantastic inside and outside, but suprisingly quiet from that 2.5l motor as she moved off.

Garage Queen - silly price - no place on a car forum really, it's an ornament...
If I had the money I'd use her as a daily drive just to annoy the owners club and make me smile.



So basically the same as all the cars I have ever owned.

Some of the F40's had catalytic converters and adjustable suspension. IIRC the non cat non adjust cars are believed to be the better option for the purists.

Sincere apologies to you both - yes, it's epic and getting an extremely rare E38 B12 lwb (there were only two delivered to the UK although a rhd Japanese car has been imported) was everything I wanted for my V12 itch and Alpina need.

Pics.
