My new ride...

Not a huge fan of non turbo 350's, cool car though. I am buying an 87 Supra turbo in the next few days.

LoL cause I had work on Mid-Day Friday! I drove 36 hours in a 48 hour period - came home and slept for a few hours, then went to work lol.

Yea Emerica I had originally wanted the car in black but I was buying used so all the blacks were pretty much garaunteed to be broken in with your standard swirly looking black finish... That and silverstone is 9999x easier to keep clean =D

Very nice. Congrats, I've never driven one but I hear they're really fun cars.

Yea it's so fun; especially coming from a 00 automatic cougar... This is actually the first stick shift I've ever seriously touched, and I had to learn to drive it in the middle of noon rush hour (bumper to bumper) traffic in philly - stop and go traffic on hills *cringe*.

Poor clutch

. I never liked the ass end of the Z's for some reason, but it is a nice car besides that. I personally want either a 06, or a 07 Subaru WRX STi. I drove a 06 last year and almost busted a nut in the drivers seat because of how much grip it got around corners.

STi's cant take hairpins for shit. They understeer right off.

Trust me, I race.

While i did notice understeer while driving my uncles STi, it really wasnt that much of a hindrance for me. And i was not driving like an 80 year old woman either. After i got used to the way the car corners, i was hammering old twisty country roads pretty damn hard and had no issues. Before taking it for a drive with my uncle, i too heard that it understeers pretty badly. But for the most part it did not bug me at all.
