my next real "toy" and not some kind of dream car will be something similar to this...
in the next few years, i also want to find a nice used 06-10 z06... but that is probably atleast 2-3 years down the road and by then who knows what i will want

Since I believe we're supposed to be talking realistic cars and not dream cars...mine will be my 64.5 coupe with a 2.3T, 5 speed, and 8.8.
I have all the parts....just need to stop getting distracted with my other vehicles. :)

Ryan. I think Bo said he wanted to sell the car with the wheels. But I could be wrong. I'm trying to talk him out of selling. Haha
all i want is my first Jeep back MY 82 CJ-7...not another, just mine
..........its somewhere in virginia now
03 Torch Red Anni. Ed. Cobra
11 Grabber Blue 5.0, 3D500 spoiler, CS valance, GT premium, interior upgrade package, Brembos, MT-82 and Whipple powered SOLD
01 cobra: traded
93 LX Modular 4v swap
Sean Hyland Motorsport forged rotating assembly, Teksid block, 01 cobra heads, cams and intake SOLD
hahaha get outta here
And 100% honest, I'm not sure what I'm doing yet. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the car would sell faster with the wheels, but you never know? I'm just talking outta my butt at this point, and I've learned from my past blunders/****ups, so I'd wait til all the paperwork is signed to try to sell them separately instead of having to make the decision between getting burnt really bad on a sale price and being a douchemonger and backing out (again).
I dunno Bri, I'm thinking more and more seriously at the idea of selling it and just having one car again. I gotta get another car soon anyway, and as shitty as it would be to get rid of such a bad ass terminator.... its probably going to be the best financial decision for me and to keep a car I can enjoy on a daily basis and not be as overprotective about.
Plus, I went out with my friends last night that own the import business... I'd get everything at their true cost... bolt on turbos, injectors, exhaust, etc...

could be fun! (I'm still in awe that you can actually floor it in the shitty weather like that with a fast car BTW)
I had a 05 STI and traded it for the Cobra. I had tranny issues when the car has 5k on it and it was a DD and never raced. Oh and the brake rotors were $350 each. lol

lol oh believe me I remember. If I were to go down this path, I'd keep it stock for the most part for a few years. Although... I have been reading some good things about 30R turbos on those cars... Wouldn't mind a daily driver that was 85% as fast as the cobra
unless it blows up or something shitty![]()
My car was stock. the stupid thing had to much power stock so i didnt bother with mods. Junk junk junk. Look at an EVO if you want to mod.

I would never own an evo I don't think. Just don't like em much from personal experience (really a friend's experience of owning one since 03) Transfer case went bad at 12,000 miles. Car now has a Shepherd racing transmission in it.
I don't care much for how inline 4 cyl cars sound, but the scoobies with the unequal length headers and their flat four have a pretty cool sound to them.
why the hell am I thinking about selling (IMO) one of the nicest terminators around for a ****ing daily driver?!?!
damn it :(
my .02 is if you really like your termy and you can afford to keep it, thats what you need to do. i think too often we make quick decisions that isn't the best thing down the road or we do something that we regret. i know personally i got rid of my notch a few years ago for $3500 so i could get a harley. at the time, a harley was all i wanted and now when i think about it, i practically gave my notch away and i could have afforded to keep both if i would sacrificed in other areas.
Bo,
Where the heck were you when I wanted to trade my STI for a Cobra? lol
