Opinions on next car?	Thu, 31 March 2005 08:08

I'm looking into selling the corolla, i've had fun in it but just don't want to start spending anymore money on it because i know it'll just get out of hand and in the end still be a corolla two cars that i'm thinking of are a AE86 or a ST165 celica. i'm not really interested in anything any bigger than these. basically i just want something as a good daily driver to work and also something that i can take out for a good drive (OPH). I'm not currently keen on getting into drift and all that jazz although it does look pretty interesting. Basically i'm after a car that handles that i can learn from. The biggest downside i see to the 165 is insurance, i'm 21 male and have no previous fines. Shannons quoted me $1700-1800 for comprehensive although since i can't keep the car in a lock up garage they won't give it to me and i dread what people like just car will quote me. However the 165 is something i've been a fan of for quite a while and wouldn't mind AWD with some boost. However i'm not sure on what the maintenance will be like on a 3SGTE I'm quite keen on the AE86 for the lightweight rwd factor and the 4AGE which i've become quite a fan of with the corolla. the one thing against this lies in all the people that will ask me whether i drift and do i watch initial d, not to mention spare parts which i've seen as becoming hard to come by. an advantage i see in this is the insurance which will be nicer since i plan on keeping the car is NA. I'm open to what everyone has to say on both cars, it won't be the deciding factor when i go to purchase my next car although i would like to hear what people have to say about both cars since they are at the top of my list. I would look into modifying such components as the suspension as i saw the huge difference the camber kit made on the corolla. [Report message to a moderator]
