isaac wrote on Sun, 12 October 2003 20:17 | Hmm, my dream car would be a bright yellow JZA80 aero top twin turbo, with all the late model stuff installed (taillights, headlights etc) coz late model ones don't have aero top. A little, not too far out body kit and big wheels and really low. Coming back to reality, a jza70 will do .
I am a little concerned with older turbo cars though, about the fact that the turbo in there has been starting and stopping heaps for the last 15 years or so, and just like so much wear. Plus celica's are usually driven by girls, but supra's are heaps likely to be thrashed by now. I guess i just have to get over it and buy one.

It's always a concern for an older car that it's trashed, but you should be able to find one from someone who knows how to take care of a turbo properly. Always warms it up AND warms it down, changes oil regularly, etc. But a good rule of thumb is to have a bit of extra money "just in case" when you buy a car.

of course, I'd want my aero top TT 6-speed, which makes it an expensive endeavour - so I'll stick to the hard top till Im a millionaire

Is the aero top jza80 that rare or something? I personally want a hardtop due to it being stiffer in the body.

WRX'es dont worry me in the bends anymore - Evo's still are a concern ..

Probably more than a little.....
But what about the newest WRX? My mates MY03 STI sticks REALLY well to the road. I get him to go fast through roundabouts and shit just to feel the grip of the thing. It's pretty amazing. Where most cars would be sideways, his is still straight with no noise from the wheels or "floating" whatsoever. But yea, it did come at a pretty big cost that car...
