    favourite car?

    1984 Ferrari 288 GTO, only ~280 were built, was the fastest production car (albeit briefly) when it made its appearance. one of the most beautiful cars ever made imo... no picture does it justice.

    most desirable car?

    1986-1987, Ferrari 288 GTO Evoluzione, built on the chassis of the above and used as a test-bed for the F40... only 5 were built with 650bhp developed from twin turbos attached to the 288s V8, 0-60 in 4 seconds dead.

    No no problem.. jeez relax.. just having a laugh.. maybe at your expense alright.. but its funny how proud you are of that car.. you have paternal insticts towards it almost..

    I'm only new here, been posting on a regular basis for the last 4 -5 months... but i knew about that car within a week or so of you getting it and the little reminders just keep popping up...

    no offence meant mate... :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    sorry, i apologise.

    yes, it is almost parental. im damn proud of my car because i earned it. i always wanted a convertable and now i have one.

    and no, its not expensive, it doesnt have this that and the other.
    it cost me 5 grand sterling, its 12 years and its only a 1.6i, but damn it, the roof comes down, its got a cd player (expertly blugeoned in by my good self) and its a rear wheel drive so i can do lots of power slides in the wet.

    but yes, i do love my car


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 9,763 Mod ✭✭✭✭ToxicPaddy


    well damn it then ya deserve it... after waiting so long for it...

    I wish i had a car I could be proud of.. alas I shall have to wait for the dream car... well for another few years anyway.. till I do away with my boss and take his job.. and salary of course, then I may get it... :D:D:D

    chernobyl that looks like a skyline r34 right? saw a r33 that pumped out 650 hp leavin most super super cars in their tracks
    see if i can get a pic up


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,682 ✭✭✭chernobyl


    Its a 400R.
    I have no idea of the specs, but out of the box, it revs up to 10,000 RPM and can waste any super car, with some boy racer tuning and japanese super chips the power would be over 1000BHP but you probably loose all the handling...

    Its a 400R.
    I have no idea of the specs, but out of the box, it revs up to 10,000 RPM and can waste any super car

    the 400R is a skyline gtr with 400bhp hence the name.. it was a limited edition made by Nismo (similar to Subarus racing arm Prodrive), im pretty sure its 4wd and a twin-turbo (as opposed to the gtrs single) but dont hold me to that :)

    Not a great fan of the R34 myself, too ooh look at me, older skylines are a lot more understated and look much nicer imo.

    btw im pretty sure a caterham r500 superlite could beat it 0-60... mmm 500bhp/tonne.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,601 ✭✭✭Kali


    just to add..that astra concept is just a way of getting attention to the astra coupe 888. btw there was a limited edition of 100 replicas of the (btcc winning) astra coupe touring car made by a german company last year, to full btcc specs as well, 4wd, ~300bhp ... think they cost about £80k sterling each... ill try and dig up a picture, pretty sure its in a copy of autosport somewhere.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 227 ✭✭Odian


    if i cudnt go for the skyline id go for EVO V11

    this is slick!

    Well, have a look at this!

    Check the full spec... I'd say only stock item left in the car are the rubber seals on the boot and doors!
