My dads' ride is a decent Kia Amanti. Silver paint w/ 18' rims. Is nice. good hp as well, hit 130 in a quarter mile and it still was picking up speed when we slowed down

why the hell do people bash on korean cars? they are pretty decent though i will admit they won't hold their own against other cars

No, I'm bashing 130 in a 1/4ml. My M3 (390-odd BHP) did a mid-12's pass at 137mph, and that's a Â£55000 (new) car WITH mods. A Kia wouldn't do a quarter that fast, no matter what Kia it was.

137mph is an awfully high trap speed for a mid 12 pass.

I know, my start and RT were awful. Was having traction problems at the time. I'll root out the slip if you want

My dad recently put in an order for a Ford Territory Turbo Ghia. Unfortunately the car's being delivered in 2 weeks time and since I'm at uni, it's impossible for me to get a pic of it.

w00t!! Our first car with a turbo! (8

My dad just picked up a black convertible 1965 Chevy Corvair Corsa (turbocharged) with a white top and interior in fairly good condition for $1,000.

xHaZxMaTx · Post by **xHaZxMaTx** » 05 May 2007, 08:50

Air cooled rear 6-cylinder boxer engine. One of the first cars to have a turbocharger as a factory option.

darknight788 · Post by **darknight788** » 05 May 2007, 08:54

that looks interesting. is that a 4 cyl ? 180 hp was hot rod back then

stealthsloth22 · Post by **stealthsloth22** » 05 May 2007, 14:39

Yeah he sold both of them and picked up a Volvo 240 and then sold that for a Pathfinder before selling that for his Hyundai. It was because his dad owned a garage when he was a kid so he had access to everything he needed to work on his cars. Too bad that he got his midlife crisis out of the way early hah. He's nearly 50 and he still hasn't bought a nice car to compensate for his age.

Looks like a v6, but im just saying that becuase of the angle of the plug leads maybe just because of the way the picture is

My dad may be trading in the Protege for an '06 MX-5 Limited Edition. $\:D/$ 6-speed manual, Velocity Red, black leather interior, black cloth top, Bose stereo system...

He has two custom license plates in mind: 1OF3500 (Because there were only 3,500 of the Limited Edition made), or RAREMX5.

My mum drives a 2004 model Subaru Impreza WRX with MRT Performance exhaust, Konig Unknown 19 inch wheels with Toyo Proxes 4 rubber, and my dad drives...um...a 1990's GQ Nissan Patrol, and he sometimes drives my soon-to-be car, the 1988 R31 Skyline.
