My dad has a late model Mitsubishi Verada wagon with about 200hp.
Soon he is getting a new car. It will be a Ford falcon wagon with 244hp. I don't think that he is planning any mods though.

Parents: Seat Toledo 2003 -105HP-
We had a Toledo 1992 but it was a shiznit. I can upload a pic.... I made it just before send it back to Seat shop (a little souvenir :D)


Im surprised... most of your parents have got 2cars (mum's car, daddy's car). In Spain we use to have 1 car per family. the 2nd car (if available) is for the son........


Grandfather's car: Peugeot 406.

My other grandfather had 7 different Mercedes during his life, he loved the good cars (like me) 8) I only saw the last one, but I cant remember the model I was a child. He would be proud of seing me driving a 350z :cry:

I hope you can pay for the insurance on a 300ZX... cause where ever you live they are really expensive on insurance.

I know the US is expensive, UK is expensive, and where I live the 300ZX is also expesive cause the new price was high and in all cases it will be high cause of tyour age and in some cases the high performance of the car!

but anyway good luck
