Don't know about Danny but i'm considering an EVO 8, just think do go much further with my car proformance wise is going to cost big £'s (Gearbox etc), so might aswell spend the money buying a newer car that is 400+bhp capable.

I've no idea what to get next, I just thought whilst out driving today, I fancy a change. Might change my mind tomorrow and decide to keep her!!!!!

Don't get me wrong, I love the car, it's fast as ****, nice to drive and I love the styling.

Very tempted with the dark side But servicing the bloody thing after every trip to the shops is just crazy I'd also love a Skyline GTR but there a bit on the large side.

Tempted with a Bug eye STI, they've come down in price,shouldn't be that hard to get 330-350 BHP I've also spotted a few porsche's at good prices now,

Wouldn't buy an FQ400 couldn't afford one there about £35K, i'd buy an FQ3XX, which with a fuel pump, exhaust, filter and TEk 3 will be up around the 400 mark without the massive amount of lag. I'll probably just keep mine can't be bothered with the hassle of selling my car.

Danny Skyline would be awsome but GTR go for silly money best part of £20k for an R33 (lot for a nine year old car) and about £30k for an R34 around the same age as our cars.

i decided last august to sell my old MY99 Impreza, i'd owned it for 3 years but running costs and getting back into rallying made me decide it had to go, thought i'd be really gutted but i bought a golf gt tdi to run about in, had it mapped and its now a fantastic car running 197bhp and 292lbs/ft torque yet still does over 50mpg!! took me forever to originally decide the Impreza had to go so think carefully guys if your still unsure cos you'll only end up regretting it if you rush into making a decision.
