Should I trade my EJ8?

Well I'd like to have it as stock and unmolested as possible while keeping the cost low. If I could find one for 3-4k that would be perfect.






It's really hard to find a nice gt-s around here that's not fully built, stripped, a shell, or really s***ty. If I could find a really clean one for 4k I'd be happy.
Finding both of these BONE Stock is a needle in the galaxy. no impossible but definitely hard to find, especially at the right price.

I know. That's the problems people who like older cars over newer cars have.

I know :/ I cant even get a decent 66 67 mustang , found one once and when I went to go see it, it appeared bone stock but when I slightly lifted the carpet in the trunk/boot I saw tons half-closed weld in holes from a role cage...I was disappointed and didn't buy it...

Sometimes I don't understand why people do that to classics or rarer cars. I can see why on a Honda or any other production car, but not to a rarer car. I was coming back from the gym today and I saw a BMW 2002 on the way back home. It was so beautiful and clean.

No you didn't mention it.





Y no love for rx7's and supras?
Some of them are too expensive around here. I'd love to get an FC, but I'm intimidated by the rotary engine since I don't know too much about it, and the supras I'd be able to afford are the 88-92 models. Those are nice and everything, but seems like too much for me right now.

I have a lot of love for them but they have outrageous prices. I owned a mkiv before and sold it. FD 1 is my favorite rex, Mkiv supra trd is my favorite of the supras (they are more for touring than sliding. like the 300zx. but they can certainly slide after proper mods ;))

Rotary engines are actually very easy after you comprehend it. Bulletproof if maintained well and give you a 3/4 combustion as oppossed to the 1/4 combustion of cylinders. perfect for turbos. less going on too ;) I like the fc too. I like the older supras but not a big fan of the weight, weight distribution, and other things. Buddy of mine had one but I wouldn't get one.

Rotaries guzzle gass though...

I can see that. Right? The older supras are way too big and way too much in my opinion, but do look good and I wouldn't mind having one.

yeah. And they look nice on the outside but that isn't enough for me to own a car as I don't care much for that. Not to mention the 7mg's infamous gasket problem lol I believe they fixed that after a year of production but...:P

Either way right now that car would be too big for me.
