A month and 2000 country km in

In a word "Tiring to drive"
Might be quick, might go round corners well but on country Victoria scourier roads driving one for a couple hours is fatiguing.
The road noise is horrendous.
And every surface plays a different tune.
Everyone wants to see what the car is and the tonka toys and bmw suvs want to over take you or tailgate you.

Brakes are awesome and if you are tailgated you risk getting shunted up the backside.
Could explain why so many are on gumtree parts for sale in wreckers, ten last count.

Still dont understand why 580 are for sale out of 20,000 delivered in OZ.
Disproportionate over representation percentage.
Must be some pretty dissatisfied folks out there.

Watched the top gear video boring...

Watched the 86 gt races on tv and saw one do the old gp trick and run up over the rear wheel of another 86 and flip over onto its roof spiining like an old vw top lol.

I pulled off the crap wheels and fitted my eight inch enkeis off my GT4 and potenza V rated tyres and now it is no longer a drifter.

All in all a keeper six years old 5000 km and it goes in the shed to preserve for the future and try to drive on foam bitumen only.

To the fast and furious would be racers out there dont stuff the resale prices like the celica gt4 and suzuki gtis please!
