With that said, I still love AE86. Just Cost/Fun, I prefer the twin or other cars more.
There is far more want then practical need for me. I know I could probably get another beater twin that would far outperform it to drive for as much as I will likely have in this car if I end up with it. But I am in the position in my life that I can afford such things so why not.
