"...or do you think I should wait for the 2016 model year that comes with a factory turbo?"

Hi guys new here.

My first mod is going to be the rocket bunny kit.

Heard this a few times........

I don't see how you can say this car is slow for street driving, with any more power you won't be able to use it without ending up in jail for a reckless.

Sure you could get a mustang with 300+ hp, but get on it for more than 5 seconds and your in jail for doing 120 mph on the highway. You can't have any fun, so what's the point?

Sure you can get a mustang, if you like driving a boat.

Traded my 86 for a mustang, the power is amazing, so much better!

I got the track package, now I have the best of both worlds.

I traded my 86 for a mustang and now I regret it, do you think they'll trade back?

I got stuck in the driveway. (A coworker and I both said this on Weds, haha.)

Let's not forget the 124 pages of this http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8629. Most of that qualifies as sh*t in my book.
(present company excluded etc)

Well, there is always going to be something that some people don't like!
My only real issue are the people that complain bitterly about things that:
A) They should have known about before they bought the car (it is too small, I have a hard time getting in and out, etc)
B) Things that they can't do anything about and complaining won't change (it should have been cheaper, crickets, etc)
C) Things they can do something about but would rather just complain (not fast enough, don't like stereo sound, noisy inside, etc)

No such thing as a perfect car! Don't be tough on those people T, their tears of frustration feed us <insert maniacal cackle here>..

"Guys I totaled my car today"

"Sorry for your loss, you parting out the driver headlight?"
