A buddy of mine recently bought a 97, ABS/LSD white pearl SE, no sunroof with 66k on it.. great condition.. only problem is that it's an automatic but the DET swap is sitting in the garage from his S13 that someone destroyed (someone crossed the street right in front of him)...

They're great cars. I regret not buying another 240sx after my car being totaled; but watever, I'll wait for the brz to come out.

1992 Civic Si hatch. People may make fun of VTEC, but running that thing up to 7200 rpm was music to my ears back then.


(Still have a soft spot for Honda.)

I think it's easier than trying to tell the difference between a FRS & BRZ.
But after being in the 240 game for so long, maybe it's just me

As I drove around in my 1980 Toyota Corona, I kept the Acura Integra GSR brochure in my car that I got from Cush Acura!

I was involved in a head-on collision with a drunk driver when I was 15. I was riding in my friends Mazda B2200 mini truck so my pain and suffering settlement was 25K but I couldn't collect it until I was 18. Once I turned 18, I found a very clean Granada Black Pearl GSR fresh off a lease with only 30k miles.

The GSR was one sweet car!


Here is the same picture that I was able to google which was from the brochure! I remember staring at it for hours day dreaming about this thing!
