hahaha, dont listen to them... I seem to do this every other car, think I need at least 2 cars to keep me happy.  I Want that Merc though!

Back on track:

Alfa GTV 3.0V6, lovely engine note, might stretch to a spider
Fiat Coupe Turbo, bloody quick with a flea map

So what's the OP thinking? :popcornsoda:

I'm sure there's a few Integra Type R's available for 3K. Main diff between those and a CTR is the ITR has an LSD from factory and will help out LOADS for some track work.

Porsches can be a exception to the rule, I did look at them, albeit for a decent "cheap" Porsche you need a budget of atleast 7k IMO.

Always wanted one one of these 80's bad-boys. The Alfa Romeo 75 3.0 V6. Whilst Audi were making jelly mould 100's with a 0.30cd, Alfa was giving aerodynamics the big middle finger!

Either a Clio 172/182 cup or I'd love a Williams that needed a bit of TLC.
