Check this out... its a very nicely decked out 2002 Celica that a bud of mine just got yesterday. Its got less then 25000 km on it. Rear seats have never been sat in. TRD exhaust (sounds sweet) AEM cold air intake and a lot more. Check out the gallery and let me know what you think.

We are going to put on a underdrive aluminum pulley kit this summer and look at putting on the VVTL-I head instead of the VVT-I head. This is the GT not the GT-S which had problems with the 6 speed. Very fast car and has lots of power right through to 7400 RPMS!

Yeah the 280Z was a sweet car, now too see that with a turbo 2.3L would be sweet!

Any foreign car likers out there?
I don't like all cars - only the ones with four wheels...

"Ooh, nice Celica... wow, cool Porsche... lookit that Hudson... sweet Model T... check out the Bugatti... " (sigh... Pathetic :no:)

[mfpmax]

Ugh...I like cars


But not hte 7th gen Celica.

[twister]

I am 6'5", I don't fit in Japenesse cars, so therefore, I don't dig them, I like British and German cars

[MurPHy]

The only "foreign" cars I like alot are De Tomaso Panteras. Italian car +351C Ford V8 = TEH WIN!

I always wanted to put a GM Quad4 in my wife's Opel GT, but she likes it with the 1.9.

I want a Nissan Skyline so bad. I've been in love with them ever since I first read about them.

[Hooptie]

Wanna play "name the obscure import"?

[twister]

Wanna play "name the obscure import"?trust me, I can come up with quite a few that you will not recognize, or in many cases, heard of...I love vintage sports cars

[slickshift]

Fiat X-19 Bertone
With a Targa Top
Mmmmm....Targa Top

But Hooptie is a loser, thus spends most of his time chasing storms and researching everything possible that was made outside of the US.

My daily driver is a 93 Probe SE that is kinda rough but it runs good and was cheap.

before that I was driving a 93 Mercury Capri XR2 turbo. Engine went out and I sold it.

[twister]

Messerschmidt?yup, a KR200

[LTDScott]

My daily driver is a 2002 Mazda Protege5. At least it's 1/3 Ford in theory!

and FYI the Skyline has been around since the 50s ;)

[anthonydalrymple]

Lotus Europa, Pantera, Bricklin, Opal Manta.... I could continue with the odd ball imports that I like but will never own.

[Hooptie]

If its Detomaso, I'll take a Longchamp GTS

Or we could go older and I'll take a Detomaso Valellunga.

Maybe a Bizzarini or a Monteverdi Hai.

And the 70s one is THE BEST LOOKING ONE

[ethangsmith]

I don't care much for foreign cars but if I had to pick one- 1970-1978 Lincoln-Mercury Capris.

[frankiesaysrelax]

I love imports, especially ones with lots of graphics, blinging rims, fart cannons, and giant spoilers. They make me laugh my ass off and look great in my rear-view mirror.

Latest episode of Fifth Gear( www.finalgear.com for download) tests two of TVRs new cars.

[Hooptie]

seen 'em.

I heart TVR.

[Codeman]

I always wanted to put a GM Quad4 in my wife's Opel GT, but she likes it with the 1.9.

I had one of those. "Mini Vette" fun little car.

I like VWs (aircooled) and about anything that ever rolled off the Porsche line. And oddly enough for my size (6'2" 300+) I'd like to have a Mini (original Mini).

I like VWs (aircooled)

Yeah, me too. :D I had a few beetles and a bus back when I was a teenager. I'd love to get a twin to my '67 Bug. It was a 12V and originally painted red.

[jpywell]

Holy crap! I go away for a 1/2 a day lol and boom! This threads outta here! The detamaso is is a nice car, but my favorite is the Lamborghini Countach.

[Merc]

Let's see. I had a 61 Beetle, and a 1982 Skyline (a.k.a. the best looking Skylines... ;) )

I'd have to say aircooled VW's and the Ford RS200's were my favorite imports. Although I'll only be able to own the VW. That's what I'm gonna look for around September after my move.

[twister]

Holy crap! I go away for a 1/2 a day lol and boom! This threads outta here! The detamaso is is a nice car, but my favorite is the Lamborghini Countach.hell, my favorite is a 1964 Cobra Daytona Coupe, English suspension and an Itallian body.....

In this case we'd call the XR a Sierra XR4i.

This is my 2nd Favorite import..

http://www.pontiacs.org/pics/lilgreen1.jpg

This was my friend Wayne's Triumph Spitfire.
Powered by a 300hp 4.3 chev with bowtie heads
T-5 Trans, 240Z 200mm 3.91 rear, 2400lbs with driver..
It was a scary ride!
The Camaro in the background is a 67 RS/SS with a Dual Quad 502

After this one he built a 70 240Z with a 480hp SBC.
It had a TKO 5 speed and ran 11.73 @127 on it's first trip to the track..
Cancer get the best of Wayne and he never did get to race it again.
