Tbh mine being virtually stock and all the supra would slay it so would the gto (both were around 400bhp)

both corsas would leave mosts things for dead after 50kph (ie when it gets traction!) the 2.0 turbo one did 1/4 mile in 11.2@ 115mph :) it was spinning its wheels most of the way I put boost upto 1.5 that day as opposed to its normal 1.1 bar!!

sti type r was quicker too :)

most scoobys I think the xr6t would beat....

in general I think most of the uk "hot hatches" were quicker on bends but I reckon the xr6t would have em on the straights fairly easily.....

Question all would want to know... why so many cars? Why change them so often? It honestly doesn't make sense.

Surely you would've lost money - Constant rego transfers - Constant dealing with insurance companies. Would be more hassle than it's worth.

Good question and a easy reply lol

In the uk we dont have to pay rego you just change keeper on logbook then its just another owner ie a 4 owner car or 5 etc cost naff all its great with no buying or selling fees either

As for isnurance you just get fully comp that covers you on any car not registered to you so all my cars went in the wifes name my insurance covered me regardless of the owner having insurance :)

so to sum it all up 1 insurance policy buy the car at the right price say 2k keep for one month or two then sell for say 2.5k alls good and free motoring essentailly all you gotta worry about is the mot (to amke sure car is road worthy yearly) and road tax no other fees.

Over here there is way too many obstacles with this (I was gonna import a m3 cab as I could of had one for 7k 2004 model (about $15k) whats that car worth here??!!

but I found out after a few calls you get the luxury car tax you have to own it for 12months in the uk and be with it then its gotta be converted and its just not worth it :(

cars over here are really really dear compared to the uk.
