A car you will do up later in life - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #19149 56 posts Started by SlowCelica94
So what's a car you honestly think you'll do up later in life? And don't say GTR (something you'll never get) or turning ur celica into a GT4 (also something youll never do). Please say why. For example...

When I get outta college I wanna pick up a RD RX7 and swap in an LS1 or LS2. It would have great sex appeal, a classy interior, and the power to take most things on the street. Add some coilovers and you're set

Oh and a Celica...nothin wrong with that!"
I'd love an FD. Love their style.

Though, really want to find a pristine Datsun some day.

I'm looking at a 84 supra and building a killer 7MGTE setup, right now
I was actually thinking about this the other day. Someday I'd like to have a 93ish RX-7... damn they look so good.

as for me, check my sig, my 260z is a really long term project, although i am going for a budget racer sort of car

then there is the mustang, that thing is gonna be great in every aspect

eventually i want to import a GT4, legally, or grey area, i dont care, i will get one. even if i only drive it once a month, i will be happy.

All I need is......your car.
its a tough choice... optimally a race prepped 05 Lotus elise >smile.gif> but the rarity makes it more of a lofty goal than the price does.

as far as all this custom work and insane modification... i donno if ill every try getting into that with a car anymore... id like to do it to customer cars *wink wink* but for me its either race prepped or stock with a nice all around stereo setup... i cant really justify the expense of something crazily modified just to drive it around and have people go oooooo and ahhhhhh and i find car shows boring so oh well... JMO.

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them allNo but I don't buy itLike anything you do, as anyone you areCause I'm...Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial
i hoping for a IS300 or maybe a Jetta VR6.

I would have to agree with nat on this. Depending how long in the future.... I think the next thing im going to do is buy my aunts bmw 95 325i vert, then pull the engine and mod with m3 internals and turbo it, then do some suspension an lip kit. Later in life Il also wanna get a 69 camaro an vette.

Hmm... well, after I graduate I am going to either get an AE86 project, or (the more likely) used infinity G35 6spd coupe. A black one. >smile.gif> Then it's greddy TT time. I hope to put down just a bit over 400hp with the engine otherwise virtually stock. That would be well enough to handle 99% of the people on the road, right? >smile.gif>

I'm kinda partial to the 1st Gen Celica Coupes... but I'm not looking anywhere beyond my AE86 right now. That should appease my appetite for the time being. Long term... dunno. No plans.
