My dealer had one arrive today, not their demo though. It was a red GT manual that I had a good look over, I love the shape the the 16s aren't too bad, they'd look good with some 25mm spacers so they're not so tucked. The interior was fine for a 30k car, it's simple and boring, about on par with my Mum's new Corolla at the same money. Still shitloads better than my new Hilux with vinyl bench seat, wind up windows and no central locking. I'm not fussy though, currently between nopics and my business we've got an s14 200sx, Mirage, Transporter, few Hiluxes, Civic and a 6yo Triton so I wouldn't even know what I'm missing out on, the 86 GT is much more luxurious than anything else I have.

I watched a red one on brisbane northside today with dealer plates fang it down a road, and unmarked police car turn out from 2 cars behind me and follow it down towards brendale from carseldine. Guy was giving it a good fanging though. Nice to know your new cars with 6 minutes of run time on the engines are being f*cking molested by dealers.Originally posted by BosshoggettIf your planing to drive this on the road and enjoy it, id suggest a second opinion, someone with a history in Australian Rally or Fink River . If your just playing dyno comps. Then ok

just sat in one and it was very comfortable, box felt good and tight.
i could not drive it as it had been sold before i got there. had come off the truck, i was called and it had sold in the 2hrs it took me to get there....
was a gay orange one so i was not worried, that said the orange actually looks ok in person...
felt very much like my old 96 supraMember #2 of PF v12 club incTM

What makes you think it hasnt already been flogged before it gets to the dealer.....Originally posted by Cracka View PostI watched a red one on brisbane northside today with dealer plates fang it down a road, and unmarked police car turn out from 2 cars behind me and follow it down towards brendale from carseldine.

^^ that dude picked the car up from the dealership and trailered it to the track 2 days later, not fucking around! There is also another guy in the US who's WRX was broken so he bolted on his 10inch wide Hoosier slicks to his brand new bone stock FR-S and entered in his local time attack. admirable.

holy shit - Karl Malone has a toyota dealership and picked his first FR-S customer up in a limo and signed the inside of the boot lid - what a crazy experience that would have been
