whats peoples opinion on them,,incase anyody slags of barge like handling i should advise doing a bit of checking up on them

Dont see many of them about do you.
I think I heard that they have the stiffest shell of any production car or something? |

Mazda RX-7? Nissan 300zx? Toyota Supra? Old Celica? There are a lot of fast cars out there for not-much-money. My mate who now has got an FTO (same GPX mivec one as yours) used to have a 2.2 VTEC Honda prelude (J reg, not the newest shape) and that was quicker than the FTO. New Prelude? Bit weird lookin tho. Hmmmm........so many choices! Depends how much you wanna spend innit |

rx7s are to small cant fit my shoulders in the seats (and i aint that big anymore  ),,,nissan 300s are looking a bit past it,,old celicas have never really done it for me except in widearch mode,,supras are to common round here,,my fto leaves the 2.2 and 2.3 preludes at 40 to 112 so tell your mate to get a hks filter and mongoose system with decat and a good service and that should help a lot,,,and the new prelude is just yuk lol
im thinking about 4-5 before mods
neal correct mate but something got that award in the early 2000s but cant remember what theres also an active model with self leveling suspension thats supposidly handles like a dream but if that goes wrong its £2000 a corner to fix so fuck that
rrh-lol

More or less the same as a Lexus aren't they? Can't be too bad then, look different as well. Didn't know what it was until I read what was beneath the pic! |
