Ahhh very nice thread, maybe share abit more info or if you dont mind, im going to put down cars i have 100% access to instead (makes me feel more levelled with you guys who actually had own multiple cars :( ) ... we should all include like dream ride, if you werent driving your FTO what would you be in? Any future cars? things like that :D

Anyways here my history of previous car "semi-owned" :lol:

1. 1997 Misubishi Mirage CE - okay bought this car and planned on keeping until i get my red or green P's but then realised it would be waste of money to upgrade later on and the mirage was just too slow and didnt have any luxuries about it. Sold it for $3800 after 3 weeks :lol: ($500 loss :cry: )

2. 1993 Honda Civic GLi - hmm dont really OWN this, but its my brothers work car. Basically mine, just under his name as he owns a Type S already. (Also the car i put my driving skills to the test) :P

3. 1996 Camry CSI - MY MUMS. For the sake of it ... males love to compare and brag anyways :P

4. 1997 Mitsubishi FTO GPvR - After getting my L's with few months driving experience i was obseesed with cars. Very long story on how i got this, lets cut it short and simple and say ... due to *~delightful!~* dealers bullshitting to me that i will have a 96 FTO GR in 1 week from time of deposit (after 2months and it still was not complied, fken some delay bullshit) i got pissed and bought a '97 gpvr (yep lost my 1000$ deposit). Had a crapload of problems and is 4speed for some odd reason (Aza reckons previous owner stuffed up the 5speed, and was repaired with a 4speed). Nevertheless im satisfied with her AND last of all this car's all mine, as i borrowed money to buy it. :D

If i could swap my FTO for something similar in price, it'll be :
supra or mr2 and maybe a vtir teggy (VTEC YO!!!!! YO)

Dream of owning a 500kw FTO :twisted: ...
.. if not deffinately a 22b WRX STI :safe:
