hey everyone, i'm JD. just signed up so thought i'd give a bit of an introduction.

i'm 20 years old and from the south-east suburbs of melbourne.

i'm looking to buy an FTO towards the end of this year, so just signed up to learn more about the cars etc.

i'm currently driving an MR2. love it to bits but unfortunately having a 2 seater is becoming a real hassle for me, so time for a 4 seater !

the FTOs are pretty damn sexy and i've heard good things about them. looking forward to hearing more :)

WTTC JD. Youll find the rear two seats of ftos are near on useless unless youre a midget!

GO the 2 litres!! (3sgte??)

thanks man

the back seats will mostly be for carrying girls around.
if they can't fit in the back seat then they're clearly too fat !! :lol:

i've got the non-turbo version (3sge) due to P plate restrictions (i'm only 20) but because of how small the car is it's quick enough for me :) about the same as the FTO i'd imagine.

WTTC ...

I have actually got 3 asian girls (all over 18 ) on the back seat, and 1 in the front who was about 5.5foot ... I am over 6 foot, so my seat was pretty far back ....

So yeah, it can be done ...

i've had 3 girls in my MR2. but that was just ridiculous. 2 sitting on eachother in the front. the other one went in the boot.

fairly dangerous and illegal :? but it was only a 5 minute trip.

WTTC club man,

u wont regret getting an FTO ;)

btw fitting girls in the back is fine but as a heads up i doubt u will be able to get lucky back there, ul find yourself just too spacially challenged. I'd say most of us have tried and failed ...

unless your a cirque dusoleil performer 8O

i bet i can manage. i did it in the back of my old commodore with ease. even managed in my MR2 (pull the seat completely forward and recline it fully. or simply remove the targa roof and have her sit on top :lol: ) so i'm sure i'll find a way in the FTO! :D

Lol, how this thread derailed on the comment of girls in back seats haha.

I usually have 2 passangers, sitting behind the passanger seat isn't too bad, but behind driver can be pretty cramped. I've had 5 people in the FTO a couple of times lol.

haha, so there is benefits to being a midgit sweet.

And i still stick with my previous comment. All you gotta do ben is sit in front passenger seat put the top part of the seat all the way back and just lie down. Then she rides you for that whole 2.5 mins and then your done. She can then finish her self off while you have a ciggie :lol: :lol:

hey, they're not that bad :P

here's one of my buddies from the MR2 vic club...

having said that, my car is an absolute lemon. had it for 6 months and already spent $4000 on repairs/maintenance.
not all MR2s are like that obviously, I just got unlucky :lol:

I love the look of the FTOs though. they're probably the only car that looks good with a veilside kit on it.

how reliable are they? if I have to do another $4k of repairs I swear I'll kill myself.
