i want all go some show.....but a beater that looks like it would disintegrate if it would drive over a crack in the road would be fun too.....as long as it has some *****.

I would like a combo of both...but I have been putting money into the looks and safety of my car first before I try to make it fast.

Wanna know what I think? I'm getting sick of cars and mods and feel like buying a stock car and leaving it that way forever.

yes maybe in a few years i will have the same mentality.....but its a way of life that you just cannot abandon......


you will be kicking yourself in a couple of months when you dont have anything to tweak and work on......

working on my car isn't a hobby of mine so I can easily abandon it.

I want my car to be a race car that is driven occansionally on the street. A little bit of show is important as long as i doesn't hinder the performance.

I am aiming to have the best of everything, have it stand out a tiny bit but almost have a nice engine/turbo setup.

A go-car is a show car.

I don't want power, I just want my car to handle a little better first.
