alternate ride. vr4 or not vr4. that is the question

[happymatch]

hi guys. its been a long tiime posting something here.

Ever since i sold my car, i have severe withdraw symptoms. i thought it would go away but it is getting worse. especially when i need to overtake... or when ever i see some young korean juvinile strathfield with testbook example of ricer.

Looking to buy a another car next year. i need leather and sunroof, need space (three kids) and oh yes.. a turbo or TWO... yum yum..

budget? under 20k's.

any suggestions?

I know.. 2002 Legnum VR4

 

[snickells]

I get to drive allot of different and expensive cars at work, and seriously, our VR4's are amazing cars in comparison. For 15k you could have a stunner of a Legnum, why would you look at anything else?

 

[qball]

What they said. I don't think anything else will compare

Jono, buy my Grandpa. In good condition, leather, twin-turbo, but no sunroof :-(

Only $5000 dude!!

its pretty hard to squeeze 3 kids in the back of Legnum's, you can do it but its really tight. Even so, nothing really competes with it under $20,000, not if you want turbo.

 

[jet150]

Get a Legnum, you know you want to.

What other cars have you got in mind besides the Legnum bro?

 

[unclepaulie]

2jz-gte cressida!!!!!

 

[dimi_108]

Don't get an M35 Stagea man haha.
Trust me, i've been there, done that.
Heavy like shit, weak gearbox, fuel-thirsty and lack of aftermarket support make it a very tiresome and boring investment.

Comfortable and spacious but it makes you feel like you're driving a Honda Odyssey.

Anyone of these around? I've only seen 1JZs & one with 1UZ

 

[-T8-]

Forester gt?? Caldina?? Will smash ricers, comes in leather, optional sunroof..
Does it hav to b a wagon? Legnum is such good value tho..

 

[Jimmy_EC5W]

Liberty Wagon - most are pretty quick and nimble. But otherwise, you cant beat a legnum!

C'mon Dimi! The VR-4s aint that bad!

Jono, if it has to be turbo, then you're probably looking at something like the Liberty GT or Mazda6 MPS.

 

[dimi_108]

Haha Bruce, I was talking about M35 Stageas. Not VR-4's

Did someone say Odyssey?

Anybody importing the S170 Toyota Crown wagons yet? Spacious with 1JZ-GTE goodness!
