So what's your next car?
Discussion
Now, I know we all love our current steeds dearly, but which car(s) are you thinking about trying next and why? Which floozy repeatedly catches your eye as your drive past and tempts you to be unfaithful to your beloved?
Here's my list in no particular order:
MR2 turbo - with so many japchatters raving about them, you can't all be wrong!
Integra Type R - just to experience one of the great engines of our time.
Glanza V - a turbo'd featherweight for those hot-hatch thrills.

Ohh, now theres a question
RX7 is high on the list, but so too a Supra...
i've often been tempted to change the FTO for a MR2 Turbo, just because it has more power
having been out in a 'teg, i do love them, as i do a facelift FTO aero....
soo may choices, i've even come close to buying a '86 UR Quattro, but it was sold before i made my mind up

A friend of mine is thinking of selling his '86 UR Quattro if you're intersted??
Anyway, to keep the post relevant, having only just bought the 200sx, hopefully my next car is at least a year away, but if I were to change I'd like to think the shortlist would look something like this:
106 GTi (with throttle bodies & coilovers )
R32 Skyline
Supe
Caterham 7 type thing (locost, westfield, tiger etc)
S1 Elise
Vauxhall Monaro (now thats a car!!!)
E39 BMW 540 Touring

'teg R WILL be revisited at some point...because it's so effing good!
FD3 is tempting, although could be pocket-emptying
VX220/Elise is also on the list for when I'm rich and selfish enough and have a fun car for day-to-day.
Always hankered after driving an Evo...will wait until i've driven before I know whether I want to own.
And the M-Coupe looks the mutt's and sounds it too...can forgive an average chassis with that combination.

Can't see me changing the FD for anything. Too addicted to it and put too much hard-earned into it to feel right about it. It'll change into a neo-racer over the next 2 years anyway as I track it more.
Pipe dreams would be to pop a sequential box in there, strip it out, cage, uprated diff and stick a bridg-ported medium single in there. Awesome noise and ~500bhp with < 1100kg weight. Mmmm. Then enter it in Britcar
Just can't imagine having anything else.
I sometimes think about the ultra-aggresive 'liner looks but it's not a pretty car. None of the fwd cars really float my dingy either.
In lottery land though - I could see me driving an Aston or Lambo (or other 4wd italian supercar). I'd still have the FD though.

hmmmm......
Scooby STi-RA V-ltd would be current pick. (~300hp, C-R 'box, DCCD, lightweight spec etc)
though have also considered the 2-car route, practical wagon and light/RWD fun/impractical 2nd car( 200sx/mr2 etc)
the wagon will probably stay for the next 2 years until I finish uni though.
