He just said its 36k mileage though on msn - and decked with loads of cool stuff for controlling boost etc... so I'd guess it's a bit more ... but that is so nice
Nismo - would insuring a 300zx be cheaper or more expensive than insuring your rx7

Yes thats all well and good it having a good VTEC kick but what fcuking good is it when you can't get the power down until your rolling?
Traffic light Gran Prix I bet CTR's get torn to pieces, ok once they start moving they will tear the arse off most things (maybe) but thats only if your a skilled driver and you will always be coming from behind.
I cannot understand why the old CTR had a LSD but the new one with more power has not got one
And you can't get away from the fact that A) They look like a bread van
B) Have a Saxo reputation where everyone hates them.
I would never buy one as I think they look wank and I don't like the fact they have to be in a perfect situation all the time to be able to drive it fast.

Don't have to be in perfect situation all the time, you just need to be a good driver, plus... they rev soo freely and easily your in vtec in absolutely no time at all.
Old CTR had LSD as it was jap import only, new CTR has LSD but as jap import only. Perfectly easy to understand really, jap's want it, but they don't want it for uk ctr's.

its not a practical car really cos all the power is above 7k rpm, how often does the average person even want to go to this on a motorway drive for example.
if i had money to spend i would be looking elsewhere
