    Default After the EF, what car are you aiming for?

    Since you know I'm never going to sell my rex, I'm just going to start a collection of vehicles. I plan on buying my next car after graduation. Then I should be able to afford a car in the $30k easy with both a mechanical engineer and mathematic BS with out hurting. So I'm going to get a cheap 1st or 2nd Porsche Boxster (which goes for around $10k-$15k) and convert it into a Ruf RK Spyder. Basically, I'm going to have a kited-out Boxster with a 996 engine Basically I throwing a 300hp 3.4L inline 6 that carries a 911, 177mph and 0-60mph in 4.8s in a car that's lighter. Talk about sleeper

    I"m a big fan of Honda...

    but they're making these cars harder and harder to modify. Which is reallly turning me off to the newer stuff.

    I have a feeling that the 92-95 Civic and DC integra is going to be the flagship for tuners for a long long long time. Until someone comes out with something new, and easy to work on.
