    Default So what car will be the hot Thing in 06? Especially locally

    So what you guys think ? Mostly around the GA area.

    The last 2 years seems like the EVO's and STI's have been all over everything.. along with the 240's

    Hondas are still ticking, still alot of interest with the K series Motors popping around and the aftermarket support is insane.

    EURO's are Also picking up locally more then Ever ( mostly VW's& AUDI'S) .. I know they been around the block In the ATL area awhile now, But mostly dyno/show queens.
    For the past year it seems we see have start seing them more and more...


    Old School Rides are also showing some interest in some folks..
    Corolla's, Datsuns, Mini's..

    SO WHATS THE NEXT BIG THING?

    I would love to old school come around. I think Euro's will take it this year and by next. I'll be helping with the old school with my 80 Corolla. Looking forward to that. Later, QD.

    boosted/luxury/domestic/euro - are probably 4 hot ones i see for the coming year...

    boosted - anything w/ boost is popular, i think we will keep seeing more but i think the AWD crazy may be slowing down

    luxury - nicer, more expensive, rides... the days of the civic are long gone; in come the S2k, RSX, TSX, etc...

    domestic - i wouldn't be suprised to see some new hot rides from Pontiac, etc.. G6, GTO, and Solstice (fucking hotness).

    euro - dubs have always been a strong group, but you are begining to notice more people switching over from the jap side, and just wait for the release of the new GTI 2.0t is going to rule.

    350Z's and G35's are becoming more common now, especially modified ones.. but I'm biased in my opinion

    I think the solstice gxp turbo/saturn sky turbo will be hot, the new 2.0t gti, and the new civic si.

    Saturn will not have a turbo version at the start. They "May" come out with a redline edition but they havent said yet. If they do would be atleast a year after the release date.

    the motherfukkin Starion and the Conquest will be it! haha... I wish

    but I do think that some old school 70s and 80s will pick up - especially with rising prices of classic american muscle, its only time

    plus the '06 STis and Evo's are fugly

    The popularity of 240s is only going to grow even more as drifting becomes more and more popular.

    I don't think so, the new SI will bring the civic back to the arena. For $20K it will offer a lot to young buyers. Sure there are faster cars out there for $20K, but its a nice package. 200HP, 6spd, LSD, reliability, and a higher resale value to name a few.
