Lexus Test Driver
Cars I'd like to own realistically some time down the road:
Mazda // RX-7 Spirit R [FD3S]
Honda // NSX
Nissan // 370z Nismo
Nissan // GT-R [R35]
Lexus // LS600hl (That's still pretty up there, but its still achievable)
BMW // M3 [E90]
and of course the LFA is my dream car

I've crossed the NSX and SC400 (minty Platinum/black) off my bucket list
I also have a modest list:
300ZX TT also
KITT (yes, the Knight Rrider one. Maybe a short term rental instead of owning one)
It aint "all that" and it's dirt, dirt cheap right now. The low price reflects the quality too.
The LS430 is much, much better, more refined-Im sure you know that.
Take it off your list and get an 05+ S55 instead.

Kayasith i am not in envy, i want my sc300 on a 5/6 speed.
ohh yeah and i want it working perfectly (almost there)
other than that i want the twin turbo swap some big rims and drift it around a track.

The LS430 is far superior in my opinion. I wanted the S600 so bad but I would feel like a fool pouring thousands into repairs on a car like that. If only the LS430 came with a V10 or V12 it would be perfect.

Factory Five 818
Saw this on yahoo news today. Very interesting. Single donor car for all parts and no painting!!!
Below is quote from Factory Five:
Find yourself a wrecked or exceptionally ugly 2002-2007 Subaru WRX, unpack Factory Five’s body and chassis and then use the WRX guts to build a lightweight little two-seater with turbocharged flat-four power. The finished weight ends up at 1,800 lbs. (818 kilograms, hence the name), which means that even a stock 265-hp Subaru 2.5-liter motor will provide serious speed. The kit costs about $10,000, so the target price for a finished car is $15,000. The price depends on how cheap you can score a decent WRX (and how adept you are at selling off unused parts, like the body shell).
