1991 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD, sorry no pics my camera broke

Here's my baby, a 1988 BMW 325ix, that's AWD for you non-bimmer speaking
folks Needless to say, i can't wait for the snow to fall...Managed a 0-60 in
7.6sec in the rain, no way i'm trying on dry, transfer cases are rare and over
1000$ It's much faster at high speeds anyways, like all german autobahn-
tuned cars are. I still have to beat my friend and his '99 Audi A4 V6 Quattro.
He's the one who pushed me to buy this, so he has a friend to play with, lol.
Indeed, i was no match in my old 240sx, especially in the snow.

First pic is the actual image from the add in which i found the car. It's my
actual car. The other pic is a BMW publicity image, one of my favorites too !

With your Punto GT 1.4 or your corsa? I and who won? :P

punto and i won lol

Wow.. one of the wisest words I ever heard

Only bummer with german cars is, that they are slower on low speeds:P

But well, my VW Vento (Jetta, for all you amercans out there..), having only a 75 bhp turbo diesel engine, is not what I'd call a sports car... Then again, it only consumes 6 litres per 100 kilometers (when pushed hard), so driving is a little on the cheaper side, fuel wise...

If I ever happen to wash it, I might add a pic or two, to show off the rims, the spoiler and the Remus-Sport exhaustion (I bought the car used because it was cheap... I would never EVER have the means to "improve" my car like that: looking like a cheap ass pseudo sportscar )

Heres mine. Only had it a couple of months so car is much faster than me at the mo. Box standard s1 which needs a sports exhaust to make it sound like a car and not a sewing machine. This is the car of my dreams its great to finally get one.

Lovely, that :up:

Here's mine. 1990 Mustang 5.0 LX hatchback. Modified somewhat. Mostly suspension mods.

Quote from illegal :

I'm too much of an Elise fan to appreciate the car, but congrats with that Speedster

Drive the two back to back, then you'll understand

(it's a VX220 by the way)

I like it . I love all Mustangs. Would like to pick up an 85 GT as a project car. I don't know why 85, I'm just kind of stuck on that year. Some other choices of a car to play with would be an 85 Mazda RX-7 or 85 VW GTi.

Glad to see others posting their "non-cars" in the "Post your car" thread. Here's mine, 64 hp, 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds (specs anyways) and just got 51.6 mile per gallon on last fill up. As a matter of fact, it specs almost perfectly with the MRT in LFS. I tried to put my gear ratio in the MRT, but couldn't get the same performance specs of my ride's specs though.

Mine is far away from being a sports car, but with 105hp for 975kg with full fuel and driver its not that slow either. Has a tiptronic gearbox, some parts like doors, engine cover, ... made of alloy to keep the weight down and an updated aerodynamic shape all from the factory. Drives well in town, nice on countryroads and good at the highway where you can tickle much bigger - so nearly all cars ;-) - because no one would expect such a little car to have a speedmax of over 200 km/h.

awesome location :> And the specs on that car sound nice too. I am sure you weren't bored on those twisty mountain roads :>

Thanks for the comments. I would rather have an '85 than a my '90, but they're difficult to find in decent condition and you have to change a LOT of parts to make them as capable as the '88+ cars. Not to mention that the interiors aren't as nice as the later fox bodies. The best thing about the '85 models though is that they're carbureted. I'd like to get an '85 notch and throw in a carbed 351 with about a 150 shot. I actually saw an '85 parked in a lot the other night. I was going to stop and leave a note to see if the owner would sell it to me, but my wife was NOT very fond of me buying a third Mustang.

though im 25, still dont have a car licence but my wife drives a TWINGO...my belgarda TDR125 is in the garage, in pieces

Wow - nice

Mine 1985 Saab 90
http://www.zoomcar.dk/visusercar.asp?id=1081

100bhp - and a great amount of torque
Lowered 40mm - and i'm searching for some gas-dampers. I bet you, this car is more of a challenge to drive than most in here

I've made 180degrees on the freeway at 100km/h (60mp/h) - and what a great deal of fun!
When you're in a turn, youre doomed if you lift of the throttle. Then the rear will go really really wide.

Next project is a Turbo8valve engine from a 900 - and a change of all the rubberbushes to polyeuthurane. I think(/hope) it will improve handling dramatically!

From Friday (next week), I'll be the proud owner of a 1997 (R reg) 1.4 RT Renault Clio Hmm, cant wait

The current pictures arent actually my specific car (I'll update when I've got some charged batteries), but its basically the same (including the colour) - with the exception of the go-faster-stripe

My ride, a Ford Escort XR3i from September 89.

It's not a fast car or something like that but I always wanted to have an MK4 Escort so I've bought this one. It was not to expensive as I'm still a 21 year old student)


I've bought the car 2,5 year ago when it was completely original.

- 89-90 Spec complete Recaro interior
- Recaro headrest on the back seats
- Leader Ford RS steeringwheel
- Escort Ghia mid console over the handbrake
- Oil pressure, oil temp and volt gauges
- Black and red floorcarpet with XR3i logo's
- And ofcoure some nice audio stuff from JBL


And on the exterior we have:
- 15" Ford RS rims Goodyear Eagle F1 tires for the summer
- 14" Original XR3i wheels for the winter
- XRRS-Club Licence plates
- White front flashlights
- White side flashlights
- Original XR-RS rally style lights
- Smoked/Red backlights
- All plastic stuff sprayed black
- 89-90 XRRS sprayed spoiler
- Chrome Escort & XR3i Decalls on the back

And also some technical tuning:
- Modified air filter house with K&N filter
- Competition exhaust manifold
- Removed the catalytic converter
- Scorpion Stainless Steel exhaust from the manifold with 3'' tailpipe
- Koni yellow top adjustable shock absorbers
- Koni 30mm lowering springs
- EBC Greenstuff brake pads for S2 RS Turbo
- S2 RS Turbo brake calipers
- Brembo 260mm brake discs
- Deflex Polyurethane Bushes
- RS Turbo anti-rollbar









As you can see i sometimes drive on trackdays with the car and have done The Ring aswell

For next season the car should have a new homebuild engine. Maybe i'll post more info about that when it's done
