svx is not a expensive car pretty cheap if u ask me,, n ot cheap as in cheaply made. the price for what u get is incredible. seeing u are 17 and u never seen the original sticker prices around 30,000 10 years ago thats alot of money .

so paying 5,000-10,000 for a AWD luxury sports car is cheap u get a lot for your money.

now maintence and up keep is a difrent story.



as for a svx being fast.. its a far cry from the big boys.

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

It's right beside the 10 button. BTW, on the computer, which one is the "Any" key?

I have heard of a 1000 HP drag civic, I am sure Honda did not have this in mind when they were creating Civics...

Acura Integra GS-R Sedan (MSRP: $23,080.00)
Engines: 1.8-liter 4 cylinder 16 Valve DOHC
Horsepower: 170hp @ 7600RPM
Torque: 128lb-ft. @ 6200RPM

Well, tell you what, you race a GSR and let us know how it turns out...



One tidbit of information you failed to post was the performance numbers of said integra.

I have beat one before. The higher speeds you reach the more you pull on those. If you race a real sports cars..you may be in trouble. I got smoked buy a built Mustang and a Supra before

Huh, whah?? <slowly gathers himself off the floor while nursing a headache and bruised wallet> I was just standing there reading Phil's post and the next thing I know I'm waking up on the floor. I vaguely remember dreams of driving my SVX while huge amounts of cash fly out the tail pipes...

You all tried to call nine eleven for me? Oh, you care! You really care!!

Overheard this today in PMS (Property Management System){STOP THAT!} Training class yesterday.

Trainer: "ok now just type 'A'."
Trainee: "ok,.... How do you spell that?"


I promise....
