The Carisma has a 4G9 engine. Adu's has a 1.6 SOHC 4G92 variant. And the seat covers are standard. They're all that trippy. At least in the previous version they were a bit toned down. I actually got used to mine.

Looked that one up in the dictionary - not a word I currently use. images/smilies/blush.gif

I wish, no the vehicle I had was much slower than a 3000GT/Stealth. I had a Ram 50, it was just a Mighty Max with Ram badges. The ignition key still said Mitsubishi. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

True, but crashing a car that isn't yours yet into a tree isn't.... images/smilies/tongue.gif

IceBone · April 2nd, 2007, 09:15 AM

And? Can't have been raining ever since! images/smilies/tongue.gif

Adunaphel · April 2nd, 2007, 09:22 AM

true

It's almost as good as the 306 was, which is pretty okay for a FWD car. No catastrophic understeering into trees and stuff, but not exceptionally good, mostly due to the soft suspension setup, although the dampers are a lot stiffer than the 306's, especially ridges in the highway are quite noticeable...

The interior sure is something... congrats Adunaphel. What did you have before?

IceBone · April 2nd, 2007, 09:40 AM

I'm getting strut bars made, which should fix that softness.
