Those are good cars. They hold their value much better than non-ZHP 330's. I have a few friends with them up in CT.

That is without a doubt the coolest PT cruiser ever. Its just tastefully modified and something "clicks", like the X factor that makes a car cool. Real flames would have ruined it, too little would have made it boring.

Well done!

Well, I'll post my car in here, an 08 Civic Si sedan, but it's not the most interesting car to review.

However, I would love to see a review on that classic Mustang!

sometime, in the future, you'd be welcome to Norway, to test my Hyundai Pony and Buick Century :p

you could pretty much just come to Norway and check out the Gatebil event...

starting grid for this years Gatebil Extreme race series.
Clicky
Gatebil is translated to Street car, pretty much, so it's mostly street legal cars, and it's a track t test cars on, i'm sure some would allow a car review team to review their cars, they like to show off :p

I have a 1991 Honda CRX Si with a 2000 Civic Type-R B16B swap. The car is a race car without a cage (working on that) or a glorified go-kart. It is my autoX car, but it is still tagged for driving use (to and from events and nice weekends). It's not too pretty to look at just yet, but it is a blast to drive! Here are a few photos and videos.

I'd be interested in seeing a test drive of lowflyn's CRX. Or, if you want, I'll let you take my 2001 Z3 Coupe 3.0i for a test drive. It's not super fast, but it sure is a fun car to drive images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I'd offer up a bone stock mkV R32 if she didn't need an oil change and new tires soon.
That and I haven't had time to properly thrash her around a track yet. Here's an old pic:

We don't have a start date yet, but it shouldn't be as long as TV. This season has only been over for 3 weeks though!
