The Scirocco was aweome to me, before the Corrado was introduced. I then fell in love with the Corrado; pretty good handling, and the exhaust note was good. With a small modification of the airflow, the sound could get even better! But gotta respect the Scirocco for being a leader of the more economical sports car of its time.

I've spotted this GORGEOUS GT3 RS once on the road, (makes such a lovely sound!) and now found it at my local car dealer. It wasnt locked so I got to try how it felt behind the steering wheel. It was very nice indeed.
Didnt ask it for a test drive though. Well you know what the response would have been when a 20-year-old SEAT driver asks a GT3 RS for a quick blast. images/smilies/lol.gif

I think that is the only one of its kind here in Finland.

^ Agreed, I'll have a white or green one but not the black/red... the red rims are hideousness.

Don't you mean black/orange? Anyway, I'd have one of those in any colour.

Yeah, black/orange doesn't look that bad, but the green/black is by far my favorite. images/smilies/love.gif

It looks red on my screen. images/smilies/wacko.gif

Orange sucks too, I've seen one. Is red even available? There was a green with gunmetal rims in a sightings thread, that was my favourite.

It's just the image quality. I think the colour combos are opposites, eg green with black rims, black with green rims, orange with black rims, black with orange rims etc

Technically they can't say no. You could sue them for emotional damages. Although you may lose because Porsche would call up your finance details, revealing you can't actually afford one...images/smilies/wacko.gif

That BMW is absolutely beautiful!! It must worth a lot now, since it's rare to find one, and it's in such good condition.

He referred to the GT3RS images/smilies/tongue.gif

Anyway, I was in a hurry when I found this. It looked like a Quattro so I took those pictures, and just when I downloaded them from my phone I realized it was an Audi 80 Coupe...images/smilies/lol.gif
