wow quite a list you have here yes ive heard of most of these... are they good? well the 6 speed gear box and turbo helps the going(depending on the brand garrett?) and the drilled brembo rotors help with the stopping. It all depends on what you want the car for and the price you are willing to pay. only advice i can give is take someone who knows there shit about cars with you and get them to go over it for you( beers help as payment for the friend hah) if you dont know anyone that good in australia we have compaines you can ring up and they send a guy over to have a look at it for you and writes up a big list for ya but at the end of the day its all about the coin in your pocket... and how much of it you wanna give anyway hha

so i looked at this car and i found a few very depressing things out.  aside from the 7 hours in traffic i had to deal with going there and coming back this car had 3 major issues;
1.  the air filter was ripped out
2. the catalytic converter was removed
3. the battery was moved to the trunk, and the battery line was running through the interior of the car, just laying loose on the floor.

this all equals an illegal car to sell in 49 states in the US, sadly my state included.

well guy wanted 17 for the car, said he wouldn't go any lower then 15.... wasn't going to spend 15 on the car, then replace all the stuff in it.  also a lot of body damage, dents/dings, looks like he took a chainsaw to the interior to run the gauges.

def. I actually found another one i'm going to look at this weekend.  good miles, decent price.  replaced a lot of the exterior metal with chrome to prevent rust and look nicer.  new exaust system, ceramic headers, etc.  should be a fun car if I get it.  clocked at 0-60 in 4.9 seconds.
