I still dont mind street racer cause they'll all realize like i did that we all make mistakes.

Any way about my new project a show car. I going to be able spend about $17,000 on the car and as far as the mods I'm going to start of with about $5,000. Any thoughts on making a killer show car please help out.

a 92 to 95 BMW E34 525i or BMW E36 325i or is coupe. If you get a BMW with an automatic tranny make sure it doesn't have more than 150,000 miles on it. If you need any information on BMWs just send me an email at frestkd@yahoo.com

I like your cousins car. I wish my Civic was better. Your friends car is nice to. These pictures make me feel bad cause it really shows how badly my car sucks.
 
Lewis's car just has a muffler on it........mine has twice the horsepower.but my cousins car is 3 time the performance and power.GOD i wish i remembered the company i bought this kit so i could tell ya.Lets see your civic!!!!!!!!!!
 
Well here it is. I know its not the best but hey. I bought it with the body kit on it so I'm not sure what it is (I think West Wing).
This was takin on a long ass road trip somewhere over spring break. :)
 
Oh ya I bought this at some auction for like $7000. I thought it was a good price.
 
Very sharp SR. I'm an old man (nearing 40) so I tend to be fonder of V-8's. I also like a sleeper. Think Country Squire with a 429 SCJ. But, slowly, I'm coming around to the Rice side of things.
Your Civic is cool. It doesn't look like a body kit with a car tacked on as an afterthought, like so many of the show cars. What are the specs?
 
Well the front air dam was on it when i got the car. But I put on the side skirts, rear dam, the wing, the headlamps, and the meshing.

As far as specs go the engine isn't the best only runing like 150hp. Which isn't that bad for a Civic. I also lighten it up a little bit by takin out the back seat and there is no sound system.

It's got an intake, exhaust system, ignition upgrade, and a few other. I want to turbo it but there are other things I gotta get before i get a turbo.

Well thats about all I really know about my car right now cause I'm tired and don't want to try and rember what every thing is.
 
And thanks for thinking my car is cool. That means alot to me cause most people don't really like me car.
 
I know how important a young man's car is to him. As I recall, You still have a pocketful of cash left over from your budget to do all the stuff you have in mind. Good luck.
Like I said, I'm and old man, and my first car was an all original (except for the carb) 1962 Ford Thunderbird that my dad bought new for my mother as a wedding present. I drove away from my wedding in that car. And My dad still has it.
I presently drive a grocery getter '92 Ford Escort GT.
But there are a boatload of sharp Civics running around here. And, quite frankly, I WANT ONE TOO. Nothing too wild. B-16 motor with intake and exhaust, perhaps a tiny supercharger, chin spoiler, a nice set of 16 or 17 inch 5 spoke wheels, bigger disc brakes, Eibach springs and XM stereo system, As it would be my daily driver. And I like sleepers.
 
Thats pretty cool that the older generations want to get into the new street cars out there. I wish more people would get into that.
"It makes you feel younger" my dad says when he drives my car.

Also I have decided not to use all the money I have on a car but rather put most of it away for future use. I never know when I could use a nice chunk of money.

Any way thank again for the compliments.
 
Your going to race a Volvo. I hope you don't get laughed off the street. But I'm sure if you make it fast then your car starts being respected by others no matter what it happens to be.
 
well, maybe not. but that is going to be my "project car"..ill just race like uuh..minis until im done working on it lol
 
Well good luck on trying to find stuff for a Volvo. I've never seen anything for Volvos before.

See the bit I highlighted in red?

That's the whole bloody point. You'll do it until you die, but what if you take someone else out in your stupid, petty, self-centred way? I don't give a toss if you kill yourself, because you made the choice, but if you hit someone else, like a father on his way home to the kids for Christmas, what choice did you give them? You took them away from the world, and they had no option! Their kids are gonna hate Christmas forever now, because you killed their father on Christmas Eve. You selfish, moronic danger-to-society.
.. the exact thing happened to my dad... even on the same day.
