I thought some of you might be interested in my new car.

As a direct result of this thread

https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=221587

And G's suggestion I got this.

Take that rediculous spoiler off and it would look a lot better in my opinion. Just out of interest how much as these to buy??

Wow. Hard to not feel a pang of jealousy when you see someone buy a car like that.

Very nice mate I hope you enjoy it.

Post up some specs.

It does, but it's a lot nicer than my bike and quicker too. Laughing

It's standard and pretty crucial to the down force! In fact, some people raise them for track use!

Thanks.

Specs I believe are

Length: 4089 mm
Weight: 1080 kg
Engine Capacity: 2968 cc
Cylinders: V6
Max. Power: 356.9 PS / 352 bhp / 262.5 kW @ 6200 rpm
Max. Torque: 475.0 Nm / 350 ft.lb / 48.4 kgm @ 3500-5000 rpm
Acceleration: 0-60 mph in 3.90 seconds
Top Speed: 175 mph

Some places say it has 415 bhp and does 185 but I think that is perhaps the American variant.





I did fancy a 911 but the insurance was a hell of a lot more and couldn't really be justified. I'm not sure how long I'll keep it, it's not going to be any good in the Winter and it's going to be a lot of money stood doing nothing!

Downforce is a myth lol. It would look awesome without it though. Nice car though mate.

Its definitely the 350hp one Thumbs Up

Are you planning to spend more cash on it mate? Went to view one of these before I bought Supra, the exhaust was insane, basically a one off cat back system (replaced standard cat with race version) from blue flame.

Obnoxious wasnt the word Laughing

Love it Mr. Green

Red button is the horn Laughing

Dont remove the spoiler... just dont. its there for a VERY good reason... I see a few Supras with no spoilers, mainly drag ones or non turbos. Neutral

I have ONE thought about that car....... SPEED BUMPS! Shocked
Only way to get that thing onto my drive in one piece would be with a crane!
How much do new splitters cost, and is the boot big enough to carry one back from the dealers in?

New splitter isn't too much thankfully! And no boot, so that's not too much of an issue.

Red buttons are the horn as Paddy says.

Going to keep it standard I think, it's fairly fun even so. Laughing

Crikey, for someone that isn't bothered, you do an awful lot of stalking. Laughing

You sad, sad man.

Wiring? There's bugger all of it, and it's perfect.
Gearboxes on them are notoriously weak, it's been rebuilt with an LSD.
Passenger door needed some grease on the cable and it's back to being perfect.

Go and see what a non cat d would cost, it's a bargain.

Jealousy doesn't suit you, funny how you reply to the post though.

At 18k, its a steal regardless Thumbs Up Was looking at one, 32k 2004 with full history and LSD for £23k, custom paint job and full stainless exhaust.

I do like it, guy I was gonna buy Noble from was getting around 25mpg on a nice drive, fair chunk less when boosting like a bitch Laughing

I'll have to come see this thing in action.. its also quite low... can go lower though Laughing Laughing

They need a remap with the exhaust, it really starts adding up!

https://pistonheads.com/sales/list.asp?s=108&p=&d=0&min=&max=&y1=&y2=&txt=&px=&xsl=list&pagesize=15&filter=TP&o=p&pc=

They're the ones for sale on Pistonheads. Reckon I did well.

Feel free! I don't think I want the bloody thing any lower! Laughing
