Teal EG Hatch. So fast the odometer/speedo cluster broke going into VTEC (True story, btw).
That's really the only car I have worth mentioning.
I will admit, my other man toy is a hottie, but no noods for you.

Right now I have a '13 Civic Si sedan for a daily, a '92 Civic Si for Rallycross, a '98 BMW M3 track car for HPDE's, and the '98 Contour 24 Hours of Lemons car.
The Contour is pretty fun right now because we chopped the body off and put a '65 Mustang body on it (the Mustang body was super rusted and headed to the scrap yard if we didn't buy it). So now we have the world's first FWD performance Mustang hah.
We themed it like Ken Block's Hoonicorn Mustang and called it the "Hooptiecorn". It got a lot of attention at the Lemons race last weekend, and Ken Block even saw pictures of it and shared it on his Facebook page where it got 19,000 likes and 400 shares last I checked. They also did an article on it for Roadkill.com: http://www.roadkill.com/lemons-team-creates-low-buck-ken-block-replica/

two coworkers of mine just came back from Alabama racing their e30. They came in 18th I believe... Seems like cool weekend! Congrats on that mustang/contour! That is a work of art! I LOVE IT!

Even though I hate all things FWD, I gotta give credit where credit is due- That is hilarious. Post up some build pics. Were the wheelbases the same or did you cut up the body to fit?2/12/2016 12:15:46 PM |

I didn't know so many of you are doing the Lemons thing. My friends have the Super Westerfield Bros car. They finished 8th i think last weekend at Barber. I know some of the other THSCC guys teams, but i don't always like to claim those morons.
I have an E36 track car. It looks like every other white E36 M3. I do Time Trials with a club called COMSCC up here in New England. 2/13/2016 2:57:07 PM |

^^I traded it in at a dealer in Winston Salem. After that is anybody's guess. I would bet it turned pretty quickly though.

Got an exhaust. Talk about a *insert nice car* premium!
Went from the world of $200 240sx exhausts to $2000 Porsche exhausts

All exhausts are expensive these days. Go price up exhaust systems for a BRZ.
What brand you go with? 10/22/2018 1:15:04 PM |

^^I went with Soul Performance after watching way too many Youtube videos. And holy $1000 BRZ exhausts Apparently, the 240 used market had me spoiled.

Current situation:
The Macan S is my dad's retirement gift to himself, but my parents live with me so the car stays in the same stable
The Cayenne Turbo came about because I was tired of the crazy transmission in my '17 Sienna. I was wanting a Kia Carnival, but in this market, the Cayenne was cheaper I regret having lost the 3rd row but it's a lot of smiles per mile. I'll really consider the move again if/when the Carnival gets a hybrid drivetrain.

Too many SUVs and "fake" Porsches in that driveway At least the Macan doesn't have a VW engine in it

Well done sir. Recently finished a 100% custom exhaust install, now it just needs new rear axles and an engine mount. The parts are here, just need to get off my lazy ass and do it. 6/27/2022 1:40:11 PM |

^^ I knew it was an MR-S too with that tail light shape Stick a K24 in there
I've never been in a "sporty" SUV other than the two there, but their handling and suspension blow me away. The Cayman is basically my daily driver, but the two SUVs always leave me super impressed. The Macan is on static springs feels every bit as good as the Cayenne on air suspension. The only thing wanting from those two is hydraulic steering The electric steering's lack of feedback makes corner-carving a bit twitchier and I always have to be more mindful. The Cayman's steering is much more intuitive.

^Gonna track/race that stock 1ZZ until it pops. Then we'll talk replacement, haha - though more likely it'll be a 2ZZ. This is an endurance budget racer.
