Yeah I have to agree. I would have to say its a kids car.... I mean its a nice car yes but it has issues

1.small intercooler
2.mix matched rims....from drifting?
3.mix matched body kit that doesn't flow
4.if you look closely like every body panel is a different shade of gold

why would you have to say its a kids car? i don't really see how any of the things you pointed out show that its a kids car

1.small intercooler
2.mix matched rims....from drifting?
3.mix matched body kit that doesn't flow
4.if you look closely like every body panel is a different shade of gold

1.- why get an oversized ic if you don't need one?
2. they look like temps i'm sure he doesn't wear them like that all the time, so what if he drifts?
3. i honestly think it looks pretty good
4. let me see a pic of your car, his paint looks pretty good except for some chips on the front, just looks like he likes to drive his car, so what

i said it looked like a kids car cause it looks like a more purpose driven car/ work in progress. It basically looks like mine right now. I said mis matched wheels cause mine are mis-matched from drifting right now as we speak... I have 3 sets of wheels that just rotate in the rear.

Shi**y old picture of mine it looks a lot better than that now.

I agree with you.

TheRonTom3, I think being "purpose driven" is probably the owner's point. These cars are getting old, and for some (including me) they're just fun hunks of metal. I personally don't care if there are scratches on my car or my wheels are mismatched as long as I'm having fun driving the car.

its not awkward at all. I can hop off my bike, drive one of the firetrucks, then hop in the soarer and drive it with no problems. the hardest part to remember is that the turn signals and windsheild wipers controls are on opposite sides of the wheel.


and quit hatin on that gold one, if you don't like it then fine, luckily its owned by someone who appreciates it. hella better than some of the rides on here

don't the widebody have a weird lighting problem when you drive them around even if the paint is all even? it still looks like it's a diff shades on the 1/4 panels and the door.

I always wanted this one. I found it a while ago when I first got my GZ20.

It's a Soarer convertible with a supercharged V8. The hood is the only I could live without but I guess you need it for clearance issues.

I’m not normally a convertible fan, but I could have my arm twisted into driving that convertible.

please explain how this car has a small intercooler ?
that is the standard aftermarket size doe this car, behind that bumper the intercooler goes up another 6" or so.
