wow, yellow is starting to look more appealing

I've got my eye on one at the moment that seems to tick all the boxes, except for one, its yellow, and I'm not sure I want a yellow car

fantastic information there guys thanks, its the RS200 I'm looking for, and now I know to look for a Z or L version, thanks.

Thanks Fella, Its the sporty version and driving style I'm after, so its the Altezza for me :)

thanks, I had come accross that forum, but it appears to be irish based, maybe I'll pop over there :)

Hiya, yes I have considered the IS300, it looks a great car, but the fact its a 3L puts me off due to fuel consumption, I would guess it would be similar to a non turbo supra, I suspect its even the same engine? hmmmm, that means turbos, hmmm no no no sensible head, must think sensible.................. turNO!!!! NO NO!!!! :) Also I like the fact that the tezza is a bit different :)

Hi all, At last I've managed to find a UK forum that inlcudes the Altezza. Little History about me I am a total petrol head and currently own the following cars Mkiv Supra Twin Turbo Mk1 Mx5 BBR Turbo (Highly modified) Mk1 Mx5 1.8is Mk4 Triumph Spitfire, with a dolly sprint engine ;) I love all those cars, however, as you can see not one of them is a proper 4 seater, and the wife an I are wanting to start a family next year, so I started thinking long and hard about which of those cars I was going to get rid off, the spitfire is never leaving me due to it once belonging to my late father, the 1.8is mx5 was always purchased with the intention of restoring and then selling on, so couldn't be included in this decision, so that left the turbo MX5 and the supra, I have thought about these two for around 4 months now, and I eventually decided it was going to be the supra that goes, the MX5 offers just as much fun and excitement for around a 3rd of the cost, so with my sensible head on it makes the most sense to keep that. so, with that decision made, the next one was to decide what car I could replace it with, it needed to be something cheaper to run, 4 doors, enough room, rear wheel drive, and enough power to excite when needed, and I think I have found that in the Altezza (however I'm yet to drive one). So, when I find one I will hopefully be joining the fold. I would be greatfull if you could furnish me with some of your knowledge of what to look out for when buying one, and also point me in the dirrection of any nice ones that you know are forsale. thanks Garath
