  1. infact this is the only legal Evolution 6 Tommi Makinen Edition which is in Town which was imported in 2001 and is now owned by evilmak. Max you will be suprised to know that there are 3 more Tommi's ( BUDS )
  2. could you send me the link... anyway 350z is totally out of my budget. LOL machan the price difference of a Sti 8 and Sti 9 is merely 1 mil or even less. yesterday i was qouted 7.8 for Sti 8. Bugger must be mad.
  3. machan one car i would buy if its for sale would be your TM. I dont know if there is any car well kept and looked after. Sadly its not for sale. I am still looking as i have time. will see !!!
  4. black one is 9.7 mil and with 15000km on the clock. it has work wheels. suspension and exhausts and its chipped. its 2002 year car.
  5. machan nishans evo 9 costed around 9 mil or a bit more. But thats a GT and GT s in japan are pretty expensive. So i guess a GSR with a lot of depreiciation can be landed at around 8.5. Truly Evo is best bet for money, but imagine when the new model comes how obselete this model will look and i guess you will have to s**t on all the 9 mil you spent on it i guess. So best to wait for, if you are a sti and evo fan. But thank god rx 8 and Z are going to stay for while at least until 2009.
  6. I have seen that 1st kind of dashboard on a nissan coupe in Sri Lanka. It looks like the trad sunny but its more pointish in the front. not sure though.
  7. machan i have put only the cars which are available for sale in Sri Lanka except for the Evo 9. Sti 9 - around 6 units are for sale Sti 8 - around 4 units are for sale Rx 8 - around 7 units are for sale Nissan 350z around 2 units are for sale Evolution - NO UNITS FOR sale except Nishans car ( I dont think he will sell it ) So i did not include any toyotas as there is none in the category for sale also which comes close the above cars performance figures and is unreg.
  8. LOL Mazdaspeed Rx 8 Vs the Nissan 350z http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?se...p;page_number=1
  9. yeah very true, Intresting http://www.edmunds.com/apps/vdpcontainers/...39/pageNumber=3
  10. its almost 9 mil dude. you can buy 3 cars for that price in USA GOOD one, i have learnt that the hardway.... i had to wait to 8 months for my rex, but i sold it at the same price i brought ( LUCKY )
  11. what do you think of the Rx 8 Resale value after one year. Also couple of turbo charges available for the rx 8 in USA, but i guess it needs some brembo brakes badly. buy one and spending another 2 mil not worth when you can buy a Sti with all those mods. what do you think guys. The Black 350z is beauti and would be a real collectors items. I think FOB prices on the Singa Vehicales are lower due to very high mileage. one of my freinds told that he can get me a car for 4.7 mil landed. But at the moment best Rx 8 is with Darin. Just done 400 KM. awesome car.
  12. Value For Money +Performance + Better Resale Value + No Model change Sooner + Not Too Common + Better Style Basically its about having the cake and trying to eat the cake as well LOL....
  13. Hi All. Just would like to know your thoughts on whats the Best Performance car you can buy at the moment. I have given you couple of options. Please put in your Throughts. My View....... ( Taking the view that I am using the car just for one Year ) Subaru STi 9 is a good pick but the New Model will be coming out end of next year i guess which means resale for this car will be very very low. Too common ??? Couple of Sti 8s in the market. GOOD price but is it too old now ????? Evolution 9. Again the New Model will come out soon and that something to wait for. Evo 9 performs well but styling wise it sucks.... price too much ??? Rx 8 Good Styling , Less power, no brembos, but very good handling for a rear car and model will not change pretty soon..... Remember the new Rx 7 will be out next year ( 300 ++ Bhp ) Rx 8 Singapore Version has good price but very high mileage cars. Nissan 350z... 9 mil, good power, good styling.... but is the price too much.....
  14. It Looks like the Scion Tc

    machan whats the car ( The White One ) . I think i have seen couple of those over here.
  16. those are some nice pictures. nice to know that there is such a active club in Sri Lanka.
  17. Masks are still with me..... We will not be able to donate it directly to SSP of Colombo. ( No Photos or Pubilicity ), If so we will have to first write a letter to IGP and get permission. Because of these complications its still with me. How ever we can donate this to Individual Stations or SSP of Peliyagoda ( Without Any Photoshoots or Publicity )
  18. no one can win everyday. if they do its boring for the spectators. just my view

    zul, what do you think of the resale value of this car. Also when you compare the power with subarus do you think you are investing your money on the best possible option. just want to know your thoughts. After i sold my rex, i have been looking at some good options, i guess sti 9 is the only best option i have, but those are sold around 7.8 mil which i feel is not worth if i am only going to use it as a weekend driver. Zul there is a nice 350z black one which i have seen around ( Sorry not advertising )
  20. Just some thoughts. I think Monteros Life Cycle is around 6 Years. Last time when the Most Popular Pajero Came to Sri Lanka it was there for 4-5 years and then they introduced a Face Lift version called the Montero. ( With a Ugly front and Rear Fender). It was just couple of models sold in this and they Launched the all New Montero around one and half years later. ( which is unfair for the consumer ) I just want to know if this is just going to be a facelift version or if it will be a all new model which will stay for 4-5 years. called UML yesterday. It seems they will launch this around JAN next year and it will be priced at around 8.5 mil to 9.3 mil for the petrol version.

    when will the sti 10 will be released.
  22. yeah, they even got a GT wagon. charith, i think the difference of the front is only the lip. I am sure you can even fit on the earlier Evo 9 LIP. but the ralliart CF Lip looks so much hot on the CAR, fuzzo these are 19. i think what MMC offer is 17. this is why it does not look that good. may be i am wrong.
  23. damn, is that Neon Lighting on that MR. Thats a bit RICE.... check the lower pic. And those RAYS WHEELS look UGLY. I wished it had these on as a OPTION on second thoughts that might be the intercooler spray. but the intercooler is the lower part only. i cant read JAP though.... i am sure it cant be neon lights
  24. thanx bro. Damn, honda gets around 180 bhp on a NA CTR engine ( am I correct ) mitsui guys need 1.8 litres and turbo and they still do less than a CTR But i love the New Evo 9 MR. Front looks sleeker than the first Evo 9. Mitsui Openly says its the last of the 4g63.
  25. That 1800 GDI is a TURBO and creates 165PS ( How much is that in BHP ) Pretty Intresting even if the car looks so Cheap.
