I don't have many friends, and they don't really have anything interesting. So I guess an acquaintance's car shall do. He has a very very nice FRS, which makes me very very jelly. Anyway, which one of your friends have the most awesomeist car ever!?!?!

Only two of my friends are "in to" cars. One has first gen TC covered in DC decals. He had me paint this on his hood liner. Miraculously it is still there some 7 years later.

The other has a 2009 328xi which is really nice aside from the tiny Nurburgring sticker on the top corner of his windshield. He thought it was a country....

Nice guys though.

None of them. My friends have an awful taste in cars. Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDI, Nissan Micra K11, Daewoo Leganza, MG ZT, Renault Twingo, Fiat Uno, Fiat Marea Weekend JTD, Ford Focus mk 1 1.6 - nothing even slightly interesting.

Yes, in silver.
Too bad the car now spending too much time on the shop because it's old now, so he bought the SLS.

I was going to nominate my friend's Mine's GT-R R35, but i think the 612 is better.

Well, that guy who owns R35 also owns bunch of GT-Rs, like R34 and R35 that tuned by HKS, he also have 2 Mitsubishi Airtrek, Mazda RX-7, and Nissan 370z

Now that makes more sense. I am a bit jealous of your friend. Over here you can get a RB26 for around the same price, this does not include the car.

What type of T-bird are we talking here? If it's one of these bad boys he should autocrossing the T-bird. I had a 94, one of the slowest cars ever, but man did it handle nice.

Snow and what not. I think I would choose awd, pretty brutal acceleration that couldn't be had with just rwd.

It is a 97 with the Essex V6. I drifted it once in a parking lot filled with snow, and it was pretty fun, with a smaller steering wheel it would be much easier to do as well!

His runs pretty terribly though, it was left in the desert by his grandma for about a year and then he was 16 and treated it like crap. Now it won't idle properly and it will random apply throttle.

I have been pushing for him to get it fixed and put a proper set of tires and wheels to go autocrossing! He can do it, he just won't.

One of my friends has a nissan versa, the other has a dodge avenger. Take your pick. Yep that's about it, it's called being a ///M driver. Now if you want to count family everything from a 300 hp first gen vw polo that was an ex race car to an Enzo.

Among my friends? Me...

Here's a list of friends cars: Another Sonic exactly like mine, but without tune/exhaust/etc, 2002 Chrysler Concorde Limited with a squeaky shock and a missing passenger door handle, a 1999 Jeep Cherokee with too many miles of lapsed maintenance, hail damage, and a clopping wheel cover, a 2005ish Ford Focus sedan, a manual 1995ish Civic sedan, base model, green...

EDIT: If you include acquitences/family members (and exclude other opponauts), I know someone with a very nice Boxster (I want to say it's an '08, but I can't remember), my mom drives an A5, and my uncle has an S5 cabriolet

It has a nice motor, and the interior is comfortable. I've driven it, the steering is numb if I'm being generous, the gas pedal feels terrible, and the ride feels tired.

My best friend has a v-6 Challenger which would have been a v-8 had he not gotten a second reckless driving ticket (for excessive speeding) a week before his parents went to pick out the car. My coworker has 05 mustang gt that's been lightly modified, only have seen it twice in seven months though. Hopefully I get the E46 M3 so I can reign supreme.

It's like playing a video game without force feedback.

The suspension probably needs to be redone, but he doesn't plan on keeping it for too long. He wants a BMW.

I got to drive the Scuderia one night. That thing is beyond scary. I haven't driven the other ones, though. All I'd have to do is ask.

I have driven a few cars belonging to friends that I forgot to mention: a Vantage, Audi R8, and a Maserati Gran Turismo. The only one that didn't impress me was the Maserati. The other two were delightful to say the least.

My classmate/colleague/boss has a 3.2 TT that rocks pretty hard. He specifically went to the US to find one with the V6 (we're in Canada). My other friend drives a Mini and it's pretty sweet. The 3 of us are probably the only people I really know that actually like driving.

most R32 GTR's are anywhere between $17k and $40k depending on the condition (and sentimental pricing of the seller).
There was a small number of Australian delivered GTR's which are worth more than the imported ones.

$25k is about the sweet spot for something in good condition/mileage without too many extreme mods. They're pretty high on my list of cars to replace my MR2 with if I ever get bored.. but I'll probably go a Stagea as having space to carry things seems novel.

One of my friends is restoring a C3 Corvette to look a bit like this.

As you've all heard me rant, other friends of mine have car such as an FRS, '02 Mustang GT, Porsche 914, another C3 Corvette, a '95 Firebird, and a couple others I can't remember at the moment.
