Your old or other cars.

[Philly]

Didn't see a topic on this.. but I thought it'd be cool to see everyones other cars.. whether they be older, or another one in the driveway.

and the reason I ended up getting my TI...
my 02' Spec-V... this puppy was QUICK.. I never got to dyno it, but based on cars with the mostly the same mods, it was probably around 220 HP - close to 180 whp.

may she rest in pieces.

Thanks. Yep that is a DD. The 318ti is sitting in S10Mafia50's heated garage...on jack stands and only a dash in it.

Yes the 6 speed is really nice.

You had a nice SE-R. I bet it took some time to adjust to the power or lack there of in the ti.

[Philly]

lol.. i whined for weeks after I bought it!!
but the looks i get from people in my area and the people i work with at the plant, everyone just reacts to it, at work they call me 'rich-kid' cause of the car lol and im far from rich
so all that kind of counter-acts my need for speed...
and being a RWD and a perfect 50/50 weight distribution was a nice compromise.

but i got off on the 'fast, family 4 door' gimmick... people would look at it like another regular sentra and oh what a mistake lol

[zboot]

really. . . didn't fool me. . .

[Philly]

would make the TI look sad and tons of others...
maybe not all that fast in your books but it was my first car, i liked it, pulled hard, looked good... so eat me

back on topic though.. i thought this would be a good thread to see everyones ride before their TI's.

taught i'd share.....


i have only been driving since august 2005 so i dont have an impressive collection by any means......


anyway april 2005 i was supposed to be getting a vw polo (incase yous dont know what it is : http://i.bigmir.net/auto/22146_0.jpg) but my dad told me to hold out a few months and i'll get my moms car instead...

i did but my mom never got the new car she wanted but i still got hers while she drove a micra (http://www.sscars.ru/en/cars/38_1.jpg) i kno im terrible....


anyway the car i got off her was a 1996 318tds sedan... im sure yous never got them there, it was a 1.7 td... (looked exactly like this one http://www.usedcars.ie/usedcars/inde...r&carID=574417 i dont have a picture handy.... i drove the car for six months... got sick of the lack of power and felt bad for my mom so i got a loan and bought my iS...

btw that "crappy" diesel is still in my driveway and my dad says it wont leave until it has completely fallen apart and is ready for scrap... its extremely economic and hasnt ever given any trouble....

[wasabinuki]

I still miss my '89 Civic Si occasionally... but not very often. Actually, I only miss a couple of things... the moon roof and they way the seats fit me so much better than the 318ti. I bought it new... had it for 17 years. It's still running somewhere... but from what I hear, it's been painted green (which must be ugly combined with the black/grey/red interior) and has a fart can on it. That makes me sad.
