I got it to where it's not as blatantly noticeable, at least from a small distance it's not too bad. I don't have very much in my car, I'll be able to break even if not make money. So that's not an issue. If I sell it I'll buy something else. I would respray the car, but I hate red. The cost of a proper color change would cost more than the car is worth. Ignoring it isn't an option either, I'm too OCD.

The only reason I bought it is because it belonged to my uncle. Had it not been for that I'd be in something else.

I can't, we didn't get it over here. I'm thinking about a MKIII Supra Turbo.

D: that would be mean! Unfortunately over here we can't import vehicles older than 2005. Which is a shame.

If i had the money i'd buy a AE86 GT w/ bodykit. 50k later haha

Over here they have to be 25 years old or older to import and title. My first car was a MKIII Supra, so it'd be nice to have one again. Though this time with more choo choo sounds. All of the AE86's have been riced and ragged out by punk ass kids who think they can drift. Besides, it isn't faster than what I have now. Certainly isn't more comfortable either. The Supra is faster, and a million times more comfortable. So yay. tongue.gif

Not all AE86's are riced tongue.gif

My friend has one that is completely stripped back waiting to be restored, no rice on it smile.gif

All the ones over here are trashed, so maybe your friend just got really lucky.
