...and kept up with a Lambo Murcielago till 4th gear, and kept up with a Maserati Quattreporte somewhat.

Were they eating chips until you got to 4th gear and then started off the line??

I have seen a 360 whp Subaru WRX easily get smoked by a Murci before, so either you are mistaken or the driver was a complete idiot...

Kinda lol. He was screwing with me till 4th then when he saw I was gonna go ahead he let it rip and left me by about 1 1/2 bus lengths. The driver of that Subi must not know how to drive for crap, I've seen an STi with just an upgraded stage 2 turbo take on a Corvette and stay with it very closely. Not very dissimilar situations.

The Maserati on the other hand, was nowhere near as fast I thought it would be considering it has Ferrari V8 in its engine bay. At the end, both gunning it he was pulling away and left me by about 2 cars. Considering my car is an entry level luxury sports coupe whereas a Maserati is a super luxury sports sedan I think I fared well. 330 hp vs. 440 hp. I guess the curb weight of that beast had something to do with it though. Weighs about 4,400 lbs.

It is illegal, but people hardly get stopped for it. If they are just smoked a little and not completely black, you should be able to get away with it...

haha, why buy a 20 year old car??

With the scrappage scheme coming out im sure parts will become avalible and also i quite like the saloons looks and also its quite a hip car to modify and it should have decent space for carrying stuff in it [like shopping bags and football stuff]

also i want to know how safe it is
because havent most car drivers we know had a crash at one time?

Any car that old cannot be even close to as safe as newer cars. Does the thing even have airbags, because I do not even think they were required back then!

Meh. That shit isn't as good as it's advertised (what is though, huh?). I recommend Meguiar's for wash, wax, touch up wax, polish, tires, leather etc. Their entire line of products is top notch. Eagle One Nanowax is really good as well though. For really nice tires use Armor All Extreme Tire Shine. You gotta invest in lots of microfibers and maybe a chamois and a lot of terry towels to make your car cleaning set be complete.

recently bought the armor all tire shine it works beautifully, shine is amazing. i had a black magic one before and it was horrible.

Yeah, it's siiiick. I tried black magic too, it lasts like 3 days.

 

[pazzainteramala]

if found black magic cleaner foam to work great. how can i get my rims to shine and is there a way to protect them from brake dust so it will make it easier to clean. they are alloy by the way.

Armor All Extreme lasts like 2 weeks and stays super black and shiny.

Brake dust is a bitch...and aluminum alloy wheels are quite difficult to clean. Meguiar's makes a product for that too tho. Just finish polishing them off with a microfiber and those suckers will shiiiiiine.
