congrats & drive her in good health ... join FOCS mate ... that way u can join for driving and social events ...
Hope he is ok, having said that .. Most of my friends just dislike the LTA and .. We don't wish for any harm to anyone . Most of them Are just doing their job. There is this particular one LTA 19, and he is a real pain.. Oh well
Hehe.. Bro.. You not the only one.. A while back my friend showed me. YouTube video and he said .. You should listen to this Taiwanese exhaust .. And I said.. No way mate .. TUBI and the rest sounds better.. Heheh.. Boy .. Was I mistaken
Enjoy and hope to see pics as many here are not FOCS members , and non exotic memebers are not welcome for drives. Saw a red one gunning around . Some white or Indian dude driving it around the city but it sounded if it had aftermarket exhaust .
Well, you can always pick up a Porsche, Lotus & even entry Ferraris are affordable considering how expensive Jap cars are these days. Btw, i'm not even an FOCS member ><" after a while all these clubs things are just like visiting Ktvs, you get jaded whether they're Jap, Korean or Italians
Yes Bro, .. Lol.. Cause I asked to join but my EVo was looked down upon. I am considering a C4s , and there is a nice 993 for sale . Any idea what is a fair price to offer as I have to pay COE . Not a fan of Lotus unfortunately even though they are very good cars .
Bro bro. I see that you have always had a problem with this issue & perhaps those closet browsers as well so please allow me to share my thoughts. Well it's the pedigree you see. In layman terms yes, looked down. This is a sensitive issue & fine line just like nude photography. If you understand how the world evolves you'll know. Having a fast car doesn't guarantee a ticket to exclusivity even if you're faster just like in the world of education, we have the different leagues. When I was a pilot trainee, we have the superstar scholars. There were those who were awarded LKY or President's and depends if they went to Cambridge, Ivy leagues or Top Gun, perhaps both & someone came back with double Masters Then you have the regular SAF scholars who went to some 2nd tier overseas colleges followed by local Uni & I'm the lowest, "farmer". In SAF, pilots are the elites. Only about 1% of our males get selected so being the lowest ranked of that is not that bad lah but of course I joined the ranks of the 90% of that 1% to get booted Those officers mix among their cohort & so does their promotions. Just run a check on our Transport minister & you'll see how he got his star. Another Eg. when I attend big events in Europe, a Ferrari 430 or even 458 is a nobody when you're in the company of 250SWB, 275GT, Maserati 300S, AM DB3S even my beloved a Gullwing, the original 300SL is a dime in a dozen. Long ago, I bought my first Ferrari. The 348, it was the love of my life, paid with my own pocket and very proud of it even though it is a dog. I would even use a toothbrush to clean the engine bay but when I joined the local scene they didn't bother with this old dog as the bellas & senoire were all glued to the latest model, the F360 with the see-me-here engine bay under a glass! This cycle repeats itself. Now most of us here like Jap performance & have them. I still have an R34 and always have a soft spot for Evos. At the end of the day it is your ride. As long as you're happy with it & shower with TLC why bother the rest? Just like there is the Ferrari and there are The Ferraris. It's a never-ending world so get over it or you'll never be happy.
Oh I think in summary of my rubbish. You don't wear T-shirt & slippers to a Black Tie event do you? Well, you get the drift & it's my opinion only ok As for adding coe, be very careful here as our coe is @ all time high so those that are about to expire will probably be exported unless the parf & body value is low. As for 993s.... the owners are in a fix. Especially the normal 993s cos the body is not worth much now for export & too old for some countries plus the fact that they paid a premium so it's a do or die. Finally, they're nailed with little assistance in financing. It's very sad.
Thanks Jon and yes i understand where you are coming from , and well I am glad that people like you , Harold , MP and a few others are cool with speaking with a fellow enthusiast . For the 993 , I would try and see what's a fair offer . I really like the. 993 C4S cabriolet and none for sale , and autobahn is out to bleed anyone that enquiries .
NP. Did they make C4S cab for 993? Think there's only C2 & C4 cabs not sure if wide bodies were offered.
You are probably right ! My friend used to own a silver one with Maroon top and it has been sold. It was involved in a few accidents . Nothing major. If the current owner sells, I am deff interested .
