I saw one of those integra type R's, looked the same outside...but he didn't have anything else, not even a fart can!?! My girlfriend laughed at him and he got pretty sad, and then I became sad...we all were sad.

^ Well what's really sad is that white ugly *** thing isn't even a real Type-R (oooh, I felt goosebumps as I typed "Type-R", ooh felt them again, it's such a powerful sounding name). That ricemobile looks just like every other of the millions of "customized" (it's not custom if they all look the same and everyone else has the same ****) pos's.

I should slap some ZL-1 badges on my car.

Speaking of Type-R's (damn goosebumps again), last time at the track some broad was driving a yellow one (looked pretty authentic, and all the ricers were jerkin' off to it,). So I watched to see what the hype was all about with these stupid things, and it lined up against a newer '00+ Celica GTS which was riced out, and both of the buzzing fartmobiles trapped 80-some m.p.h. It was "heads up racing", so there were no count-down lights, and the boards don't show the times, just the speeds. I didn't feel like askin' any of the pre-pubescent ricers or the bimbo driver herself what her actual time was, but judging by the speeds, I'd say slow enough to not give a ****.

I wouldn't look at it at work. It does involve cars, but there is no X/R rated material on the link we get. There are multiple pictures of a car, its heads, and other acceseries. In the first pic, there is a fully cloated girl sitting next to the girl.

It is work safe for some, but just look at it at home

I'd take that car quite happily. Faster than alot of the people on the board and as long as I could make it look stock again it'd be one hell of a sleeper car.

Kills Vipers?

Maybe stay with them, on a 1320 run, at best.

On a highway run, the Vipers 500 ft. lbs. torque will leave the 'Type R' in smoke.

Funny thing is, that wind-up toy likely cost as much as a Viper....

Funny how they never post the MPH after the ¼ - most of the time they don't even have a time either.

The MPH is there on the site, car runs 119. I agree with the viper taking the car on the highway but on the track those damn snakes can't hook. Any guesses why the guy is selling the car for 28K?

I love how the dyno shows that the car is slow as ***** at anything below 5000 .

>>I'd take that car quite happily. Faster than alot of the people on the board and as long as I could make it look stock again it'd be one hell of a sleeper car.<<

Yea, that car would easily own my LS1, but it is FWD, 4-door, pretty ugly, rims, and that power curve doesn't look like much fun. It probably doesn't sound all that good either when the turbo isn't spooling unlike the low ruble we get from our V-8's
