Yes, I like the Ur Quattro as well... unfortunately it's now a bit hard to come by and a bit, well, collectory. Also if you own a classic or future classic car (Sierra Cos, Ur Quattro, R32 Skyline GTR) then that's a dangerous track to go down. You may turn into one of those bores who spends every waking hour eulogising about that time you rechromed the bumpers using only your teeth and your wife's old undercrackers that you find at classic car meets.
Hey, you're going to spend a fait amount of money, and you'd want a nice interior for YOURSELF wouldnt u lol Not Tacky plastic...A good example of build quality, just check out the Audi RS6*droool*
RESPEC for liking the Ur quattro:shade: That is enough to tell me u know your cars, well a bit atleast. Although the R32 has yet to have entered my classic status list.
If you've ever been a passenger or better still driven a Ur quattro you'll know what all the fuss is about, just sheeer brute turbo power, all that lag and then booof! A nice surge of power:D Not to mention going round corners twice the speed of all the other motorists. If u ever get a chance to test drive one, just pose as a phoney buyer lol DO IT! Just remember the feeling you got when u put ur foot down, the engine GROWL, the back squating down, the front lifting, the whole experience blows me away everytime i'm in one :coolious:
My friends got one tuned to approx 300 bhp, may not sound much compared to the evo's and scoobies of now, but it's out of this world lol Just a wicked old skool rally legend for the road, and much much more succesful than any cossie in rallying, especially the 'sport quattro' That was the short wheel based one, with i think 305 brake, 0-60 4.9...and this was about over 20 years ago!
Another i think that deserves classic status and has it! Is the Lancia Delta Integrale/Evo They were sweeeet! Although i still believe the designer looked at the Ur Quattro/sport Quattro before he designed the flared wide arches lol But then i would say that!
OH yeah how could i forget another 2 classics or atleast most defo going to become a classic, The Lotus Omega/Carlton- The fastest four door saloon production car *drools* 377bhp, 419 torque! Rear wheel drive, looooadsa fun! And.....The fastest estate car when it was launched, the Audi RS2!! Woot Wooot! I should be gettin the S2 soon, slightly less in power, for the more mortal of us lol The RS2 got from 0-30mph in 1.5 secs, thats the same as the once fastest car on the planet! The Mclaren F1!
And yeah when u own a car like the above mentioned you would want to look after it, and if u think you shouldnt then i think it's time for you to sell it! Even so, they SHOULD be driven! And when you feel a bit 'good':playing: drive it like u stole it!!!
BTW there's always one or two Ur quattro's for sale here and there, not too hard to get, but to get the correct one is a different matter ;)
Oh and my apologies for going off track in this civic thread lol I think we should have a classic car thread or something, we did have a cars thread here somewhere..
Peeeaceee
