Nice find! Well done car. The 911SC's weren't all that super awesome but this has been upgraded and the old lump of an engine banished for something with more ass. :notbad: Love the whale tail and Fuchs wheels.

Hot rodded with a totally rebuilt engine. Has a dyno sheet but says the cams were replaced with something less aggressive, and then the seller says it now makes 247 WHP. IDK that's still a good amount. Nice car. Interior is killer.

Also I don't get the aircooled Porsche boners. I like the 993, outside of that they are just mediocre old cars that need constant attention and have few redeeming qualities outside of the :jizz: fest appreciation.

Honda Beat is my distant 2nd choice for kei car, the AZ1 that I posted the other day is what I really want to get someday when I have a garaj mahal.

Eh, NBD. You really go through drive thrus that often?
No...almost never.

But between toll booths, parking boots, and parking stations, I encounter something requiring left hand access a few times a week, if not more. Hell, there's an access booth we have to check into to get to certain building on campus for work...weekly.

A right hand drive car would be a pain in the ass.
But the level of total dominance as a JDM street racer would overcome dat doe.

back then almost 200 hp for a 4 banger was a big deal, especially for an NA engine. Even v8's at that time make power just a little more than that.

Yea well a 10-megabyte hard drive cost 5k. Doesn't mean that we should pay that price for it today.

E30M3 simply looks awesome and isn't depreciating. IMO you don't buy one of those to drive it, you buy it to look cool in your collection and have it cost you nothing.
