Default ITR Replacement?

With all the theivery going around, I've noticed people are more willing to look at other cars. If for some reason, you were to be without your ITR? What would get? not necessarily in the same price range...

I'd probably go for a CTR copy, maybe an E30 M3, or even a Evo VII if they are decent.

What about you?

Right now, I'd get an M coupe...used. The resale values are low and you can get a great deal. If not that, I'd wait a yr and get a WRX Sti.

I'd like to add a white one too. My dad used to have one and that thing was awesome. Those are rarer than ITRs now.

Or, E30 M3 w/ Evo package.


Or, SC300 + supra turbo + tranny.

Or, for a weekend driver:
1. BMW 2002ti
2. Datsun 1600
3. Datsun 510
... all restored to perfection.

I think E30 Evo would make the search hard enough... but a unmodified E30 Evo = hardest to find.

Yeah... E30 M3's are worse than ITR's... if you find one unmodified, they are asking close to $20k+ (after 10 years in the market!) I love those things... that car has one thing that ITR lacks... RWD power!!!

Its RWD yes, but with the original 4 cyl motor, its certainly LACKING in power.

I would get the new Mustang Cobra with 390hp, supercharged. Do some suspension work, weight reduction, and replace the stock seats with some SRDs or something.

Rob - is that real? If not - for the faux CTR.

True, but nothing a good set of cams and increase in displacement won't cure.

What's wrong with faux CTR if it's got all the internals + suspension + roll-cage, etc?

nothing wrong with the car, except the incorrect badging...kinda like when someone makes an ITR out of a car that's not an ITR.

a GSR with an ITR motor/tranny/suspension/ITR stickers and badges is still a gsr.....

a rose by any other name, is still a rose
