Default what should I do?

Just a curious question on what you would do if they were yours.


1997 (CW duh!) has 11k miles on it, no mods, no a/c.
2000 (Black) has 12k miles on it, already modded running 12.6's on the bottle.


Boba- who awaits to hear the opionions of his peers.

Race the yellow one, that way you won't feel so bad when something finally goes crunch or boom.
White one for daily driver, unless the lack of A/C is a problem.

HMMMM. Tough choice there. Do you live ina place where not having A/C during the summer is going to be a problem? If not I would say daily drive the 97. Don't seetoo many of those on the road anymore. Since you are already racing the 2k, I would say leave that as a track only car.

'00 Black - Track and daily drive
'97 White - Keep garaged, bone stock - WEEKEND CAR.

Wish my 2nd ITR was a '97 and not a '01.
'97s are very rare with that kind of mileage.

Sell the '97 to me for $16,000 and turn a $1000 profit. Not too shabby

Hehe,

I say you keep that '97 as a collector car and daily drive, track, and mod the '00. A black one and a white one, huh? Nice.

I just wish we got silver over here too..... Although a jdm front end does look dope on a py with spoon cf hood, lip, and wheels... :drool:

This is a little OT, but I can't believe you found a 97 w/ only 11k miles and no mods. Good find

I'd make both race cars. One All Motor and the other Turbo & Nitorous. Then buy a beater for a daily driver.

ARunto - who think Boba has too many Type-R's

I think you should get aJDM front clip for your 2000 (I don't know if your in to that though) - and don't touch the '97, I would just leave it alone and drive it just a couple of miles a month (only during the summer)
