I am wondering if there are any users that have other "fun" cars that aren't DSMs.
I really want to build a V8 boosted car, obviously not in the ugly shells they come in, I probably won't do a vette.
This car would be my quest for an ultimate street car basically that could do anything I wanted it to decently well.
But I want something fast.
But then I see other guys with 35R cars destroying 600-700hp cars and even liter bikes. I mean i have a 16G and I beat most 450whp V8 cars I run into.

Just want some opinions because I don't see owning 2 fun cars because I would always want to drive the fast one.

I guess I mean, do the others really replace it or are they just different.
Like I have driven my friends cars and V8 torque is sweet, but there is something about my car that I love and the fact that I don't have to worry about traction that much.

I simply can't have two fun cars because I can't afford it. I think there is just something special, and addicting about DSMs... I'm at the point where a little more money would make my car awesome, but at the same time I could be buyin an Evo or something, and start with something a little different... Money dumped into any car is money basically thrown away.

after driving the fiero a couple times around the block I love it, the constant wheel spin though is a lil meh. good set of tires should help that.

I loved putting my dsm together. I for sure like "building cars"
I think I might be ready for more of a challenge and more power.
