EDIT: You'll have to click the link to watch it, cos for some reason YouTube embedding doesn't work here...
It works if you remove everything but the video 'ID' (0E6IWgdonCc) :thumbsup:

I dunno, I bought a Soarer for 800 quid and spent another 500 or so on mods after some shopping. Bomb proof 1Jz, 280-300bhp stock (non vvti / vvti) stock, 350-400 with some light fettling, electronically controlled suspension, leather, electric EVERYTHING (including a valet mode lol) Think it has to be the best sub 1k car I've bought..

My mate's rex cost him around 2500 pounds, needed a good grand or two spending not long after, and was left long, long in the dust by my z4m whereas the soarer could pull from m3's.. in a straight line that is.. Great cars, but think there's a lot out there that will be just as much/more enjoyable
