Well I've had it a week,

So I thought it was time I showed off my new toy...

It's a Mitsubishi FTO GPX

2.0 L V6 MIVEC engine (like Hondas VTEC)
4 Speed Tiptronic Auto Box
Aircon/Climate Control
Elec Folding Mirrors (For showing off in tescos car park...)

0-60 is about 8 sec which isn't bad for an auto although almost 200 BHP does help I suppose.

Oh yeah, and it has a very useable boot...:D :D :D

Nice collection Steve,

I did consider the Integra when I was looking for a replacement for the calibra but decided to go for something different instead....

The car isn't bad John,

It's got a few parking dents in the passenger door but other than that it's in pretty good shape.

I thought about importing one but decided I couldn't wait that long for one to arrive and be registered etc.

This one is a nice ride, it's a shame that it doesn't come with cruise control but none of them do so I can put up with that...

Being an auto, it's quite relaxing to drive but if you either plant your foot or use the tiptronic function then it can take off quite nicely.
