So it looks like I'm buying an FTO...
Hello, my name is Mitch
I'm 19, 20 in August. I've owned a number of cars (in this order) 92' Mitsubishi Express, 89' Nissan Pintara, 94 Daihatsu Applause, 92 Toyota Cressida, 98 Nissan Pulsar and possibly FTO in the comming month. (Yeah a lot of cars for a 19 year old?)
I've had my play around with garbage, so far my favourite has been my Cressida (Man I loved that thing) but I sold it before it died on me and brought a bog standard Pulsar plus 1.6L, driving hasn't been the same since...
But things are looking up, in the coming month I may be buying a 1995 GPX FTO, custom Orange paintwork, custom mirrors w/ inbuild indicators, extractors 2" exhaust to a 3" cannon, big sound system, dark tint, rolled guards and altered offset on rear to fit 19" black Konig Hotswaps, G4 coilovers, aftermarket sway bars and front and rear strut braces, orange interior inserts on seats/dash/doors/ect. You may know this beautiful car as Nemo (NEMO-2L). There are plenty more modifications but off te top of my head I can't think of any (oh heavy duty clutch).
So I thought I would introduce myself here, hello.
Oh I was at the DIY day in sydney a couple of years back at the FTO meet and I was at the Mitsubishi Dyno Day in Raymond Terrace.
Thanks guys!

Hey mate welcome, well once you drive the fto for a while, you wonder why it took you so long to buy one 

CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

WTTC
as I was reading your post I was saying that this car sounds like Nemo then you said it was lol.
We know this car as the owner was a member but has not been on for some time now.

I talk a lot of sh*t, usually have to keep a roll of toilet paper handy in the car for my mouth
