hi everyone... i am thinking to get a late model FTO GPX... hopefully a stock car without any modifications...
just a few queries hoping to be answered...
i live in sydney, firstly where should i look for one (locally and imported)? then is there any place specialised to service FTO? are parts expensive and hard to get?
many thanks in advance...

Hi mate... WTTC...
Where abouts in Sydney are ya... There are quite a few of us...
Try having a look in the for sale section, as there may be some bargains... Other then that, if you want to import try Jspec ... Car Sales always has a few too ...
As for who to service, there are a couple of topics here covering that one... I am not sure of the links off the top of my head, but try a search ... You may find it...
Good luck hunting for the car, they are a great bang for buck ...

dodgy mechanics arent make/model specific. a good mechanic shouldnt charge for his learning time
