FTO AUSTRALIA

Hey Guys,

Don't know if there is a thread like this up here, but I figured we can never express enough FTO self love..

I'll kick it off, I love a couple things:
-The MIVEC roar
- As I don't have any badges on it (and the FTO being a not so common car) I love that most people have no idea what it is and walk around it trying to figure it out!

fairly unique
the styling
the whole fact that I can look at it and say I made this into my own peice of art with big self satisfaction

oh and the way it really comes to life in the twistys

the sound of MIVEC in the morning.
the low fuel consumption
the design

i have a longer hate list meanwhile

Nothing.

Absolute POS IMHO.

LOL JK ROFL.

I like the way it looks, sounds and handles.

Unfortunately, my hate list is also much longer at the moment.

What isn't there to love? Seriously.

I love the hiss of the turbo as it starts winding up hahahahahha

and the only thing I hate is it not being RWD or at least AWD

I love its styling, the curve.

I love the sound of mivec.

what i hate is its age which means you always find parts which needs to be replaced/repaired constantly.

folding mirrors ftw..

blue seats ..

enjoy handling on car and the kick,looks cool to,

i copped that once too. and also GTO

i was waiting for "aston martin" actually...lol

Before the r35 gt-r launched.. i got a lot of "Is that the new gtr ?!?!" with the v35

LoveD my fto for it's styling (facelift ftw), handling, hp/displacement output, good brakes from factory and it's low numbers on the roads compared to a lot of other sports cars.

The interior was also very cosy/comfy for a sport car. I used to sleep in it during long uni breaks. Their ease of being modded was also great.

yeh i like how the seat wraps around you, really comfy to sleep in


although i think they are less insulated than most other cars

Classic styling, blows people away when I tell them it's 15 years old.

Also reliability. Hoping not to jinx myself here, but I'm presently 'touching wood'

A very advanced feature for its heyday.

A Tip box that learns your style of driving.

Most new autos don't even do that. You gotta congratulate Japanese engineering.
