saw one parked at a sevo near seven hills, forgot what it was called since i was on the train and i was just looking outside haha. it was around 8am? i think it was a gpx with a gr wing.
saw one today on old windsor road heading away from james ruse not sure where he/she was going just drove by it and then lost them haha.
and saw one last night at doonside station around 830pm i think? it was a silver gpx with a mother f***n loud exhaust haha.

yeah thats true! ive seen trashed fto's. just by the paint you can tell whether theyve looked after it.
not as common as s15's. i wanted one but way too common and no point if its not turbo haha its like buying a non turbo skyline.

I did see this silver prefacelift fto at blacktown westpoint top floor parking, with big chrome wheels, worn paint and bogged roof rust holes in the roof... Left a flyer on the windshield. Looked semi neglected though.

I have to admit that there is a silly amount over here. So yeah common is a good word to use, i would see at least 4/5 different FTO's a week, not inc people i know who own them. As apposed to a GTO/3000GT i would pass or see one of them once or twice a month(I own a GTO) Just goes to show how many of them had been Imported

Im in brissie and im very lucky to see 1 a fortnight...in sydney they are a bit more common, and possibly but i never seem to catch them and im on the road a fair bit.
in 6 months ive had one person possibly spot me... i dont see them and they dont see me - live in coorparoo and drive to victoria point and slacks creek 5 times a week and still nothing!
nobody loves me

My car looks like sh*t but when it comes to engine its had everything replaced
Problem with ftos are its so rare to find a nice one that all your money goes to fixing sh*t thats gone wrong
