Today i picked up the Black FTO mivec 1997....ex car of ACE (sandy bay) from Tasma Car sales.
Peter looked after me and is repairing a few things which are not right (at his expense) and going the extra mile.

The car is as follows
Mivec engine. Modifications such as carbon fibre bonnet,topmix wing and front lips, genuine momo steering and gear knob, custom el dials,remote entry, 6000k HID, lowered with kingsprings. HKS super dragger exhaust, FTO HKS air inflow,18' rims, immobiliser.

Thanks for the welcome Ash,
Driving the FTO is a bit addictive...its like a town car,idling around and a sports car all in one
It might be a surprize to some but i am 6'5 and sill manage to feel comfortable with enough leg room. I will see about posting some pictures...

Welcome to the club!
A very nice FTO you have there

Yet another MIVEC. I swear everyone has one but me.
Even the sales guy I dropped my car off to today, to get a new alarm installed, even he has one! lol.

I am starting to not feel unique...

Hehehe...not likely...I'll concentrate on a bit of paint for the bonnet and maybe a phone arial ....not that keen on the straight CF bonnet look. This cars a keeper for me....don't imagine I'll get sick of it any time soon

Thanks for the welcome....just lucky I guess...was going to buy a 300zx but the deal fell through and I saw this one and took it for a drive and the rest is history....reliability of the FTO is a big plus

Welcome to the club. Nice looking front kit and wing.

Ftos are not reliable
