no use counting the JDM's ones and others... if we did it would obvoiusly be
the aussie spec SP, followed by JDM spec RZ.

overhere I think it's..
1. CYM R1.........and a close ...
2. Silver R2's

I mean it's nice and all to have a R2...but when you mod your Silver PEG beyond R2 status...I'm happy..

1. add the oil cooler
2. get all the suspension goodies
3. get better seats
4. add the R1/R2 air dam
5. etc etc..

In others world... I dont use my Cruise...but I really do love venting the sunroof on hot days...rolling down the windows going 80+ is too loud

nah, i have a good reason for counting the JDM ones specifically. I have done a little more research on the FD's (im alot more familiar with FC's) to distinguish the individual trim levels, and i understand that RZ then RS then R would be the most desirable ones. What is special about a bathurst, though? i still dont really get that

also, what is special about an aus spec SP (especially to make it more desiable than an RZ??), and where can i find some more info about that

Wanna buy mine? How much would it be worth to you? Remember it's only got 7500 miles and about every performance goody that you can get.

I'm not really serious just to make that clear Although if it was above $30k......nope!

Still haven't found a car yet? Is the Silver R2 what your waiting for? You have a long wait.... I'm not tired of her yet

Most desireable would be a White 2002 RZ.
