White FD's left...

Is there anyone who can find figures as to how many White 3rd Gens are left in the US?? My first FD was a white one, and I'm trying to find another that isn't ruined, but it's starting to look hopeless. How many on this forum have decent shape White FD's?? Anyone have a shell for sale by chance??

95 White Original

Still have my White 95 Touring in amazing condition.
Only 50K.
Just put in new engine from KDR only 2K.
Just came across my window sticker from the dealer that list it at 41,892. Have spent that and alittle more over the past 12 years in upkeep and mods. Will keep on throwing in the $$$ to keep such a unique and well worth it ride.

I had a perfect one back in 2000, 94 base with black interior, 29000 orig miles, had to sell it and it broke my heart. The guy on this forum that i sold it to put a V8 in it, he sucks.

i grabbed a white w/ tan interior 94 touring w/ 77k miles on it from massachusetts (im in jersey). Car was absolutely molested but I'm slowly bringing it back to good shape. it runs now with a big streetport and t04z setup now I'm tweaking and tidying up some small problems areas, then all i need is tuning and a paintjob.

oh and the car also used to be automatic but somewhere along the line someone did a proper conversion.

No, impossible to determine. We have a count of the registered FDs left stickied and the total production numbers in the FAQ. No way to do more than that.

I'd also like a white one I think, though I really just want something with an all black interior. I'll probably get it repainted eventually anyway depending on the paint condition.

In your post you say you cant find any that aren't ruined and at the same time you ask for a shell??

There are a lot of high quality white fds left out there, you just have to pay to play.

You wont find any original 5 speed white fds with original paint for the typical $12k-14k price range. If you do, you have found a helluva deal unless it has 150k miles.

I get more requests for white fds than any other color. Silver is 2nd. The funniest thing I find is most people always list yellow as the one color they refuse to buy when they send emails to our site when they are looking to buy

I could usually care less when people change colors but why does it have to be a white one?

If you want to do single turbo, you can find a white roller then get used white parts from japan where they are plentiful.

ZOMG MINES BLACK!


I thought about painting it white though. White FD's are HOT. I hear it's really damn hard to paint a black car white though... so I guess that won't happen.

Juice dont ruin a white one, there are only a few left that aren't wrecked. They are pretty much as rare as yellow ones.....

I guess im either looking for a stock one, or a roller that I can comletely rebuild. I do not want someone else's singe turbo nightmare, I have been down the highly modified road and in the end, it's not really worth it. I actually looked at your website and planned on contacting you at some point, I probably still will. I periodically check your site for a good FD. I have the money, but I have an EVO 9 im trying to sell right now and will be looking to buy once it's gone.

There were only 672 Chaste Whites imported, so in all likelihood, there are probably between 550 and 600 left operational.

Looked for over 6 months to find my 94 and I love it, I am happy that I was patient enough to wait for one to come up for sale in my area, I was going to leave it stock but I guess when you want to spoil your car it wont turn out that way, you just want to keep buying stuff for it..lol...
