    there is an entire thread put together about what to look for when buying and some key things to go over when you've first got one. Find that and it will answer 90% of your questions. Searching is like initiation. help yourself first and you get plenty of help in return

    Don't buy a 16+ year old performance car if you can't even find info here/too lazy to care. (they are RIGHT THERE).
