:( The best xr mock is gone, but will always be remembered.
-The unique colour :shock:
-The neat ride height
-The custom badges
-The AWSOM dash (If only it could be corresed one more time LOL)
-The nice sound of the EPA legal note
-The custom engine bay
-The N/A 150rwkw

But we still have the drive and that is the only thing that matters! :D

GO THE XR :!:

seems if you crash a ford and walk away you a very lucky person, but if you crash a skyline you're d**k head, idiot, moron, dont deserve a car.............


Cant help but agree - and this is why:

As much as I hate to see a wrecked car, anyone who drives a car in a manner where there is a 1 in 10 chance of crashing on a public road (on unroadworthy tires) needs a kick up the a**.
