Which car would you buy to modify??

No doubt that it has to be a Nissan Skyline or a Toyota Supra. Tune the $*** outta these cars to do the 1/4mile in 8seconds or less

If its Indian cars, the Skoda RS or the Accord V6 or a more simpler Honda City VTEC

1). Honda Vtec
2). Skoda RS
3). Swift

Budget is limitted indian versions.

how about TATA Sierra, one of my favourite

Tejas@perioimpl · 5th November 2008, 08:13

To modify:
Old Honda City,
Mitsubishi Lancer
Maruti Gypsy

If its a indian car then definitely esteem and otherwise a good option would be a miata or supra.

ac 427 · 5th November 2008, 10:41

no two ways about this one

- OHC
- Mitsubhishi Lancer

Also
- Chevrolet UVA : it has a good body, but absolutely hopless styling, one can really turn this car around

narayan · 5th November 2008, 10:45

I am going to think differently here ! how about an OPTRA ? in line with the WTCC car ? is that feasible in India ?

abhiram7912 · 5th November 2008, 10:46

if it has to be in india i would choose OHC VTEC or Lancer.

In USA or Europe, i would probably get a e39 m5 and transplant a v10 from present m5.
you may ask why, because e39 5 series in my opinion is the last of the best looking bmw's.

mav2000 · 5th November 2008, 11:19

Well I already have the car I want to Modify and that a cedia. Now I have to wait till I can afford a new car and then start work on thsi one. SO my guess is around another year or so.

Blur · 5th November 2008, 14:53

OHC Vtec

Lancer

Swift

Maruti 800 (SS80, Edmund's ride)

'Dukkar' Fiat

If only I had the moolah to mod even one of them...

car'zy · 5th November 2008, 14:55

Defintiely the First Generation Vtec followed by the the Handsome Lancer.

nithz · 5th November 2008, 15:16

i would go with skoda rallye sport with 225 tyres held with dark grey mettalic kinda alloys ,NOS ,free flow,k&n with jet black paint work, smoked tail lamp,fully tinted including the wind screen .
