i seriously wonder why plp bash FTO so much.
IMHO, FTO is not bad at all. In fact, if i can afford one, i would seriously think of it (if i still not hit family man).
As i mentioned, i do have serious thought of it once and i do search alot over the nett for its performance potential and design kit. some of the bodykit really simple and looks great on it. So the car design really do have some timeless design. i dun see it tried to replica Supra design at all. its very much diff. If u look at the wheel arch design, its totally diff onwards. FTO rear still impress me the most in fact, much more thn the front look.
if you're thinking to get a babe magnet car, i think u shld change the perspective of having a car. To me, its more on a machine that challenge individualy driving skill and pleasure on the road. Not to tackle gals. If u wan babe magnet, belive me or not, get a civic or wira, mod it to be ricers look (no offend to ricer owner). I tell u, tons of the time i see cun cun chicks in the ricers modded car. hardly i see such gal in wat bmw, supra, or rx7.
As for performance, 200ps for such a weight, i do agreed abit underpower is wanna consider as supercar. but thn if u read thru the history or the market of FTO is trying to hit, thn u will understand why its only 200ps. so hope those basher get it rite. No doubt there is hardly any performance parts available for it but BOT turbo is not no possbile. with BOT on, 300ps is realistic. which is good enaugh for street sport. there is 6A13TT waiting for you but bear in mind, its not a easy swap. trust me.
again, if the basher do some history research, FTO was rated very very high on its handling. the comment was not frm me. but those highly respect tuner and racers. At some comment, even rated its better thn Dc2 on that time. Till now, u will still hear some of it.
