Should I get an SVO?

Ever consider a merkur xr4ti? Kinda wanted one when I was 18

I had but I can't get over some of the styling. The ass end is the deal breaker. The front looks gorgeous and enticing, but the pinched ass is a deal breaker. So many wrong curves in the car.
Also, I've had a terminator swapped sn95 cobra. I kinda agree with the whole v8's in mustangs but going outside of the box is kinda my thing. V8's aren't all they're cracked up to be.

How are the handling characteristics of the SVO? I've had previous experience with live axles taking shits during hard turns but I know of an IRS swap from a new edge cobra. However, I don't know if that would be beneficiary because the chassis was not designed for that IRS system and may be worse off than just throwing a griggs suspension setup for the rear end.

Well that I can sympathize with :)

She is more evil looking than ugly.

Do you even own an e30? Checked the members ride and project sections for your username. Seems you don't... but if you do, why buy another older car that will need money?

Just because I haven't whored out my e30 doesn't mean I don't have one. Yeah I do have one by the way. I got on here because at first I needed info on getting my car up to a decent dd running status. But as time went by I started to appreciate and like the community. My e30 is a daily and nothing else. I'm not going to throw a shit ton of money in it like alot of guys on here do. If I'm gonna have a weekend car or project car, then it's gonna be something unique, not something every 19-23yo has now.

I can see by the taste in wheels it will be 100% "unique". Are those the project wheels in the background? Messing ;)

But that is cool, I just could not find anything of your car on here is all. I use a e30 as a daily also, just stock with Bilstein sports and H&R race springs. Great MPG and easy to fix, but why have two cars that need more hands on work than let's say a newer Honda etc? IMO a 90s Honda Civic is one of the best MPG and cheap replacement parts cars out there. Bullet proof daily.

The Ford in your first post is not bad looking. The other ones are nasty.

That's the reason why I got my e30 in the first place. It's running really strong right now and I think I can throw a project car in the midst. The wheels came with it though. Not my choice.
