I have said this before, but if you're choice is having a sports car or having a modded max, I would chose the max.
I wish I still had my 82 RX-7, but I couldn't drive it as my only transportation like I did for 9 years. Plus, my son's car seat wouldn't fit in it anyway, so I'd be in trouble.
I noticed something this weekend, Stock cars going into turn 1 at Pocono are only making it through the turn at 150-130 or less. A completely stock SE can go through that same turn at 95 and 100 if you push it a little. How do I know? I've done it.


No max is hitting 190 on the straightaways that I know of, but then again you can't drive a stock car on the street. If I had real race tires and a suspension I wonder how much faster I could get through that turn? I wonder if I could push it to 130mph?

 

The last thing I would ever regret is having the Max. This car was the answer to all my prayers. A four door sedan that was roomy, fast, a manual, and with-in my budget. After last night, I truly appreciate this car. With my Wife driving, and a trunk load of stuff (any where from 100-150 lbs) she still wiped a Modified GTI's a$$ and that’s with the original ignition coils and a (going) Bad MAF.


97SEdriver, I picked up a set of Ksport coilovers when they had a GB. The diference is night and day as far a handling. Ride quality is not the bad either considering it's nature

 

I've ridden in a car with D2's at the FDR meet in philly, my one worry with all these various package coilover deal is where do you go to get the struts rebuilt?
I was intially considering GC's and Koni's because you can just get new Koni's. But I like the idea of included camber plates etc.. of the coilover packages. As I've stated, I drive hard (track, auto-x specifically), so replacing the struts is something I might have to do at some point in the future.
