Buying a weekend car, down to 2 options.
Well i am getting some money and its time for me to get a weekend car. My evo will still be my daily bucket but i want something to drive on weeknds kind of a project car.
I have narrowed it down to 2 cars.
An MK4 Supra
or buy my buddies RHD registerd EK9 CTR (im getting a good deal from him)
this is the car, i will get everything BUT the motor swap.
more info here:

comming from honda's i am leaning on the CTR. But now that im getting older the Supra seems like a better option.
What would u guys do?

I dont know if I live in the wrong places all my life, but I RARELY see a nice Supra, if you have money to spend to make your car look hot, something desireable (sorry but any honda driving down the road is never desireable).
I would get the supra.

Normally this would be a no brainer but, that civic is pretty tough looking. All gutted and caged. I think it's pretty cool and I'm not big on Honda's.
I like Supra's but, they are heavy and expensive to mod enough for anyone to take notice of.
I say civic.

The motor is a sleeved b20 block with a bigger bore and 12.1 compression with a fully built b16 head (ported cams etc etc). The motor went 12.0 @ 113.5X MPH the way it sits in my hatch back that is 1920lbs.

Nice, I would just do that. How many other CTR's do you see driving around?
