A lot of people have various electrical issues, but that's not really a beef I have. The most challenging part to having a nice one is how rare they are in great shape, and how fucking expensive everything is.

The most annoying thing about having a nice one is the rest of the FD community (save for a few that actually race their shit) has their heads so far up their collective asses that you're embarassed to be a part of it. Example: "Gee guys, I have a chance to trade for a C6 Z06, but I don't know if I should do it" with 25 responses that say "no way, FD is way better" or "if u do it you'll regret it" lol.

Well, every car community is gonna have their little quirky annoyances. Just don't plug into it, I guess... The electrical issues should be alarming though. If it wasn't running, I'd pretty much just treat it like a shell, toss the current engine and wiring in the trash and start fresh with this kind of finicky car...

I'd still take the car if I had the chance to get it free to cheap... provided that I actually had the resources to do something with it though. But if you're just gonna take it from being a dilapitated car on someone else's property to a dilapitated car on YOUR property, then just let it be where it is...

Hahaha so true. I remember when some people found out about the ls1 and the jz swap they wanted to kill the people that did that to the cars. I personally know of FD owners who mod there cars and can't even drive then at auto-x and have to have there buddys drive there cars for them because they hit all the cones. I do like driving the fd's and even the turbo fc's
