If u can go see if anyone has 1 and test drive 1 :) For me after i test drove 1 i fell inlove :o:o:o:o:o:o

But parts are a big pain in the bum. Im currently trying to source a windscreen and im going to have to get it from japan and with the australian dollar the way it is its going to kill me :( but thats the cost of owning a import. I have no regrets though :)

gearbox is great. travel is short and slick.

hmm...i have no problems with stalling...so no biggie for me...even if i got a pre-FL one i would've changed the flywheel anyway... :)

but yep...gearbox is great...i gave an ep3 with a short shifter a go and tbh it didn't feel any different...

This is the one ill prob get, if i can get it to 22 ill b happy, nething lower then that is a steal :p it lands late this week and ill test drive that particular one when its complienced :) have driven one b4 and i love it especially the shifter position, i dont want to do 2 much work on it so I/H/E and some sussy work should be ample, but im a sucker for QTB's :p

i contacted the dealer and he said $24k is what hes after ..

in all of my previous manual car, i can release the clutch to fiction point add a little throttle and go. with EP3, i have to rev it up before releasing the clutch to avoid stalling. i guess that's the con for quick reving high redline car.

yeah no point for quick shift, it's already quick enough.

I hope he is kidding :s yeah i didnt have much prob with the clutch and taking off... going from a 1400kg AWD turbo u need a bit of gas to get it going so its all good :)
