Are FC good cars?
I was thinking of getting one.
The AE86 has too much stuff to fix up and would end up costing more then a FC.

FC? Cheap? Hahah..that's what you think... they'll probably cost you more cause how good are you at working on Rotaries? If you don't know what you're doing, you'll end up with a fried motor. That and the car is just about as old as the AE86, so you'll have the same problems. You buy an 80's Corolla, RX7, Cadillac, Mercedes Benz, Dodge Arries, Honda Civic...it's all the same, you'll have maintenance on your hands before you can even think of going fast.

Sure, they might cost more then an AE86. But i'm sure the body is in better condition then most AE86s. If i need to spend money on the car, it won't be on body or interior. So i have one less problem to solve and don't need new paint jobs or rust remove. For the cost of a mint body AE86, you can get a FC mint body. So i don't think it's such a bad idea.

There is a RWD Skyline that is good for drifting. Also I heard RX7 was good too.

Haha! I knew I was right! There are newer Skylines that are not 4x4 and have RWD instead.

This is a Skyline enthusiest page so the info here is very reliable.
