Consider driving it responsibly for a few years and not wasting money on something you will probably wind up breaking?

They're all slow as hell (as far as I remember) anyway, so I wouldn't say it's worth the effort.

Nahh, I just needed to know your general location. It's so I can keep an eye out for the newspaper article about you running your hecktick magna into a lightpole at 160km/h with 7 of your drunk fuckwit mates in the car.

You generally learn what can be done to cars, while leanring how motors work.

Have to be a steep long hill to clock up 160 in a Magna. :D

If you spend money on 17s make sure they're multi fit studs so you can use them on the next car you own.
A large exhaust isn't gonna do fuck all just makes you a piece of bait on a pig trap.

Dorifto!!! :p


And i've noticed magna's with a tired old handbrake tend to have already been thrashed, so if OP's doesn't i'm guessing he'll need to go out and get that VL before he gets off his loser permit.
