Roughly 5 years on, I still have the Alfa 33 I bought after my Cordia.
http://www.axys.co.nz/ben/alfa33/lowering/rr2_sm.jpg
Some guy on the oldschool.co.nz forum I mainly frequent just bought a grandpa special Cordia GSR, but I fear this may be one of the last young guys and the last Cordia GSRs. They're coming to an end as fast as the Alfa 33. =(

Yeah I still miss them, but I moved onto something the was easyer to drive to work a Alfa 147. Its a nice small coupe and just goes...... I glad I had a cordia or else I would have ended up driving tanks like como's,falc's,4x4's etc.

Wow, an Alfa described as a car that 'just goes', without emphasis on the 'just'! :lol:
Make sure you check the oil level and change the timing belt and tensioners on time, and if you bought Sillyspeed, you should have stuck with your Cordia. ;)

My life after my cordia goes, CC GSR lancer, VR4, EVO VII and now a shitty old mazda 323. But I am building a LB Lancer race car with a VR4 engine.

I still am always on the lookout for a cheap vr4 powered cordia, I really did enjoy the cordia torque steer :)

Yep life goes on after the Cordia fun ends... But I still miss mine from time to time!

Got a Peugeot 306 (turbo diesel) now but it's stock standard.
