I got my 01 in March and really like the car. Great in the wet (awd) and a real sleeper in overall performance. Well put together, leather seats, the works. Stock suspension could be firmer for entusiastic driving.
I'm considering a V6 4mo Bora and am interested in your opinion of ownership in the last six months ?
Do you still love it as much as the day you got it ?

Love my 03 v6 4mo Bora .. Great car.. problem is I only own cars for about 6 months then get bored with them so I am putting her up for sale now. Someone will get a great deal. I am only the second owner. I highly recommend these cars .. even if you have 3 kids they are still not too bad for room/
Cheers ..Bruce
03 Bora 4Motion ... luv it
I freaking love mine, which is why i am toying with copying Who and throwing big casherachi at it for a turbo.

Yes .. I was driving home the other day on a tricky road .. and was really grooving on this little car .. feeling guilty cause I m thinking of selling it. I guess I could find a cheap beat up old 4x4 and keep the Bora. That would mean I would need to start on some Bora mod though .. hmmm where to start?

I miss my bora a lot, they are a fantastic car.
Only reason I got rid of mine was desire to go fast!

at double the cost, and if something breaks (which is inevitable), not cheap to fix
Plus I can go sideways
For a street car, they are fantastic though.

hey guys, Ive been reading this thread and it seems like you all know a **** load about the Bora.
I just bought a 2004 4 motion Bora as well. Bog stock accept for a BMC filter/induction and Haldex controller change. Apparently it pushes more through the back wheels. These were both on the cars when I got it. Everything else is dead stock.
My question. If I get a custom flash will it work with the standard exhaust or am I wasting my time? Howe much would it cost and what do they do?
BTW, I love the car. Feels like its worth 10x more than what I bought it for. I agree standard suspension is to soft.
