I would really appreciate if I could win and have my dream car back on my driveway because it looks very empty right now without it, and I would also love to share the passion for this car with Chloe and get her to listen to the legendary VTEC!!!

I’m 16 years old and just got a license. I’ve been excitedly looking at used cars for years and I can’t find a decent affordable option for me as I love a little bit of extra juice but I have a limiting budget. I think no car hits a sweeter spot for me than this one. Perfect for going around town to school and sports. My parents are firm believers in me paying for what I own and therefore this could help me get driving a little sooner and enjoy doing it like I’ve looked forward to for so long. I enjoy your guys’ channel and it’d be a blessing to get picked. Thanks guys.

The EP3 to me is what the Corrado VR6 was to my dad, a proper attainable dream car with bags of character. I think I should be considered for winning the EP3 because it's easily one of my favourite cars of all time, and the silver Celica I bought a while back after watching your Awesome Affordable Cars episode is an MOT away from death by rust (which I'm sure Alex is familiar with). I'm also local to you guys, which should make for easy pick-up. Big fan of the channel, thanks to Autoglym, and good luck to everyone! Deleted my old comment as my imgur links to photos of the rust seemed to get the comment flagged as spam and hidden. Hoping this new comment will still be counted an an entry.

Firstly I'm 18 years old, just finishing my college course and getting ready to go into university. I'm currently undertaking my driving test and looking for a powerful, fun-filled and cool car to hang out in during the summer and flex during my first year at university. After watching this video is am certain that this is the perfect car!! During this year i have also been searching for a job so that i can buy a decent cheap car but we all know how hard it is to find a job. But thats not the only thing i need to be worrying about because we all know how expensive studying in university can be so i will also need to start saving for that nightmare. Your videos are amazing to watch and inspires me to work hard so that i can buy whichever car i like from your reviews. I would really appreciate if the prize car was gifted to me. Thank you.

My dad used to own a EP3 type R when I was a kid and it is well and truly the car that started my love for all things japenese with 4 wheels! He had to sell the car and both him and I were heartbroken! I think it would be such a cool experience to surprise him with a new (to him) EP3 once again!

Ahh man this car looks mint! I’d love to have this with my mx5 that’s just failed it’s mot down to rust no horn (someone changed the steering wheel and didn’t replace the button 😳🙄) and the engine seems to be just getting to old stalling on me all the time... time for a change an this looks like it would be a bloody good upgrade from a mx5! Thanks for the chance to win!!!

Recently my Grandad passed away quite suddenly. He was a big part of mine and my Dads life’s, going racing with him on the weekends or to car shows was always something to look forward. After spending a weekend camping watching Rallycross at Lydden Hill, we had said about wanting to go to an abroad track such as the Nurburgring, Spa or Monaco to watch a big racing event. So if I won this car I’d like to surprise my Dad by taking him to a track day at one of these tracks or watching a big race meeting there in memory of my Grandad. We would be sharing the drive there in a fantastic car and visiting different tracks and places along the way, making a little holiday out of it in the summer. In addition, me and my Dad are both really into cars but both drive boring cars, but if we won the civic I would make sure it was well taken care of and not left to rot afterwards. So please Car Throttle, pick meeeeee :)))))

I've recently set myself up as a mobile detailer, it's been a dream of mine, finally got everything together to do it. Having an ep3 to rejuvenate, hit v tec in, and take to car meets would be a further dream of mine. I'll throw my flyers from the window of the mirror looking EP3, now that would be mad.

The EP3, specifically this spec, is my generation’s Golf Gti MK1. It has been near the top of my “must own” list since I first saw one back in 2003 when I got my driving licence. I would truly cherish this classic.

Do want, looked at buying one as a first car but the insurance was madness. I'm a few years "more mature" and "safer" now, so I'd love to BRAAAAAAP this around. I'll also make myself available to collect it at the earliest opportunity, if that makes me a better candidate? 😅

I currently daily my own high mileage hero Fabia, about 20k miles a year currently but I'd love a mad hot hatch as a project car and take on track days. I've taken my Fabia to Oulton Park and Three Sisters, it isn't exactly a trackday hero so something to drive spiritedly along Snake Pass, Woodhead Pass or on a track would be mad

Ok so im in the US, and we never get awesome cars like this here. I have US verision of the EP3, the SI. I would gladly pay the shipping cost to bring it to the US! Its awesome that you guys are just giving away amazing cars like this to viewers! No one else i've seen is going this kind of thing for their community! I know you said no shipping BUT i will gladly pay it if you make the exception! Just got a quote for $850 to ship it me =P I will make all the arrangements! You could also make a trip to Florida and compare the US EP3 si to the EU EP3 type R for the show!

I would love to trip the car back to Hungary, which would be my first huge motoring experience. It would build a huge bond to the car, and I would drive it daily, while taking good care of it. It would really be the perfect first sporty vehicle for a 22 year old guy, with a great interest in cars, but not in the position to get into the car world. I hope that's a good reason for me to win it. Love the project cars, keep up the good work!
