I noticed two F50 Cimas when I passed by Autowholesale @ Shepperton Road. Unfortunately, I could not enter the showroom to see the cars (My dad told me not to go, as the sales people might think that we're buying when we're not.). One nifty feature about that car is the front blindspot camera, and both cars have them! As far as I can remember, they're 2004 cars & retail around $50k+. You can view them on their online stock here-> http://www.autowholesale.com.au/

I love the Subaru Legacy. It's like a Japanese BMW, but much better. btw, just curios, why did Subaru Australia changed the name to Liberty?

My dad saw & sat inside a Nissan Armada at a dealer in Qatar (Basically an SUV version of the Titan pick up truck.), and he told me that it was really huge! The truck is waaay larger than a Land Cruiser (And has more macho looks too!)! Nissan Australia should consider importing the Nissan Armada from the US (Both cars are built at a factory in Mississippi.) to take advantage of the free trade agreement with the US & convert them into RHD locally! Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing the Armada & Titan replacing the Patrol & the pick up truck version of it in Australia, except for one thing, only one engine option is offered, a 5.6L petrol V8. No diesels or turbo diesels in the US (But I think Nissan have got the resources & money to engineer a diesel engine from the Patrol as an option and they should do it!).

Thanks guys! haha, my main liking would be Toyotas, but I like other manufacturers too! This might make things a little difficult when I can afford to get my own car though...

Firstly, I'd like to say hello to everyone here in SAU. The Stagea AR-X thread got my attention. Some of you think that it might be weird for someone that doesn't have a Skyline to register in a Skyline community (To be honest, I'm still on my L plates!), but after lurking around for 2+ years, this looks like the best & interesting Aussie pararallel import forums that I've seen to (Same thing with gtrcanada, but that's not Aussie .). I've been staying down under, in WA since 2003 (Thanks to my parents pushing me to skip Form 3 in Malaysia at the time & start year 9 Aussie education here.), and was surprised that the common parallel imports down under here are of the high performance variety such as Nissan Skylines & Silvias, considering that you guys have this SEVS restriction thingie (Which I heard came into effect at the start of the millenium.). PS: I'm sorry if there's a newbie welcoming thread somehere around in here, but I searched.

Just wondering, are the 35-series Stageas ready for compliancing & registering in Australia now? This SEVS thingie is just making me very confused. Or is that Stagea AR-X a personal import?
