what are you doin hanging around the airport?? planning a heist?? lol...if so i want in...lol :):)

Hehe, heist? Me? :)

I drive an airport shuttle :)

Hmmm. Gotta say i'm not impressed with such a pissy attempt from the USA. They never even had time to prepare power figures for the release date!

The release of the R35 GT-R really got everyone in a pickle. GT-R ftw!

That grey R8 is one of mine too!

BTW - Shaun & Sunshine - speak to Brad about the 360 CS. You NEED to go in this.

Done ;)

Btw the GT3 is on my shopping list for 2008 now :D

If you want to see supercars go to Sydney Airport.

The best are in Terminal 3 (Qantas) valet parking.

Porsche 911's, GT2s & GT3s, BMW M5's & M6's, Aston Martins DB9's & Vantages, Ferrari 599's, Audi RS4s.

And i've seen an R33 GT-R V-Spec too boys :happy:

Business execs going interstate for day trips/meetings etc

spotted someone flogging an F430 along Victoria Rd in Drummoyne just now

they sound shithouse

the flat-plane crank design of the V8 just makes noise, but no sweet tune :( oh well- at least they go

Spotted a whole bunch of Aston Martins, Porsches and various other luxo-mobiles just then, as I went with my old man to Trivett to pick up a car. All of Trivett's service centres are grouped together in Parra/Rosehill. Didn't see Samuel (WTF33R)'s car tho...

Also saw an AMG SLK about 10 minutes later - not sure if it was an SLK55 or 63 or what, but it sounded HOT!!!

I was on holidays at the time in qld for the Indy, either that or i drove the corolla to work.

me rikey very mus

(note pccb brake set-up)

i hope its there so they can strip it and spray it orange
prolly there to get the wheels colour-coded :(

Thats the GT3 RS in the wedding car line up i posted in October. PCCB is standard on the RS! The owner of the business where that pic was taken owns that and the 2 356's in the background as well. Good friend of mine (hence why i got to drive teh cayenne) . We do the mechanical work for his shop.

i see you've read the drive review as well. Supposidly crappier than a Toyota Tarago in everyway.

No i believe you are talking about the V6 Cayenne. The 283kw V8 and 368kW Twin Turbo V8 is a different kettle of fish!

But Its still a true Porsche. Turns more heads than his old 996 GT3 RS or even the 356 Speedster.

Ive said it once and i'll say it again, I'll always stand by the safety of a Cayenne. Anything Else and id be dead. (see Pic Below)

I was sitting in the front passenger seat and walked away with only a cut to the hand from the glass.

We drove it back to the sydney from the hunter valley like that too.

i give the car 10/10 (love that electric blue), and the cutie that got out of it gets 9.5/10

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
