danieltangtc Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 (edited) Hi guys, As a reward for graduating as a dentist in 2007, my father has offered to buy me a new car under 70K. The catch is that it has to be a brand new car from the showroom. My dad is sick of seeing me mess around with second hand imports, including my current r34 Gtt. I really like the new evo X, but i think its abit out of my budget and I don't want to wait too long to get my new car. The BMW 323i coupe is nice as well, but its a bit out of my budget too. I don't mind a newer model wrx sti (2008 model) but I think its ugly. An r34 gtr would be sweet, but then, it has to be new. Alternatively, if you can suggest any other cars I have not thought of, please feel free to list them. Please place your vote in the poll above. Thanks heaps fella Dr Dan Edited November 11, 2007 by danieltangtc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193131-which-car-to-get-hard-to-decide/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil_weevil Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Lucky you. doesnt matter what you get then?! If you were buying it from own money, I'd say best bang for buck either lancer or sti with outlook to modify however as its being bought, any car is good.

SECURITY Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 dont buy a bmw unless its an m3. you wont look back. my cousin was dreaming about a bmw for 4yrs straight. he used to bug me about dreams of driving a 325 convertible and pulling the chicks etc etc. he sold it after 2 months of buying it and bought a rex. they are true blue pieces of shit. evo 9 is the pick of the lot. or sell your car and make the budget 90k and get the new gtr when it lands Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193131-which-car-to-get-hard-to-decide/#findComment-3466979 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS4WD Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I think the EVO is the best trade off.. I has the benefits of the AWD and tubro (with better performance than the A4).. More attractive than the STi Better performance and appeal than the BM Tunning potentials are far better than the BM and rx8 Other options include: Type R Liberty 3L NA or Turbo (NA is by far a better option, more power and responce than the GT) Forester GT 350Z S2000 Alfa Brera - SEX! ..just thought Id complicate things a little bit more..

adam-__- Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I'd probably pick the evo if I ever had the chance. How much is a brand new A4 quattro? If it's under 70k I'd probably get that. More class. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193131-which-car-to-get-hard-to-decide/#findComment-3467091 Share on other sites More sharing options...
danieltangtc Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 The alfa brera looks hot! Never knew about it till today... Just curious, I was looking at some pictures. The evo 7, 8 and 9 look almost exactly the same, body wise!

a20089 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Sorry had to post this, I can see your problem and would recommend the 350z and pay any difference you can’t negotiate. However from my GF "you poor little rich kid, cry me a river and tell someone that cares" "Let me guess daddy paid your hex bills too?" I don't think she saw your problem.

I don't think she saw your problem. LOL...YES...daddy paid my uni bills too LOL...jk Yeah...350z will be my no.1 choice handsdown if it wasn't a 2 seater. Was just on the mazda website and the rx8 seems to have quite a lot more features than evo 9...eg. leather seats, 9 speaker Bose sound system, Xenon headlights. But evo definitely more torque and power. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193131-which-car-to-get-hard-to-decide/#findComment-3467223 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omurru Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 there's a topgear episode where they have a mercialago I think being driven by a racing driver and clarkson is running after him in an evo and the lambo can't get away from it...good little cars. But then again, keep the 34, mod the shit out of it and get something nice a luxury to drive round as a daily Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193131-which-car-to-get-hard-to-decide/#findComment-3467318 Share on other sites More sharing options...
