What To Buy

[Silvia GTR]

Given your bro drives a hyudai excel and is selecting his next car based on age then I would not bother trying anymore if I were you. He sounds like one of many people that dont know shit about cars and never will.

This sack of shit is a 2008... he will love it!

I would have given up aaages ago

i'd be going the aussie built heap because a 10k r34 is likely to be nasty, where as you will find a clean vx for well under 10 leaving money for other things.

A 10k Automatic Non Turbo Sedan R34 is right on the mark.

[WESTWD]

i got my R34 AUTO N/A COUPE for 10.5k and its clean...coupe of small scratches, thats it.

Had a stateroads pre-purchase check done also, report was good.

So i would imagine you could get a very good condition r34 auto sedan for 10k

[ARTZ]

There is an R31 GTS with a t3 and supporting hardware, forgies etc for $12500. Seeing as he has just got his licence he would probably kill himself, but it sort of sounds as if you dont really like him anyway so try and talk him into it.

But really, there is one for sale, looks nice too.

Doubt that would interest him., is it for sale in here?

Brother in law just got of his P plates and has about 10k to buy a car, he seems pretty set on a lancer but i reckon there has to be something better......I may be wrong, but there just too girly to me

So throw some opinions at me, ideally post 2000 and under 100,000kms

S14 with an SR20. Good basic performance. Bit older though.

[defari]

just an idea..

bzr ae111 toyota levin? havent checked prices lately but they were around the 12mark about 3 years ago.. pretty sure they made them up to 2001... 1.6l blacktop motor, 6 speed box, unique, looks good, lots of parts and will run to 8800rpm all day everyday..

Sounds cool to me

Ive kinda come to the realization that what we consider cool, is not what he considers cool..

Another friend just sold his clean vy commy to buy a barina for fux sake he is 6 foot 4, but it seems fuel economy is more important than being able to fit in your car ,f**k if your that broke you need a better job not a smaller car

I swear real car lovers are a dying breed

I must say close to 5l/100km fuel figures would be nice just know my GTT won't even get close i'll be happy if i get around 10/100 although thats what i use to get in my n/a s13 so that is unlikely

[ARTZ]

Yeah but my point is i couldnt care what my fuel costs if i get enjoyment from the drive, it is all worth it

I speak to many people these days that want to have a cool car, but dont actually enjoy driving

If you dont enjoy driving fine, f**k off and buy ya barina and dont pretend to care about cars

Haha it's true i don't see how people can't enjoy driving but that's just how i am it's great fun especially now that i finally have boost to play with its even better can't wait for my first cruise in the new car.

Does your brother want a quickish car that doesn't use lots of fuel? If so i'd probably go with VTEC honda's. 10k for turbo cars will be getting you some old ass cars generally although might get a later model r33 or s14a if lucky although low k's would be unlikely

[mad082]

r33's are drit cheap. you can pick up a tidy one for 10k cause there is so many of them.

[bigslick]

+1 for he sounds gay. Tell him the lancer is a girls car, looks like crap and that he should go and buy one. He doesn't deserve to be in a cool car if he doesn't know anything about them.

I wouldnt mind the late model Honda CRX for under 10k

i fully agree with this, my cousin brought a r33 gts-t and then sold it after a year cos he complained it used to much petrol, and in that time he never ever played with it like only once in that year i saw him give it a bit of accelerator and once he got to 120 he stopped..

he then sold it and now he drives his gf's falcon on gas, and he brags bout how it was the best life decision he made cos he saves so much money on fuel...and then bags me for want a jap car cos theyre 'expensive and not worth it' to him

and there was this other guy down the road who traded his supra in for a astra...

dickheads these days
