Wanted: Nissan for $10K ish

[elbee111]

Gday all,

I have made this post in the wanted section as well, but my Daughter and her Fiance are looking for a Nissan after witnessing our R33 GTSt and our son's R31 in action.

Would like to know what is available Sydney to South Coast for this price range.

I don't think they want to buy mines_datsun's GTR by the way. :ak47:

Enjoy

Thanks guys,

Well after all my efforts I am disgusted, totally disgusted, as I heard today that they have bought a VP 5.0 Litre Commodore.

After all of my advice etc etc it looks as though there will be a challenge from the Commodore camp.

We really don't want to hurt them too much but......... so be it.

Thanks for the replies. This thread is dead unless someone wants to take over my original question.

Enjoy!

This happens so often. A friend of my girlfriend's asked me if I could help her find a sports car, she was thinking of getting an RX7 for around $5000. I said sure, I would track some down for her and we'd all go out on the weekend and check out the ones that were within her budget. I found a few on the Trading Post and it was all looking good, I made notes and sms'd her with some details and she seemed very enthusiastic.

That was on a Tuesday or so. On Wednesday afternoon, my girlfriend messages me and tells me that her friend just bought a twin cam Corolla. She went with her dad and bought the second one she looked at. It has issues, and she got it from a dealer (and hence paid around $1000-2000 too much).

Why do I bother?

Most people realise that 'performance cars' tend to wind up in the 'too hard' basket.

This chick was just addicted to Corollas. She's had them before and always liked them, and got hung up on getting a "twin cam" Corolla because she considers it to be a sports car. If she had said from the outright that she'd rather have a Corolla I still could have found her a better one for less money.

She even passed up on a supercharged Corolla, because it had a bung clutch. The guy was up-front about it and willing to negotiate the replacement off the price, but she didn't want a car with any problems to start with. If I was with her at the time I could have convinced her it'd still be worth getting with the stuffed clutch.

In the end the car she bought ended up being off the road for even longer for a variety of other minor problems. And it cost more than the supercharged version to begin with.
