Early today my 18 month old son tried taking my Skyline for a drive...he had a couple of problems, such as being too short to reach the peddles, can't see over the dash and he didn't have the keys, although very funny to watch and...

Don't worry; when he grows 4" and knows what the keys are for, he still won't need to be able to look over the dash, but...

your car will be his 1st car - gulp

Does that answer the Q, "What will he be left with as a learner's car?"

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

OP isn't about what my son will be cruising around in, I think perhaps I wasn't to direct in my post. (reading back over it, over half was rambling, that I'm going to take out cos I can see how it'd be confusing)

OP is about where all the nice cars are disappearing to??? It's just my son that got me thinking about it.

Why are they getting rid of decent cars and replacing them with hybrid cars that have no power or cars that are just totally ugly...what ever happened to the days of classy cars with sexy curves, and decent amounts of power, cars that had engineering genius....why the limited choices? I know that manufacturing companies only go with what the consumer say they want but I am so sick of seeing good cars being turned into SUV's or Hybrids, of worse still...BOTH!

How can they call this a Skyline of any type???

And yes I am aware they call it a Skyline/Infinity crossover

ive read thru this thread twice now and resisted answering because i already cop enuff warning... but seriously wtf r u talking about. there are no nice new sports cars around????

lets just think for 1 sec ok

r35 gtr

370z

v37 skylines

bmw coupes

mercedes convertibles

audi a5

volkswagon golf gti's etc

911 porcshes

all of these cars have "classy cars with sexy curves, and decent amounts of power, cars that had engineering genius" (ur quote)

f**k a maloo ute has sexy curves and 6.3 litre engine in it....is that not decent enuff power.

hybrid cars are the way of the future because fossil fuels will run out eventually and im sure ur not going to walk every where or go back to the olden days of horses and carriages now are we

By the time your son gets his license the R35 GTR would have dropped so much in price every college kids would be hooning around in one.

thats some rich p platers. reminds me of the other night that was extremely hot down st kilda beach seeing red p platers in 100k BMW's with the tops down.. not happy

[g35me]

But in 15 years from now those cars will be worth virtually nothing.

Hmm i thought the actual topic is what cars are left these days. The story about her son with the current car just made her think of the cars available now. Otherwise there's really absolutely no point in this thread. I think everyone just got confused the story and what she was actually asking.

But yeah i agree they will be worth peanuts. Hard to imagine that though =[

I always worried about my first car and the safety of it. I actually thought we had a interesting topic happening with:

what was your first car. Although i am sure there has been a post for it somewhere!

1989 Rover

[180Roman]

oh what i wouldn't give to own either of those

the thing is none of the R31-34 generation will ever become a classic as much as the KPGC10 and KPGC110

give the 32R another 20years

[Sarumatix]

32 will be a classic.. absolutely no doubt about it.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]
