Listen to the ladies above.

Get 25GT, drive it around for 4 years. When you're off P's, buy GTR.

Man, P platers back in these days were awesome, driving around in turbos, these days are long gone.

get the bmw, and keep it till your off your p´s, you will get pulled over and you will get fined on your p´s unless you get some ultra rare exemption to drive an r34 gtr, drive around with no p´s and get double fines and 3 points each time, you would have lost your lisence within a couple of months and wont be able to drive the car anyway, take the 1 point option and you will possibly lose it for 6 months, dont forget about insurance premiums rising if youve lost your licence... not only that but when i was under 25, my insurance premium on my skyline was $4000 on a $25000 car, (never lost my licence or had an accident but they didnt care ) id love to see what it would been for an r34 gtr... but if youve got your parents funding the majority of your product, go for it, they dont care, so why should you.

this is my plan.

2 years with a bmw 330ci, simple mods: lower, exhaust, rims/tyres, etc.

after those 2 years, sell the bmw, and get a R34 GTR V Spec.

sorry but i'm not waiting 4 years to get a twin turbo. LOL. just drive without my P's.

Cannot wait until something goes wrong with the 330 and you can't afford to repair it because you bought a car outside your means. Ferrari capital, Ferrari ongoing. If it took you years of hard work to save that up then why would you buy a car that someone on your wage can't afford to upkeep. Also cannot wait until you hit an expensive car and insurance tell you to get f**ked. Then you'll be waiting 4 years for an N/A.

^thats right^

a freinds clutch plate dropped out of his semi automatic 2000 alfa romeo, 3500 grand later, he sold the car, another funny story, a mate wanted to spend the 90000 profit he made on a house to buy a porsche, the thing was raping him with even the smallest little thing costing a fortune, it wasnt till his rear badge got stolen, and he rang porsche, $600 for the badge was the last straw... sold

unless you can really afford it, stay away from anything european, but iv given up after reading everything and and its the same old story, when your that age, nothing matters, not even your parents telling you to stay in school in some cases, i think its time to learn the hard way buddy, but it all comes down to the funds, if your family has money, there will be nothing hard about it, and most importantly, nothing learnt.

but nobody else knows but you, you literally busted your ass to save 30.000 to get your car, or you worked hard on the weekends and for being such a good hard worker your getting a little help. but it seems that from what im reading, the expenses of a european car dont bother you because youll just get a little more help. but if i am wrong and you will be funding everything with a medium income, dont spend anywhere near your maximum budget, youl crucify yourself.

so ill give you my opinion one last time, i dont beleive it is a good idea to buy a 30000 bmw, but if your family can afford it. get whatever you want...

I'm interested in knowing if the death toll has dropped since implementing this law.

Pretty sure it hasn't dropped to a level the government want us to know.

But they had 'fudged' the statistics regarding crime, wouldn't surprise me if they have 'tweaking' the amount of road toll.

Summarize this ----

You come from a rich family? Buy a BMW. Yeh it will be your baby, but we all know that as soon as servicing or repairs pop up you'll get mum or dad to help out. BMW and merc are the two most expensive euro cars, followed by Audi and then Vw being somewhat reasonable.

You come from a well off family and have to take care of you're own servicing? Buy a jap car. Honda is very good I've been told. Lots of parts meaning the supply and demand is good which equals lower costs.

Let us know what you buy. Pics or it didn't happen.

Don't buy a turbod car unless you can get an exemption.

Better to have a license and a dream to drive a GTR than to have no license and a GTR you can't drive.

Out!

I live in a wealthy family, but I'm not your tyPical rick kid that brags, I never mention any of the cars my family owns, wealth, etc.

I'll most likely be going for the BMW, Parents actually want me to get the 330Ci rather then the cheaP 25GT.

Birthday in a month, so gonna start visiting a few BMW Private sellers this week :)

Bullshit, the whole reason you came on here in the first place wasn't for advice, it was to brag that you had 30k to spend on a car...evidenced by you ignoring any advice people have given you.

Man, what are you on about?

I didn't mention being able to spend 30k till mid way through the thread.

I initially wanted an 8 to 10k 25GT, but after realising how slow it is I've avoided going for it.

I've actually taken the advice from people on here and spoken to my parents about it and they'd actually prefer me getting a BMW rather then a cheap box.

And if anything I f**king envy you guys having skylines, wish I could have one now.

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
