My car was built in 1996. I think you're barking up the wrong tree lol

Haha. Don't worry brah I'm feeling ya I'm just saying at that price point it's different to say a 20k budget

[bluejeans]

yeah the series 4 i saw today was either 104K or 114K - cant remember exactly..

[dezz]

This buying a car shit is all too much for me

I'd hate to have 100k to spend on a car

Suck it up princess

[TiTAN]

why not buy a decent 40k car and spend the rest on something that depreciates less?

VF GTS is about 100k on road as far as I remember, pretty sure they come with AP racing brakes too?? (even though they probably say HSV on them)

My mates boss has one reckons its decent for a new stock car

if only these ones were cheaper, i'd rather want a c63 though

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Even still brah I don't think you'll get one for that they command a premium

especially 1 week before race wars

[Rekin]

So those playing at home, got the iPhone 5s.

Ported over my iphone 4 apps, photos and all in a couple of minutes.

No messing around, simple is best.

Bought a Nexus 5... Booted it up for the first time, "Would you like to install the apps which are currently installed on your Galaxy Nexus?" Yes plz. 5 minutes later everything is perfect.

Agreed, Simple is best.

N5 > IP5

That will be all. How are you liking it so far, Simon? I played with my mates the other day, quite smooth. I appreciate the slightly extra screen real estate over my N4 as well.

Tbqh it doesn't feel like I have a new phone. It's all the same as my 4s.

Barely notice the larger screen. Finger print unlock is fancy though.

C63 must be due for new model starting to look dated IMO

Aaron could confirm?

[xALmoN]

all these fancy new phones have no qwerty keyboard.

that's the only thing keeping me on blackberry, otherwise i'm quite over the shitty battery life and buggy os.

I'm loving the nexus 5, it's not too big like lots of people have been saying... Considering I've come from a 4.65" Galaxy Nexus to the 5" Nexus 5 its not a huge jump in size...

Battery life is awesome, Push Email + Facebook notification + a few 10-15min phone calls + Whatsapp and SMS all day long, and I was coming home from an 8 hour day (plus an hour of driving each way) with 75%+ battery life

It's light, but still feels really solid and well made. If you're going to get one, I'd recommend the black. I got the white and now I can't use it in the garage like I'm used to My GNex I'd pick up with grease COVERED hands and zero fks given, just give it a wipe on my shirt when I was done... It's a bit trickier to clean black off the white back cover.

I'm honestly not sure how Apple manage to make so many people splooge over the most minor incremental upgrades... People rushing out to buy a $1000+ outright phone, sure its got a slightly faster processor... but all the apps are designed to function on the lowest common denominator (which is the lowest phone running the current OS, iP4S) so you don't really feel the power boost anyway... I'd love to buy a beer for the guys in their marketing department, they sure as hell know what they're doing

Edit: Speaking of keyboards... I've just installed a new one called Fleksy, really intuitive and easy to use (after the day or so of un/learning curve). Just wish it had some swype like functions as well. but other than that, its really accurate and smooth as butter.

sounds good

my n4 isn't even a year old tbh, although given the price point i could upgrade to n5 for not much, i'll probably wait it out until the next gen of phones/nexus.

i use swype these days, good stuff. only thing i hate is the stupid lack of return key in the messaging app... but that is google's fault (i wonder if it's any different in hangouts... not sure i want to use hangouts)
