Advice On First Import

[Jonno34]

The few cars ive driven with any form of tiptronic transmission ive been very dissapointed in, but they were mostly things like colt vrx's and stuff lol

i still think a proper manual is far superior

but its a decent compromise i guess.

Ill send the guy a fb msg n let u no

Jonno, you'll never buy another car lol.

Oh and tiptronic is for teh wimenz.

Yeah ive driven a v8 ford ute with a tiptronic thing too and it was really slow to react. I would much rather manual but if i cant find one i'll still be happy to settle with a tiptronic if its any good.

I'd like to see and hopefully test a tiptronic before judging it too much. And is it the same system as in the stageas?

I have now learnt not all auto 34's are tipronic, but i think most of them are. Still on the lookout and nothing is really shouting out at me yet. I think im gonna have to make do with a tiptronic instead of manual, which has pro's and con's like everything, but im not too phased by that really. I'd just be stoked to own one at all

Start out with a cheap s13 Silvia or 180sx (sr20 of course) ..you can develop your car and skills from there and upgrade when budget and driving skills improve
