Damn bro you've had a bit of everything haven't you haha. love the 89 Porsche! what did it set you back?

yeah I like to think so. I am probably a bit older than a few others on the forum though - I bought the Porsche as a gift to myself for my 40th.

The 928's are cheap to buy. Considering that they were around the $150-200k mark when they were new depending on options, they are an absolute bargain at $15-20k now. Earlier models (which are still very nice) can be had for around $10k. The catch of course is VERY expensive repairs and servicing, but if you can do a bit yourself you'll save a heap.

It's not the fastest car I have owned (R36 takes that honour) or the best handling (RX8) but I still get a thrill every time I see it.

At the end of the day I love cars - all cars really. And a mention must be made of the skyline, which has to be the best daily driver I have had.

3rd (Current now off P's) - 2009 Nissan 370Z

Lulz.

I'm jealous! you've been JDM loyal your whole life! Aha i'm the same, turn 21 tomorrow and driven shit boxes my whole time during my p's until now.

Haha, agreed, so sick of driving in for a repair at $1000 a pop on the ADM rare exa and 180 jdm moneypit. I know aftermarket stuff on the 180 is cheap.. But I have no idea how to fix one. The 350GT is sensible, but so much fun. Don't get any attention from the wrong people either ;)

But, yes I'm so lucky. My family is like a freaking Nissan dealer. We currently have 7 Nissans to 6 people.

#1 1978 Series 1 RX7 (extend port goodness)

#4 2002 BMW 530d (Company car #2 while in Germany, 230kph on the autobahn with a full load in the back ah yeah.....)

#5 1996 Mitsubishi Magna TS (Back in Aus....sniff....I want my bimmer back!!!)

#6 2004 BA Falcon XT (it had four wheels and was blue....yay)

#7 2000 Series 8 RX7 (Happy Days at last! V8 bashing in Kalgoorlie, all day long)

#8 2008 Skyline 370GT SP Coupe (I must be getting old)

Dream car: Ferrari F40......my dad bought me a model of one when I was 7 years old and they had just been released. From that day on I knew that I must have one........
