I am considering my next upgrade to be either a V36 or a Skyline Crossover.

I know there is not a lot of love for the Crossover in the Skyline community, but I think they are freaking awesome and tick a lot of boxes for me - especially since I am well over my boy racer stage (I have owned a 200rwkw S15 and a 230rwkw R34) and the extra boot space suits me (for camping trips etc), high clearance, 4wd (I would buy the FOUR version), insane amount of cameras, self-healing paint, following cruise control/lane adherence alarms, etc etc. A black one with 20" rims, exhaust, ECU edit and on bags would make for a decent 260kw (flywheel) package with a bit of stance and a LOT of luxury ..... I know there will be a lot of haters out there, but each to their own imho.

can you import those crossovers??

i hired one of those (Infiniti Fx45) when i was i was in the USA in 2009 - we drove it from LA to Vegas - 5 blokes with full luggage - and at one stage, on a closed section of road, we had it up to 140mph and it wanted to keep going. Very cool cars!

Well who wouldn't want an R35 GT-R..

But i am on the similar track of Trav, i would love an Audi A4 sedan with big wheels and a bit of stance. They look sexy as hell in black done up.

EDIT: i forgot, maybe even consider a G6E Turbo in silver. Very good looking cars and have all the luxury accessories that i like. I have a mate with one lowered a bit on 20's and it looks tidy as f*ck, done a tune and a few engine mods pushing 350-ish kw

Just get a PM35 and be done with it Andrew! You know you want to!

Yeah mate - and you can bring them in from the UK so they have English buttons/controls too!

Only had the v36 for about 18 months and am still in love with it so the gf will be getting the next chance to upgrade. From an 08 fiesta almost anything is a move up but she likes the 86. After that it will be my turn again and, depending on what comes out over the next 2-3 years, an R35 or a newer M3, will be on the radar. I love that BMW have gone back to a straight six and having driven a Z4 with the .same twin turbo six, I can imagine the evil things that BMW will be able to do to it.

I get very sentimental with my vehicles. The Maxima was around for 17 years and was only upgraded to a V36 because of an unfortunate collision which made it economically unfeasible. Yes, even sentimentality has its price sometimes.

As such, I hope to hang on to my V36 for an eternity too.

Besides, I'm putting a lot of work into upgrading the audio system. I've been doing a lot of metalwork to make the amp stack that will sit in place of where a Bose amp would normally be found in the boot floor's left corner and there's more engineering to do along the way.
