spotted a light bluish soarer or grey soarer with a red 300zx and black 200sx entering the myaree shopping center at around 9.30pm today

I was there at around that time, but not with anyone else though. Getting good old bubble tea!

Just came down orrong road, bulk cops blocking the road off, so went and had a bit of a closer look.

Front bumper sitting at the lights, then about 100-200 metres down a car sitting on its roof, parts scattered all over the road, yellow caution tape...

Been awfully quiet in here for a while... Happy New Year everyone!!

My 2009 plan for my car is to hopefully get a big single on this thing by the end of the year with supporting mods!

Nah, I think the JZZ-31 is p plate perfect in terms of reliability, economy, affordability etc. For your budget assuming it is not more than like 13k you will get a TT with problems or a immaculate JZZ31.

As a younger person like yourself I also think TT are too fast for someone with limited experience driving while a JZZ31 is perfect for learning with and then once you've got a few years experience get yourself a immac vvti turbo.

Turbo or nothing at all

Depending on how much cash i have at the time, will depend on what i get.

Looking at FC rx7's at the moment, don't think ill be getting a manual TT soarer...might be just a "tad" out of my price range haha.

I wouldn't say TT's would have problems for 13k, theres alot of nice examples for around the 10 area. brother brought his for less and has only recently started having problems.

josh "As a younger person like yourself I also think TT are too fast for someone with limited experience driving while a JZZ31 is perfect for learning with and then once you've got a few years experience get yourself a immac vvti turbo."

No offence dude but i think that's completely wrong. just because he's young doesn't mean he doesn't have experience. he could be like me and have been in cars all his life due to living on a farm or because his family did a lot of camping or something like that. i've been driving since i was bout 8 and i've only just got off my p plates, and i've been riding a 600cc motorbike (that went 128km/h in first gear) that would absolutely blow most of the soarers people own on here out this world so you can't really make a statement like that just because he's young.

did you get your license when it was one year on p's and the l system was so easy to get through it wasn't funny? if you did you could have jumped into a car with a hell of a lot less experience. not saying you did, just saying you could have. at least now they're making kids actually sit in a ••••••• car and drive themselves so that they can learn how to control the bloody things.

another thing is you can get in nearly any car and speed and be stupid. my best mates first car was an 88 corolla. absolute beast! right? HELL NO! but he got that thing up to over 180 km/h. so it doesn't matter what car you learn in because you can irresponsible in pretty much any. its up to the individual to make their own choices and be responsible and do the right thing if they buy a high powered car

Exactly right. Those kids that died from Corpus Christi I think it was..? Well they were in a beamer...320i..not turbo or v8, just inline 4 cyliders, 125kw.
They crashed not because the car was too powerful, but because they were driving irresponsibly. True, they may not have crashed if they were more experienced, but that risk always comes with reckless driving..

Ultimately it comes down to how you choose to drive the car.

I think what josh is trying to say is, the statistics show that p plate drivers or young drivers in GENERAL have a much much higher death rate behind the wheel, especially when driving high powered vehicles.

This is why some insurance companies will not insure drivers below 21 years of age, and also why the government is trying to ban young drivers purchasing high powered cars.

I dont think it was personal, he was just making a general comment.

We can all enjoy these cars, just be responsible and choose the right places e.g The track

HAHAHA
My first car when I was 17 was a HX Limited Monaro - that was massiiiive n got me laiiiid - but the only car I've crashed was a little 1.6 KE Laser, why you ask? Because I was driving like a tool and had a little of this;

Fact of the matter - you got a brain, learn to use it, most 30 yr olds i know supremely fail in this area.

if the governments driver learning scheme wasn't such a joke and it actually taught kids how to drive like over east, there wouldn't be a problem with insurance and with younger drivers in high powered cars.

i know it wasn't personal but people have told me the same thing since i got my license but i've been driving for years longer than a lot of people who are 22-26ish. and the reason i can't drive now is because of an 'older', supposably more experienced driver, in a busted arse old car (not a turbo or v8), tried to make me and my bike an attraction in the pavement coz he couldn't be bothered indicating or looking in his blind spot
