Wow, what a view; that Maxima is hot! Haha awesome cars.

Cars looking good mate.

+1 for Liverpool-ish area ... anyone else Western Sydney? Maybe a Parra meet up might be the middle area?

Ha missile switches are actually a nice touch.

Want to come to this - Sydney side. Will look into the meet up points for a nice drive up with you guys.

Beautiful shot! Really brings out the colour.

Wow, Terry, awesome daily. Begs the question; what does he drive on the weekends? Ha ha fantastic mate!

This should be a very important consideration when making any modifications to your car. Also the fact that now most workshops/sellers will ask you what the usage of the car is in relation to the item. As mentioned with coilovers, will it be for street or track. Very different applications.

Another valid point. Reputable workshops are exactly that, they have built their reputation. While yes I am still sure they have their share of horror stories/customers. As already mentioned I would be happy to pay more for work from people I trust and perform a good job. Of course you're not the only customer, but when they treat you as such and put in the extra yards that's what puts them apart from others. And yes will also create repeat business.

Dam those are nice!!!

Very true. You should take it to someone who you can trust. If you do your homework then this will reduce the obvious issues.

I am somewhat surprised and the low excess/premium of these cars. But then again that sounds like another bonus for ownership ay!

Agree with these things. A lot of people do buy sport cars and keep them stock or compliant. Its the silly and excessive things that draw attention as mentioned.

Well said mate. I think this actually covered pretty much the experiences of owning the car.

Wow ...

More amazing pics!

Ha yeh that might be a problem ... just go with the black one ay!

This! And also the fact they will be at least honest with you rather than just letting you pay any price is a bonus as well. Would rather work with someone honest and genuinely interested rather than chasing a quick buck.

I think this topic took a little detour ay. Realistically with any car I'm sure most people have heard many a horror story from someone and hence brand those cars as such. I personally have heard about holden/hsv and on the other side even the m3's and c63's ... but I still reckon those cars are awesome!

Dam that's a nice view ay!

Ah, Terry, now those are impressive! Glad to see those again!

Black on yellow will look fantastic!

I think previous posts hit the nail on the head ... drivers car!

Great pics!

Thanks for posting that up Kristian, that actually clears up a lot of things said and thought. I guess then it really comes down to the inspection and the full detail of the damage or what was indeed replaced/repaired.
