Motor Vehicle Suggestions

Get a bike man... that ticks all your boxes

Its fast, cheap, $20 petrol a week (if that), running costs are a fraction of a car and you can park the damn thing anywhere. Not to mention a lot of chicks get a tiny little wet when they hear the word 'motorbike'. Your need for a $8000 weapon of a ride problems are solved

$2,800??!?!

AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[dezz]

saw a hot 2001 R1 1000cc for like $9k....

[nice 28]

FC rx7 takes my vote

Or an s13

Don't forget though if all you have is 8k, I wouldn't be looking to spend all of my money on the car itself.

Keep in mind you have to pay other extras such as insurance rego etc.

Good luck with your search

Daweoo Matiz, teh chicks dig em

we ill trow in my two cents.

if you still wont a skyline why not look at a r31 gts-x its a 2 door coupe with rb20det and manual. they average areound the 8k mark and are userly in resenerble condition (plus they raced at bathurest). look on the for sale cars section in r31skylineclub to see if thats what you wont.

it would be my pic if i wonted a 2dr or i would get another 4 door r31 for 2k and spend 6k on it. as you can userly get one that is man and with a turbo for apx3-4k.

R31Nismoid -

i've seen decent r32's go for that much, r33's even.

most if not all r32s you see for sale are overpriced but you do get 1 every now and then thats well priced. i wouldn't be wasting my time looking around for such cars if i knew i couldn't get one with that budget....

its low i know but i'm sure something will turn up for the right price, thing is i'm in a hurry.

thanks.

i will never ever pay 12k for an r32.

not a fan of those lol. try n keep it japanese

If you want a turbo/manual R32, and you want to spend $8,000 then you are making a mistake. I am sure you might be able to find such a car but it will be a POS and even if you spend a few grand fixing it its still not as good as most others!

I can't stand ppl that say what car they want, then say that like all of them are "over priced" and that they will never pay that kind of money. You need to consider that maybe you are wrong and the market is right. The market is subject to all the regular factors of any goods market. Some people are prepared to pay $12,000 for a good r32.

If you are not then get something else but I know that any $8k turbo manual sports car is going to be very old and/or a POS... endless headaches.... but that is your mistake to make!

S13 silvia or 180. average condition for 8k. 8k for R32 won't be very good unless you're really lucky. My tip is go aussie. Get a really nice XR6 or XR8 or SS of the same age.

What sort of car would you prefer. Good car in crap condition or reasonable car in good condition. Unless I was gunna thrash and trash it, I'd go the reasonable car in good nick.

Look at laurels and cefiros if there are any round. They can go for pretty cheap too.

I sold a really good nick R31 GTS-X coupe about 18 months ago for $9300. That was a good price back then and a great car. In some ways I wish I still had it. They are probably the best way into the RB engine range. Very rare too!

im guessing

wont = want

userly = usually

resernerble = reasonable

am i right?

well sorry to break it to u bud...but if u think u can get a clean example of an r32gts-t for 8k, u are dreaming...

i think the problem here is...........u dont have enuf money atm, u need to keep saving...

R32's are cheaper than ever atm, in general they are by no means overpriced.

[dezz]

same goes for people thinking they'll get a decent 33 for $12k....Just because you saw some for that price...doesn't mean thats what decent ones are worth.

Yeah true, People like that I always want them to buy a real cheap example so they can find out just how wrong they were. They end up costimg themselves more than they could have ever imagined..... serves them right!

[Russman]

I like the bike idea though.... GSXR.... yeah baby. Blow an 8 grand skyline into the weeds!

Ye, i can only imagine the condition the 13k R33 was... it was probably a half cut

[R-SPEC]

bikes are out of teh question.

and NO i'm not saying r32's are overpriced just because they're too expensive for me.

like i said i've seen and know of decent examples of r32s and r33s that have gone for that much.

My thoughts and few examples:

thanks mate will ring up about this rs.

your looking for a cheap turbo car... and your worried about petrol.... ? sounds to me like you should be looking at something a little more economical

i've owned turbo 4's and have an idea of what kind of petrol turbo 6's drink. nowhere near as bad as rotors....

[RicKDoG]
