5-10 years time? Hrmmm... I'll probably be driving a run around car of some sort with this R33 as a dedicated drift/track weapon.

[Modena]

With petrol being around 3 bucks a litre within th e next 5-10 years, Ill be driving a nice Corolla and probably be too busy paying off my first property as well as hopefully investing in the second investment property... once that is going well, I wouldn't mind driving an R35 GTR on weekends, that is only if I can pay cash for it though.

I had my last car (VL Commodore) for 11 years and I hope to have my R33 for a long time. What will your ride be in 5 - 10 years time ? Will it be your current Skyline with heavy mods and running 11s or will you upgrade to a R34 GTR (if you dont already have one) or will it be something completely different ?

[madbung]

[Liz]

in 5 years I hope to be over this car thing

[evil_weevil]

lol @ lezzeh!

no waaaii!!

5 - 10 years for me.....

something good on fuel

maybe a clubman/amaroo/kit car type with a decent engine and a family car like an SS or XR6T

[PM-R33]

If i havn't killed myself in my car by the end of uni *knock on wood*, a second hand black H3 for cruising with mates in and keep the 33 for a fun weekend car. That's the plan anyway Then a R35 one day

[Garret_Volden]

r35 daily driver,and current r32 drift whore!

[Proximity Motorsport]

s14 s2...not that it is a big feat to own but i love them, sure i could buy one now but id rather not depart with the r32 at this stage. Also a stagea for daily

[eddieneedsboost]

Would like to still have the supra but with a fully built 3.4L Stroker, 9000rpm revlimit and a HKS T51R KAI

700rwhp with a powerband of 4500 - 9000 can't be that bad lol

[mark_sudakov]

rx7 series 8, that is all

[1C3B3RG]

I got a R33 gtst. I want to own a GTR before petrol gets to $3 a litre. Besides Gtr's are coming down in price quickly. I reckon in 2 years i'll buy a R33 GTR, stock and keep it that way. Maybe R34 GTR if i get lucky.

[Modena]

In 10 years time 80% of all SAU will be driving Echos, Corollas and Prius'... the rest will have enough money to afford petrol to drive their R35 GTR.

Wake up people, the age of car is finished. Petrol will be around 2 bucks at the start of next year. Vpower and BP Ultimate is around $1.70 already.

Its only the matter of time before the government will start charging extra for those driving turbo and v8 cars and 4 wheel drives.

In UK they already pay three times more to keep fuel guzzling cars.

That's why i want to get my GTR in no more than 2 years. So i can still afford to fang it around a bit. I realize the future of petrol looks bleak. Get what you can while you can.

[gts-4 dreamer]

newer open wheeler + bigger house + billions of dollars due to my success @ selling my website to google / microsoft / any big $$$ conglomerate who want to purchase my idea and driving / jet setting / doing what ever the f... I like... hmmm.. then of coarse after all this... there is only 1 pursuit left..... world domination!!!

binky...binky and the brain brain brain.

Ah well, let the everyone dream Its a sad reality when you put it like that. I want my big block V8, but to be able to afford to do one properly it would be a good 5-10 years down the track based on the way the world is now, nevermind when petrol's $3/litre and you have to spend god knows how much just for your first house!

Lets pray they find a stash somewhere

[Marco-R34GTT]

Speaking of a stash..

Spoke to a mates dad who works in the offshore oil industry..

Apparently a conglomerate of firms will be drilling into an oil reserve near the Falkland Islands, cautious estimates are around 60 billion barrels of oil... Nice change to the deserts of Saudi, Iraq and Iran, or even Venezuela for that matter... He also reckons that oil could be back to 90 odd dollars a barrel if the Falklands supply starts hitting refineries by Jan 09....

It won't change a thing... sadly... but with all the pollution from our cars, I am glad that very soon all petrol cars will be history... bring on the electrics.
