Hi all,

Have spent a few years in brisbane now and love the place. However there have been a few i know who could not wait to leave..

My question is "Do you think the river city is getting better or worse"

Personally i think that all these bridges and walkways over the river look terrible but overall the city is getting better!!

Post your thoughts..

nah its alright, im from perth originally and miss it, but brissy is nice IMO, the import scene was better a few months ago though =(

worse worse worse worse worse worse worse!!!

used to be a great city 10-15 years ago. then too many people started moving here from other states and trying to make it like other towns. now there's too much traffic, too much traffic calming, too many people in shopping centers etc etc.

Used to be a great town, now it's just horrible.

mood apathetic?

i love brisbane ;)

close to everything - easy(ish) to get around, pretty chilled (not as much as canberra mind you :D)

i cant wait to limiter bash it and redline shift in the new tunnel however :laugh:

I moved from Wollongong to Brisbane for work end of 07, loved the place after staying here for 2 weeks! However just in this short time I can see the increase in people and traffic and the other gripes people have mentioned. I guess I can't talk though, after all I'm part of that population increase lol Still though I don't mind Brisbane, but it's a bit far from the coast line for my liking.. I guess it's what I was used to

moved 2 years ago and although its not Melbourne in terms of POSHness, Brisbane got other things going for it

I used to fly to Sydney for work every 2 weeks or so and Trust me. Brisbane does not have a traffic problem.

i lived there for 3 months recently and loved it...would move up if i had the opportunity to.

my mrs isn't real keen on it...she says the city lacks culture.

Got it right.. Brisbane City is pretty ghey.

I have lived in and around Brissy for 25 years. There are some nice places around the city that are good to go too. You just have to know where to go.

Other then that it is ok. I prefer Perth personally, much more organised.

Brisbane sucks :D

Come to the beautiful Gold Coast where you can be getting a nice tan on the beach one day and then stabbed or shot the next . . . lol

why drive that far when we can get all that stabby goodness, right here in sunnybank? Now with added minor bird/masked lapwing swoopage for your enjoyment.

But yeah, brisbane is the place to be for sure.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
