my brother is looking at the new 9-3 Convertible Aero, fabulous looking peace of machinery, by my standards...it really is a leap from the older models (no offence) and it really caught my eye at last years sydney motorshow...

i said pretty much the same thing to him tonite actually :D hahaha....

he's going to go through a shitload of cars so why not try them all! :cheers: the audi's got 60k on the clock now after 2 years, time to go ;) his reasoning is he wants convertible and the saab is affordable and the new 9-3 looks really nice and its quite practical with the large back seat.

he'll lease cars for 2 years or 60,000km, whatever comes first, and then change. he doesnt need much convincing on an Evolution 6 or 7 but i dont think he'll settle on japanese ;) hahah

lol, until just now I don't think Kel knew about the small spin on a *ahem* closed road on a wet day. Still makes my laugh how close we came to getting nailed by Oz since he was lurking behind having a laugh.

As for the saab, it has snap oversteer when you enter turn 10 at eastern creek in the wet. :(

Actually, the saab was a great car. 4 door convertible (practical in convertible terms). High pressure turbo is quick enough. Great ride as with most euro cars. Far cheaper than comparable cars (bmw 330, audi a4, merc clk are all over 100k) Good residual, 60% after 3 years, we are getting 45% after 4 years. Fully electic room and top heater means you get to cruise to work in the middle of winter with the room off :) Top car for a cruise, I'd thoroughly recommend it.

(Just not for track work lol)

She does now Mr H!

And, on the Saab- I say "Wot he said"

Great value for money, enough go to go at the lights and not as common as a Beemer :wassup:

nice pic.....is it a boy or a girl?:)

I like the name suggested Dino! You have no idea how many blokes come up to you (thinking they are SOOOO original) and ask you to take your top off when you drive a convertible!

I think it will be a girl for no good reason except she has already cost me a bit of money, is great to look at and seems a little temperamental when the brakes are on!

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
