Based on OP being a HSC 2010 (yes I BoS stalked him/her just to see which threads they posted in) and not a car enthusiast, let's stick to the cars which are both P Plate friendly and not necessarily aimed at enthusiasts: New - Mercedes C200K / C220 - BMW 320i / 323i - Audi A4 1.8T/2.0T - Lexus...

FYI response from the owner: Guess different person.

I'm asking him on FB for ya.

It did surprisingly well at the skidpan but yeh, I think AWD is stil the way to go. As for the 320i for $70k, I think you might be able to get a 323i but that'd be about it. For $70k, you could also get a few of the A4 range upto the 2.0T (delivered). The 370z in manual driveaway is around...

yeh one of my mates moved from an evo to an f6 and is now complaining about total lack of grip even with good tyres

Good list but don't think 325i d/a will be under.

At the end of the day, the car is designed for road use as well as track use- these factors have already been considered when they tuned the engine at the factory. Whether or not that still applies once you get the 270kW+ ECU tunes is another matter. Anyway I'm not planning to go for an...

which dc2r? and it's an evo5. no evo6's this time (quite odd considering they're very numerous in our area but probably not a uni student club)

It's a local car meet aimed at uni students/young people- it's not going to be the who's who of cars! Either way, it was still a good chance to socialise/hang out/take a few photos.

There was also a couple of BoSers at the meet.

1. http://community.boredofstudies.org/505/cars-automobiles/102355/what-cars-does-everyone-drive.html 2. The Civic is technically my parents-funded car since it was bought as a reward for getting the cadetship and into uni at the time. The Lancer I saved up for and paid for in cash bought...

Thought I would share this with the other guys on the BoS cars forum if anyone was interested in attending one of our informal social gatherings :) I try to organise something informal every now and then for one of the forums I post on for uni students (AUSCA---Australian Universities Student...

smaller engine? no idea what u're referring to but stock is 19psi. Source: Kijima, Evo X stock boost - JDM Style Tuning Forum (he works for TMR Australia) Note: (approx from Google) 1.3 bar = 18.9 psi 1.5 bar = 21.7 psi 1.7 bar = 24.7 psi ...as for the BOV being too quiet... it isn't...

depends what u want. on appearance alone the car doesn't look that bad but driving wise, it's based on the previous gen SLK and at least when it came out, it attracted a certain type of audience. but hey, to each their own. hmm... i guess a 2006 (or whenever e90 came out) 320i could be 20k...

yeh it's the corolla i mentioned int he other thread about being a sleeper... has a celica engine in a corolla body. as well as a few trd goodies.

Ask the owner of JDMST... he owns it now.

Resembles in appearance... I guess :) But yeh it really does bug me that they have (effectively!!!) advertised their stupid Swift as a rally car.

For the new or current Swift? Current model prices in NSW as at 13/06/2010: Suzuki Australia | Swift S | Price | Latest News In summary; 74kW Swift (base model) starts at 16,990 driveaway manual or 18,690 auto. Swift Rally Edition *barf* 18,990 manual or 20,690 auto driveaway. Swift...

Beat this- a girl told me she thought Swifts were cool because they were rally cars. >__>

I presume we're not including the ones from the old days... e.g. Commander Keen, God of Thunder, Grand Prix, Doom, Wolfenstein, Prince of Persia, etc..?
