The car buying hassel - yshimy - 12-02-2005

its me again trying to find a car. countdown started as my driving test is on Monday.

ok, I'm still looking for a car. here are my rivals i know there are huge difference but i'm in a flexible budget and willing to through if i'm having fun: (PLEASE HELP ME)

Golf GTI 03+
Accord 04+
BMW 325/328/330/ci 01+
Merc C200/230/320 03+

And for those i'm willing to cross the 100 k mark
Porsche Boxster S 98+
Nissan 350z (My fav so far)
Nissan Murano ( might enjoy offroading, but not hardcore)

If new, i'm thinking about the new Civic, so far the Si is not available.


Please give me your opinion, my criteria are as follows:

Max 2300 AUDm/month
Maintenance Cost
Resale Value
fuel consumption (least criteria)

Thank you all in advance.

Same sinario different person.

I FAIlED TODAY the driving test, and was reschudeled for 7th Feb and i talked with the guy and he changed it to 26t of Dec, which is still to far.

I did everything wrong you can imagine, i can't believe i did those silly mistakes, but i paniced after he failed the other 3 guys and i was the 4ht.

Anyway, don't know what to do.

Anyone know what would happen if i was caught driving with internaitonal license while i have residancy????

Mine was also converted over, just paid for the eye exam and the coversion fee.

Rudeboy, price me up for an GT-R34 or a Spec C STi (02 onwards).


- yshimy - 12-06-2005

Thanx all,
My original license is Egyptian license, and i got my international one from Egypt too, (i'm german national) but lived in Egypt.

Thats why they don't convert it. Sad((

Anyway, looking forward for my next exam, well what the heck it will not make difference for me.

Wow, this I was to see as well. If they are around what you were saying earlier (on another thread), then I too might be up for it. Stolen to order! hahahahahahaha

I want RHD and they will remain RHD.

Well lets say put it this way, i can get you well under 100K.....around 60K for Boxster. By looking at Australia market i have to say some car prices are higher there than here in US.
