car hunting

[Dv8er - FSTWRX]

In the same boat really. Thinking of selling my car soon.

Have been tempted with the EZ30R wagons with the 6speeds, will most likely go down this road when the time comes.

Or one of these http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/forester/auction-382733058.htm

Not the most attractive, but it's pretty dam practical in comparison to a STi RA, and still has a bit of boogy

[Kiwi_Fozze]

ONE VERY SEXY WAGON id get it in aheart beat but alas by budget dosent really strech that far.

im sitting around the 14k limit at this stage,

in th last few hours ive actually been thinking of hanging on to my car for now, throughing a little extra money at it and making it more attractive. maybe touch up the paint. and keep it nice. then it should still be worth the top end of what a v5 sti ra is worth when in 6-12 months i decide to sell again...

hmmmmm but... i want a V8 spec c... hahahaha!

hi dude well hope u win in the end but that v8 link u put up isnt that bad and looks nice aswell ;D

[ODB]

+1 for the Forester STI 2004 onwards.

Id have one if the mrs would let me and I had that much to blow on a car!

[BlkPnthr]

Yeah, i'm liking the STi fozzys as well, even though they look like fridges. I test drove one a couple of years ago, and it almost felt as fast as my old V10 sti. That's what impressed me!

Get a cheap but fun handling daily driver, like an old Peugeot 106GTi or something. Cheap to buy, really cheap to run, big fun, no-one will steal it. Spend the rest on a Lotus 7 replica for a track car if you feel the need for a track car.

[Jammasta]

I really don't see the point in going from what you consider (by the way you've priced it so high) an impeccable GC8, to what is a pretty rough V8 STi.

[RAYDEO]

can someone in Auckland who knows what theyre looking at check this car out for me?

[BlkPnthr]

Potential here if you're considering V7's: http://www.clubsub.org.nz/forum/index.php/topic,22971.0/topicseen.html

[Scoobydoo]

BOT OF THE ABOVE CARS ARE OUTSIDE MY PRICE RANGE :-[

[KwS]

Ive had my eye on that white STI from oamaru/timaru since it got listed. Its crazy cheap for what it is imo, and looks really tidy.

I would be worried about a 10k V7 tbh, thats pretty cheap.

You know you want to...

True, I saw the price and thought STI, good price if it was, but not so much if WRX

[RAYDEO]

I've got someone checking that 10k V7 out today hopfully.

Ive been talking to the guy in oamaru with the V8 but he wants 14.5 and i just cant get the extra 2.5k

[stira]

I went through this, ended up buying a b6 Audi a4 3.0 6 speed, best decision I made. Looks the business, much nicer to ride in and way more practical than my old sti's.

[BlkPnthr]

I went through this, ended up getting a loan for some extra cash and buying a V10 Best decision i ever made too, only ever regretted selling it. When i was looking at something to buy a couple of years ago, ended up with a 2.8L BMW.. really liked it for a while, and thought i wanted the nicer ride etc, but eventually got bored of it and am now back in a GTB and wanting an STI. Each to their own though

[EJ20T]

Just buy my RSK and then with the price differance to a STI you can buy a track hack GC8!!!

[RAYDEO]

You may have just hit the nail on the head there mate!!!

Ok here's one for all you legacy lOvers,

Bh legacy GT-B E tune or Be legacy B4 RSK REV-D

What's the difference apart from the obvious?

Let the duel begin!

correct me if i'm wrong but the E-Tune stands for economy so less power? revision D is the way to go however. alloy bonnet? and will be newer / better condition and stuff. Lights look cooler too

what about a legacy sedan with the ez30?
