supradibbs Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Nismo pack added should come in at around 35k ummmmmmmm........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Monaro deffo! 5.7 V8 ultra lazy...(ripe for tuning!!! 100shot of NOS for starters! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 why does he want a brand new one? that limits his possibilites somewhat. If he could be tempted into the 2nd hand market then tell him to look at TVR's, lotus etc. If I had £30k-£35k to spend it most definately would be in the 2nd hand market..... brand new cars are really ot worth their money... the amount of money you loose as soon as your name goes on the owners document even when you haven't even driven 1 mile!!

Lazarus Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Another vote for the Monaro here! Definately better than the 350Z IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hornet Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I would go for the Noble! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Peace Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 Cheers everyone....Hes going to look at a 350z tommorow...I have suggested the Monaro too. Does the 350z have a paddle shift option cant seem to find anything on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 No - 350 is manual only. I was gonna say Monaro! (Vauxhall - spits - but gets away with it coz its really a holden). First mod would to to remove all poxhall badges though! There tonnes more cars out there for that price new and nearly new that are sooooooo much better than an Audi ShiTTy.

Alex Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 So who else watched "the best of top gear" the other night ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Peace Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 oh thats that out of the question then as he wants a tiptronic with paddleshift...maybe its just the import version that has tiptronic...any other suggestions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveRex Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 why would anyone buy brand new ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesG Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I'd say if he likes Audi TTs then he's beyond help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra_Nish Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 350z will come in at just under 30k, with the extra leftover he can get the supercharger kit from middlehurst! Either that, or a z4? Mates been offered a brand new z4 Alpina for 34k! 300bhp in a drop top weghing 1300kg? Cant be bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 He should so buy used R34 GTR, monaro is cool though. And there's no way I'd buy brand new again, I really can't see the point when there's greater cars out there for the same price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Walker Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Tell him to buy the Zed and give us a call Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 If he wants tip tronic...why not a 2002 Supra? If you can find one.... Is there a legitimate reason for the tiptronic or is it cause it's a toy? The BMW M3 had a tiptronic option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I'd say if he likes Audi TTs then he's beyond help Agreed. I too would never buy new again either, a totally over rated experience ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 A citroen C2 VTR, that has paddle shift! And a 2002 supe would be v.cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Peace Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 He should so buy used R34 GTR, monaro is cool though. And there's no way I'd buy brand new again, I really can't see the point when there's greater cars out there for the same price. I agree...I would never buy brand new either. Well I give up he he....He insists on brand new, has to be Tiptronic (well I can relate to that why drive a car with a transmission system thats half a century old when you can drive a tiptronic I spose) The new Audi tiptronic system is same as used on the Gallardo and Muchialago E-gear.... I wonder if Audi will throw in a voucher for Tony and Guy to get blonde highlights he he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
