View Full Version : Hello from Adelaide
Hey all, Im new to the whole car scene, but ive wanted to get into it for soooo long, however as with most people, funding is the biggest stopper. Now im working a new job (for honda none the less) and got some cash flowing in. At this stage Im driving a P.O.S. 86 Mazda, which i will be upgrading in a month to a brand spankin new honda.
At this stage still torn between a Civic Sport, and then kit the crap outa it, or a new Euro with the factory sport kit. Main delemma being, do i get the cheaper 30k car and spend 14k making it awesome, or a slightly more expensive car at about 44k, with less room to kit but a nicer starting point.
Thanks for having me and lookin forward to gettin to know everyone

if u think the new euro looks rad, come into my dealer, we have a euro with full aero kit and aftermarket 10 spoke rims, it looks sooooooooooooo mad i cannot even explain it. its going pretty soon tho someone bought it, flew off the floor, talking the boss into doing another one tho

Go S2K! then at least you've had one, and good resale when you wanna change.
And you get to take me for a spin lol
haha, tho i mlooking at the insurance prices...they hurt a bit, but **** it if im gonna have an s2000 who cares lol. i can get one for the same price as a civic new so it is becomming more and more tempting...
well you will all be happy to know, i have finally settle on a car and its a type R, im getting it for 34k used, gonna go have a twice over on it today and put a deposit on it next week i think. its black which is a bit poo as i wanted red but for that price i cant complain

i was the guy wearing red with white stripe jacket at the service desk. naa its cool mate lol
surely honda give you discount if you buy one of them stock haha
not really actually, and im not buying it from honda, i found one at a used car place for pretty cheap as. i dont remember, if i was on the phone at the service desk chances are it was the car guy, i was trying to find a hybrid for a customer and the guy phoned lol.
