The Dark Side
« on: 25 April 2008, 17:57 »
I've had about 20 cars in 5 years of motoring - all Golf GTI/VR6/R32's bar a Subaru STI  :evil: and a Micra 1.0  :embarassed: :lipsrsealed:  I've decided to order my next new car within a month - still keeping the Ed30, thats never going to be sold.  But after waiting for VW to bring out something a bit special - like the Mk2 G60 Limited was in its time, limited to 90 cars I think and 210bhp in 1991 - I've given up hope and am ordering a Nissan  :huh:

If I was going to spend £55k+ on a car, it wouldn't be a Nissan  :grin:

I would NEVER buy a Japanese car, I just love the German engineering. If I had lots of money it would be an RS4 (test drove one last week OMG!) or the R8.

Ford, bah I'd rather walk.

Seriously.

No offence to anyone who owns theres makes of cars, of course, just my opinion  :wink:

GT-R   :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:   :drool: :drool: :drool:

Although I can understand where New Golf is coming from as I have the same general impression of non-German cars... however, after all the reviews I have read I am converted.  But one thing about Jap car manufacturers I have to say is that they don't hold back when speccing hardcore race cars and give enthusiasts what they want.  Even the new Type-R has Recaro bucket seats as standard   :sad:  Also I wouldn't want to spend £30K more on an Audi R8 when its slower and on the same level - maybe even below - the GT-R as a performance car. As for the Audi RS4  :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:  lovely when it came out but the GT-R has moved the game along...   Also, I'll still have my Ed30 to drive - should be doing 310hp by the time the GT-R arrives sometime in early 2010.

Did you not consider the V-Spec? Lighter & more powerful.
