    Nice cars. Love the R32 GT-R and the HR31 - I always wanted the Jap import of the R31.

    tomtom, why'd you get rid of the GT-R?

    For the fellow closet bogans; here are mine:

    My first car when I was 18, started stock and then spent too much time and money on it. '94 ED, changed from auto to manual, bigger cam etc. Lots of fun and pretty quick.




    Second car felt like a step back lol. It was an original 5-speed EA S-Pac with Recaros and some other bits and pieces. This thing used to haul some arse too. I felt like a bogan driving it so I only kept it for a month or two before I got the GTI.

    First car:
    92 Laser Ghia. All the options pretty much, power windows, power mirrors, 1.8L engine, sports exhaust (not a wanky exhaust but it had a noice note to it ). Had just over 300,000kms when I traded it in. It was a great car.



    Second car:
    2008 Hyundai i30 SLX CRDi. Bought brand new, but had nothing but problems with it so got rid of it with just over 4000kms on the clock. Damn shame because it was a nice car.


    Current:
    2007 2.0 TDI MKV.
    Which I absolutely love!!! Beats the pants off the Hyundai in every way.
    I took this pic today.

    Awesome pics everyone.

    It's great to see how we've transitioned from such different character type cars to the simplistic stylings of the VWs.

    I absolutely love the R32 GTR since I was in High School, played Gran Turismo which intro'd me to the love. Made a goal with my mate that I will get a GTR before 23 and he'll will get a S4/S5 RX7. We were both able to meet our goals. But my GTR was old and spent so much money which left my pockets empty. Decided sell it and move on. Mate has a S4.5 RX7 daily driver after several rebuilds decided to keep as too much money was spent on it already no worth to sell.

    Keep em coming!!!
