Hey for once we're in complete agreement!!! lol
international comedy festival, formula one, soccer, afl, AND rugby, australian open tennis, tropfest short film festival, much better pub/ bar scene and live music scene than anywhere else in australia [dont bother rebutting that], 2.5hrs drive from the snow, no beaches= bells beach, amongst others, master golf, etc etc....
the list goes on.
sorry, but melbourne absolutely d7cks on sydney for entertainment value.
p.s. im sydney born and raised, so yes, i DO get going to a club on the upper north shore/ eastern suburbs, hanging out with aspiring designers and musicians with minor record deals who hope to one day be as famous as selwyn was, sipping champagne all dressed up, feeling very important and busy, and convincing yourself that you're having the time of your life.... i DO get that, because it's what lures sydney siders, been there done that.
and im not understanding the melbourne-is-cloudier-than-london thing? only occasional sunshine? lol..... okay. the black saturday bushfires were caused by intense cloud ......
not having a dig, just a bit of a giggle. never any hard feelings

It is hardly universal when most people travelling from overseas always go to sydney first. Melbourne = sex with an average woman Sydney = sex with a super model.
PS. One thing i dislike about melbournians are they are artsy fartsy.
I will give you the formula one and Australian open. I go to melbourne every year to watch those 2 events. As for the rest, Sydney gets all the big socceroos games and union games. And best of all, no one gives a toss about afl <<< that alone keeps me in sydney forever. You also forgot the melbourne cup.
A few sporting events doesn't change everything, as mentioned already, i don't like melbourne because it is artsy fartsy, people are too uptight, they literally think they are better than the rest, when infact they are not.
Sydney is a much more relaxed city, friendlier i must say, for me who works in finance, it is where all the big organisations are as well. Sydney is where every thing is in Australia. Center of Australia.
Even England has beaches, doesn't mean they are any good.
Dude, you said your from the eastern suburbs! It doesn't get more snobier than that!i don't like melbourne because it is artsy fartsy, people are too uptight, they literally think they are better than the rest, when infact they are not.
PLEASE, can we get back to the dream cars?!
Mk IV Golf GTI - BMP - GIAC chip, R32 wheels, KW coilovers, rear swaybar.

Im a simple kind of guy,
Put it all in the bank, live off my 1.5+ mill a year interest, and buy myself a new car every year but buy a nice few mil place in western suburbs...because perth is clearly the best!
In no particular order
Porsche 997 Turbo
Porsche GT3 RS
Porsche 959
Lamborghini Balboni
Audi R8 V10 (One of which i saw the other day in the city)
Lotus Exige
Nissan GTR
Mercedes SLS
Various muscle cars
A rally car or 2 for playtime
Ferrari 458
Aston V12 Vantage
that should do me until im about 30 for cars
a car a year... by the time you get to 5 years... half of those cars would be old... just a thought
at one car a year, after 5 years, he hasn't even got half of them yet.
well anyways, with 20m, i will turn my pirelli into awd, put a ridonculous twin turbo x2 into the car lol
