I am looking into getting one... very seriously. And very soon, which reminds me I have a Holden Commodore VL for sale so pm with enquiries if you wish
I was just wandering if you have had one how they were for insurance (I'm 19 and guessing it'll be a fair bit more for me)?
how you found it as a car to drive, fuel consumption (on an aussie scale, not american etc.)? I have read many positive reviews on this car and given the the specs i can see why!
Any replies would be good.
Here is afew pics.
Thanks All. Mick

And before you start defending yourselves and say that your are a good driver and dont speed, etc, etc, there is too many variables out there, and couple that with inexperience, you get a highly combustible situation. I have owned a skyline, and its just too tempting and fun to drive fast, and when you dont have the experience, then the risk of an accident is extremely high.

You look at the specs of the car, i'm not wanting to buy it for its engine or power, although thats a bonus, but i want it for it's all round performance, practicality and price.

i reckon any p plater with a high powered car will race it. Whatsthe point of having a high powered car? to go fast.
turbos blowers (superchargers) all made to go faster.
But in saying that the stageas are f'en awsome.... and would be an awsome car to own.. 4wd so you got extra traction there.

wrx's are all over the place and over priced.
wagon is just perfect, i can lay the seats down chuck a matress in there and sleep in comfort if needed
at first i didn't like these cars, but having looked into them they are absolutely awesome IMO

A good alternative imo would be the GT forrester or the WRX wagon! ( but im a bit "subuaru" biased ) They would also be much easier to get parts for...
Before getting my wrxy sedan, i was after a wagon aswell...something different and they look real nice dumped low...but it wasnt too be...
The wrx my99 that i bought is wikid! very very happy, and highly recommended to anyone... and its decent on petrol! at the mo, i get around 400-450kms on 50L...and i hurt it quite a bit ( cant wait to get my front mount & boost controller! )
Anyways...what ever you get, try reg it in your parents name...
cheers,

btw: heres a pic of my baby!
