I'm 22.

I have been driving a Peugeot 206 GTi for the past four years. It's such fun to drive! Just recently though I have come into possession of an Alfa Romeo MiTo 155. Similar to the Peugeot, it's a fun FWD hot (warm?) hatch, but it is slightly goobey at the front.

I think everyone has to have a Japanese sports car once in their lives though :P

'98 Celica - cause it was cheap and I was poor.
Would have baught a Supra since then, but it damn-near impossible to find one that hasnt been ruined by some jerk whos seen "The Fast and the Furious" too many times. Oh and I'm 27.

I just bought the S14, so now I won't be replacing the Celica with an 86, ...well not for a couple more years anyway.

Old enough to have already owned a few cars, figured out what they like, and have the income to buy one.

i mean this is going to be the only sporty car of its kind at the price its going to be at so its a viable option for a lot of young enthusiasts.

please do not underestimate the mark up, the taxes and all the bullshit that goes with a car's price here in Aus this point you make might be the case for the rest of the world but im already anticipating getting scrwed over by toyota aus and subaru AND the government.

to the point where i've now bought myself a second car(used) and am going to have to wait acouple more years to own this one, most probably second hand...

Hi Guys, 35, NSW Central coast. Current cars:

old falling apart pulsar to leave at the train station and an 05 outback

I've owned 3 1970s Celicas and an MR2 previously

Here's a nice little toy i got recently though

[chopstickz]

22 Just picked this up recently. My third owned Supra.

25, currently rocking a 2001 Mazda Tribute, haha. Worst car I've ever owned, but was needed since I acquired a child in March last year and have 2 large dogs.

Prior to that I had an Aristo, which was written off by a taxi who decided that I was invisible. Currently have an extremely modified AE86 sitting up in the shed too, but I don't have the cash to finish it at the moment. Also have a 1972 LJ Torana too, but that doesn't get driven.

Have owned a lot of cars over the years... think one of my favourites was a 1989 MR2 SW20 turbo (yeah, it was one of the very first... if the VIN# was anything to go by, #226 off the production line). Was such a fun car to drive. Only got rid of it because I was worried I was going to kill myself in it... unintentional oversteer with cheap tyres made me feel a bit uncomfortable with it. It was written off 3 months after I sold it.

I did love the old Kingswoods, which I'd driven a few of. Such big boats, but just fun to throw around despite the body roll. One of the best bits was being able to stand in the engine bay, whilst it was still in... and I'm not exactly small either. Such an easy type of car to work on. Even a novice can change an engine in a weekend.

Had a KE70 panel van once. Great fun to drive. One of my fondest moments was when some mates and I found a gravel patch after rain, going hard out in reverse, then pulling 180's while in motion... movie style! My girlfriend currently drives a KE70 sedan actually.

Do what I am doing, set a price you are willing to pay and if the car exceeds that value, simply buy something else. Ok yes so you don't get the car but like anything in life, something cooler/cheaper/better will come along soon enough and grab your attention just as much.
