i was in the same boat.....just put money away for something(OE or house or car) and after my 21st i bought my car. i then managed to save a deposit for a house the same year(although only just as the prices of everything are going up and up) and with a expensive car can be expensive running costs :-( |

Got my IS200 when i was 21 had it for a little over a year now, 22 now. Got a loan, paid it off within a year. My secret, if you are doing uni, take a little longer, get a job whilst studying then graduate with experience and get a new job, this puts you in a great position and makes you very valuable as a graduate. Hobbies are important, everyone needs one as they are consistent help you through the highs and lows, ideally you shouldn't have to take a loan, but your priorities are judged by your own life and if it makes you happy and you aren't hurting anyone go for it! |

Bought my RS200 Manual around 2 weeks ago, I'm only 19 and its my 3rd car! I've previously had a Honda Torneo 2.0 DOHC VTEC and an Auto RS200 Altezza. Had to get a loan to buy it but I should pay that off when I sell my Honda. |

Got my '99 Altezza (IS200 Legana) end of 2004 - I'm 27 now. Was getting toward the end of my Mech Eng degree and already working full time, studying part time. I've had a few cars over the years... and reason got the Lexus as a nice daily driver because my AE86 got excessively modified, only lasted about a month before I started to tinker with the 'tezza :lol: |

I had a forester xs after that and i miss that car too, but mum decided to write it off, fortunately thats when i started looking for my IS. So many fun times in that suby standing out the sunroof whilst doin 120 on the way to the coast lol! I quote my friend who was the first to try it. "its like a roller coaster but really windy and you think you are gonna die" |

Only purchased my IS300 8 months ago and I'm 28. By the time the 12 months anniversary comes around I hope to have the car transformed to my style, I'm approx halfway there now with 4 months left to get my stereo system installed and elegance lipkit sorted! Previous cars: Honda Accord VTI-S riding on air with heaps mods Suzuki GTi remember these, there were the WRX's of the mid 90's ![]() Future car: I'm thinking of a high end Audi something like an S6 or an RS4 obviously 2nd hand! |

Audi R8 in a couple of years yea?? Went and had a look at one on Saturday (just looking of course hahaha, be a while until i can afford that), quite a nice looking vehicle, front is much nicer than that on the EvoX i saw yesterday, EvoX front looks overworked, Audi front looks clean, yet edgey and agressive. Personal opinion of course :lol: |

LOL!!! Thats what I did. Been through the following: 3.1TD Isuzu Bighorn - first car, turd! DC2 Type-R Integra - first 'fastish' car, got sick of it soon E46 Compact on bags - my 'bling bling haha' EP82 Starlet GT - blown motor hehe 1983 Mitsi Mirage - daily - got for bloody cheap, $900, with one, yes one owner, lady in NZ, done 98,000kms since new, cambelt etc done, new clutch, new battery, 1 year of rego and new wof... feel stink now for the old lady haha And lastly but not least my Altezza. And the only car I got 'free' was the Bighorn, which I sold for the DC2, then saved, made $1,300 profit when I sold the DC2, got the E46 after ages of saving, spent too much on it, sold it, got the Altezza, and the GT as a daily (which I recently blew running 15pounds through the tiny CT9 Turbo haha), and the Mirage after seeing it was such a good deal, and cheap too! So Im on number 6, and Im 20. (if you dont count the Honda City Turbo that I got given by my mate who moved to Aus and I sold after about 4 months) So of the 6, I paid for 5. Not a mission, just no life, working all day and night! Think this is a keeper for a tiny bit more though haha |
