A bit ugly, and certainly not anyones favourite but still pretty fast and reliable and constantly underrated.

i was thinking Nissan 2002 R34 GTR V-Spec II
-Fast
-Furious
-Unrelenting
-Reliable
-Either you love it or hate it
-Amazing amount of power

I was intially thinking along the same lines but then I thought the Skyline is a bit of a cult car and is much to well liked by people who dont drive it to be a true representation of sydney.

Maybe a more accurate line of thinking might be the RX-7

around 80k for a r34 gtr
it costs about 60k to get an r33 gtr rbdett
35k to get a 200sx r-spec
about 30k for a r33 single turbo rwd
about $20k for an r32gtr rbdett & $18k for an r32

the v-spec Ii just comes with all options, and is a super duper car and is definitely, definitely worth the money :thumbsu: a 6'r capable of 1000 horses ;)

No point having all that power though, laws prevent you from using anything close to that. I'd rather spend it on something practical in a car.

Ricciuto, McLeod, Goodwin and Edwards are the hottest set of mags on earth, but the tread is wearing down fast. I'm sorry, but the likes of Shirley, Doughty, Mattner and Reilly are mere hubcaps by comparison.

WESTERN BULLDOGS:

The 1954 model was the best so far, but

http://myweb.irongate.co.nz/mwdata/westcityholden/webpages/images/FJ%20Web.JPG

the 1961 was close to being the best car that year

http://www.nextcar.com.au/e.i.2005.ahd.EK.green.JPG

Ran OK for a number of years, but nearly written off in 1989 and 1996

http://www.mindflayer.net/images/Jun2004_SC0297sm.jpg

A new bloke took over driving in 1996 while Scotty Clayton started rebuilding the drivetrain from 1999 but this driver reckoned it had out of petrol in 2002 and left it by the side of the road. Our next driver Peter wasn't quite right and we looked a bit silly in 2003 and 2004
