I'd be getting myself a T3 TS50 (auto) as a daily for around $30k, look for an EL GT in the best condition I could find and budget around $50k and for $20k I'd probably split it between an old Toyota 4runner or Surf or something

I guess a T3 goes for the same price as a new Golf GTi, so Id settle for one of those aswell. You have good taste, im assuming that T3 was manual aswell ![]()

R34 GTR V-Spec II, and one of those new Toyota's Advanced Sports Car Concept cars that was unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show recently. Hybrid tech v6, 0 - 100kph in under 5 seconds... very nice looking car, and supposedly going to sell for sub $40k

Easy, I'd waltz into Roaring Forties and ask for a GT40 kit. I'd spend the change on all the best options. Then take it home in boxes, put it together, get it rego'd.

PRB Clubman – honeycomb aluminium body (not the South African kit thing that they also sell), external roll cage, no windscreen and a Honda S2000 driveline – the NSW distributor has built a couple like this. They also built one of two specials that were as light as possible with turbocharged Toyota twin cams in them – very good p/w.
And a cheap tow pig – AU XR8 ute or a SAAB 9-5 Aero. Failing that an Elfin MS8 (I’ve driven a Streamliner but not an MS8). Whatever other faults it has it is still quick. The new Bolwell is another possibility. Second-hand BMW M3 with the competition pack…..

Nothing, I have my dream cars, however, I would build one mean ar$e garage!! 10 car garage, hoists, dyno, work shop. And to top it off, make my dream driveway, 1/2 mile long drag strip, 1/4 mile for drag racing and the rest to slow down (including burnout pad) when I collect my mail at the end of the run I'll get my time slip. ![]() ![]()

I'd spend $30odd on a hardtop and the rest on a VE GTS which I would then proceed to detune and get publicly blown away by as many korean cars as possible.
