reax Posted 19November, 2014 Report Share Posted 19November, 2014 Do you often browse through car sales to see what is on offer and come across something that is interesting not Porsche related? Or think, that might be a nice daily driver in city traffic and save the P car the horrors of shopping centre car parking. Well this is the thread for you My PFA search skills are not obi wan like, so I apologise if there is already a thread. On with the show. It looks like the update Focus ST is due very soon as currently there are quite a few 2014 models listed on car sales for $33 900 drive away. Cheapest 2014 model http://www.carsales.com.au/nearnew/details/Ford-Focus-2014/AGC-AD-16763650/?Cr=1&sdmvc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GC9911 Posted 19November, 2014 Report Share Posted 19November, 2014 You mean there are cars other than Porsche?????? But seriously I like your choice, always thought the Focus was under rated. There are some really nice BMW bargains out there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coastr Posted 19November, 2014 Report Share Posted 19November, 2014 Shame that G Wagen is a shorty! I'd take it...don't like the colour much though. For some reason either teutonic silver or military olive green is my choice. 635 is interesting.... I've been in 'passionate discussions' before about the collectibility of a 635. On the one hand you have motorsport pedigree, classic looks, relatively simple mechanics (shared driveline components with regular 5/7 series) and good brand. On the other hand, it's not terribly sporty and retains a whiff of golf club special. Many are autos, after all. So it is still pretty much overlooked, a bit like the 928. Maybe big luxury coupes just aren't where it's at. Maybe the M3s just put it in the shade too much. But you can make them look sweet with the right wheels and (cringes) stance.

edgy Posted 19November, 2014 Report Share Posted 19November, 2014 I just think they look awkward as a SWB, wouldn't be practical for me either. There is a decent looking SWB on eBay that's a Japan import too. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=181578615602 I don't really like the engine options in Aussie delivered W460's either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJM Posted 24November, 2014 Report Share Posted 24November, 2014 Always liked the look of these http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Alpine-Renault-GTA-1987/SSE-AD-467970 Doubt ownership would be as good - shocked to see they only had 118kW. Or for a different flavour 120Y with 450rwhp GTR engine.......looks like it might tip over at the first corner. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Datsun-120Y-1975/SSE-AD-3047634 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
