  1. Nice opened that just as my Nana came to say hi.

    Tuesday funnies

    Haha these are great. I like this one.
  3. With those KM's and the current market. I would think it would be worth more around 6-7K also.

    Rebuilt G260

    Looking for a conversion kit for my E30. But this one is worth more than the car itself. Haha.
  5. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-238128052.htm Would look good.
  6. Spotted a hot young asian chick driving a Black 545 E60 with black E60 19" M5 wheels. Pulled up next to her. Felt like street trash next to her car with my whimpy 540 and 18" M5 wheels. Was in Botany.
  7. On the Sedans do all Facelifts have fold down seats? I thought only NZ new or Euro/UK spec ones did. The Jap and Singashit ones I looked at did not.
  8. When I am bored. Other than my Dad my family does not wash their own cars. So I end up washing them. You get kind of lazy once you have washed 2xE36's 2xE30's An E38 An E39 and an Echo. And the fact that the E38 and E39 are black they are filthy by the next day.
  9. There was some in the Forsale section that needed recovering. Those ones in your pic have been recovered too.
  10. Last track day I went to I got put in the "Racecar" category. With cars like 600hp GTR's, Various 400hp+ Evo's etc. But the guy did give me a goodish reason for doing so. His main point was that I actually know how to drive and would suite driving with the more powerfull cars. All I wanted to do was rape Integra and Civic Type R's all day though.
  11. I never said FWD handle badly. You brought that up. lol. I just get no pleasure from driving them. Its all about what you find fun. Clarkson didn't invent burnouts and sideways driving. I was enjoying that long before I had ever heard of him. I would say a few others would have too. For me it is about controlling the car all the time no matter what it decides to do. None of this point and shoot crap.
  12. What do you expect. Your on a BMW site remember. You wouldn't be so happy if you pretty much unknown in NZ frog mobile had not been included. I am starting to think this list is nothing more than a public voted one. There is cars in there that have superior models. Good example of this is the Evo 6.5. The Evo 8 and 9 are far superior in every way. Yet still drive just like the older Evo's. The R33 GTR. Worst of the bunch. It is all personal preference. There is many FWD cars on there. I would never vote for any FWD car as a drivers car. They are nothing but Yawn in my books no matter how fast they are.
  13. Get him a second hand trampoline. I had fun on mine for years and years.
  14. Some nice cars on that list. But don't agree with many of them. I think they have a Frog working for their list creation team though.
  15. Here is some of the big brands. Not really needed though. Aesthetics is more important I think. As it will no doubt be sitting near you TV in plain sight. http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components...peid=38&t=5
  16. Yeah that is true about having to rip something to play it. Ether way a Blueray player is always good to have to show off the 1080p movies. The PS3 is an expensive Blueray player if you don't make use of its other features. $695 for the new slim model I think. ouch... But I think everyone has given you some good options and details to think about. lol. Now you just have to figure out how much you want to spend. Haha.
  17. Just realised I don't need car 2 ether. Sold them all.
  18. The WDTV unit has played every format they have tried. And as I said. You can update its software. Not sure about the sound as yet but will try tonight. Most ripped movies do not have HD sound too unless you are wanting to download 8gb+ movies everytime. Not worth it. Better off renting out Blueray's from the video shop. You can have 2 externals connected to it it at once. It is def the budget option for those who don't need the extended functions of a PC. My Dad who I purchased this for does not even have a home PC. Idea is to just bring his external around whenever he wants something new. If you don't play games. Don't get a PS3 or 360. They are not worth their price for their media playing capability. They can not play many codecs. Including most H.264 and all MKV formats. Which are the most common Mini-HD codecs.
  19. The world would be a better place if that guide was still in place.
  20. Seriously. Don't bother with a Media PC. Waste of money. I purchased a WDTV today. Had a play with it at computer lounge. Is an awesome little unit. With a great menu. Easy to use so that even your kids or Mrs could figure it out. Going to to put it through its paces tonight. But they showed me it playing a 1080 MKV file. Which most older computers can not play. Most ripped Blueray and HD files are in MKV format these days.
  21. Haha some people get so carried away in the last min bidding wars. It went from a good price. To prob what it was worth. Yet both those bidders have prob not seen the car. 10K blind buy. Not smart.
  22. For the media side of things I am getting one of these. http://www.wdc.com/en/products/wdtv/ They are cheap. Full HD. Play all the formats (PS3 does not). And saves you from having to build a media PC. And the WDTV unit can decode 1080P with out any stuttering. It is also easily portable. There is other far more expensive versions if you are wanting to get Wifi etc. But this will cost you less than half of what building a capable media PC would cost. Software for it is also upgradable for when new codecs come out. RRP: $250 + an external or Thumb drive. Then I would talk to Riley about getting a decent Receiver and Speaker package.
  23. Ebay.com I don't think anywhere in NZ would supply them.
  24. You got to love the f**king morons who ask questions like this. Someone is going to get a good deal though. Edit: Oh wait. Just realised this is the same car that has been for sale since I purchased my car back in March. He wanted around 17K for it when I was looking.
