I know, I am going to miss it. I still miss my first Z, a '96 JDM 2-seater twin turbo 300zx - these cars have a tonne of character and a lot of memories.

But I have to let it go from a financial...

Heh, I hear ya. The final model HSV Maloo ute came with the 6.2L supercharged LSA engine as well.

The 2020 Impreza WRX would be the ideal pick. I used to own a GC8 many, many moons ago. However, I have mild physical...

Didn't think about the S4. The RS3/RS5 are way out of my budget though.

G37 isn't a bad idea at all, though after 6 years with the VQ, it would be nice to try a different motor especially one already boosted.

As I said above, I don't get time to drive it. Why would I drop another AU$30k on boosting a car I won't get to drive for the foreseeable future and still have to pay registration on?
