FOREWORD:
The following thread has been created due to popular demand from the abundance of peoples desire to know what car they should buy. This thread aims at helping and educating the average car buyer as to what they need to do in order to get the perfect ride that suits them.
This thread was a joint effort with the help from a few of our daily users who I would like to mention: Heco94, Upamanyu, Milkchicken and myself(Jmac)
It should also be noted that among the four of us, Milkchicken is a certified mechanic, therefore if you doubt the credibility of this thread then I would advise you re-think it.
Just a bit of grounder: Car buying is a long process; don’t expect to be driving in your new car tomorrow afternoon, even if you are only looking for a beater, unless your upamanyu.
DISCLAIMER:
Any opinions, suggestions and advice you wish to take out of this thread is the advice of forum members and MCM cannot be held responsible for any damage to you or another being’s car, nor can the creators of this thread be at fault.

Also if your a P plater, please read this first before deciding what car you are buying:
P plater car buying tip:
If you have over $5000 and your on your P/L’s and are into modding cars, wait out on buying an expensive car until you have your Full license. Once there you will have an endless limit of cars (turbo, more the 6cyl..etc) you can buy with no license restrictions. It is recommended to wait it out a buy a cheaper car in the time being but if you insist on buying from a very limited, high in demand target of cars then good luck. We all know you want it NOW but good things come to those who wait. Consider if you will be keeping the car after you get your full license. this can make all the difference when you fork out the cash for a P plate legal Sports car. A premium is put on these cars as they are in demand, and re selling it after you have your full licence is not as easy as you might think.
