330 ci or r33 ?

[bbb]

ok......

i have a question. would u get a fully loaded new 01' 330ci or would u get a used 96' r33 gtr v-spec? the only reason i dout getting the r33 is because what if u get into an accident. dont u have to wait like 2 months for the parts to arrive from japan? and also about actually importing the car and last the insurence? the 330ci looks nice. im 16 years old and my parents are willing to spend about 40k for my first car. my brother has the 2001 audi a6 2.7t. so which one would u choose ?

Well the Skyline would be a beast, but being only 16 you would probably kill yourself in it. The 330ci looks cool, will have a warranty, and is no slouch, so I would take that if I were your position.

And I can't beleive your parents are buying you a US $40K car when you are 16. Some folks out there must be so rich it makes me feel sorry for myself.

because i have 6k saved up right now and if i get the 330ci then ima get a hamann wide body kit and i get the r33 then ima get the veilside r33-ce kit on it. they both look really nice after the kit is put on.

hey man if i were you and mom & dad were footing the bill i'd definetly go with the R-33. being stationed in germany i really didn't like the bmw's as much as say, audi tt. plus the bmw has really bad drain points so after you wash it you get a dripline in front of and behind the doors on both sides of the car. hope this helped.

i'm 16 and i have 10grand and my parents won't chip in for shit...i'm just thinking about a 240sx...and get a 95 r33, it's way cheaper than a 96...if not that get an audi s4 instead of the bimmer

actually i have 8.5grand i like rounding up

geez your lucky. If i was i your position I would have put my R33 order in already and it would have taken my about 2 seconds to make that choice. Get it and send me a pic after you get the body pack on. Is it the one with the grey stripe on the hood and on the side saying "Veilside combat GT-R" thats the best one. Itll kick some anus if you know what I mean. And youll always be able to find your car and it could be the fastest thing in town. I envy you.

Have you ever seen an R33 up close in real life? Touched it, sat in it? If you haven't you can't make a decision until then. Where abouts do you live? If you're serious about getting one I could probably hook up a meeting so you could see one if you're in So Cal.

[R33]

Hi bbb, you are one lucky kid for sure. When I was 16, I even had to save hard for my soccer boots!
As people on this board know, I own a R33 GTR. It's big and heavy but rather easy to drive and maneuvour around town. On the track, it's a different kind of animal altogether. The Beamer don't even come close though I would think that it is more comfortable than the 33 GTR. If you go for the Beamer, buy an M3 - stock 33 GTR is less powerful than the M3. But hell, the GTR is not merely a car, it is a driving experience in itself. Drive it, get to know it and it's capabilities, slam the pedal and you would never think of another car save probably of a Diablo! My advice, go for a test drive in both cars. Than decide.....I think I already know which one you would buy after the drive!

I think the R-32 is the better GT-R performance wise.

Where I live the 330Ci and GTR are in a totally different league from each-other.

But I say get an R-32 GT-R

[USA Racer]

I'm 16 also. And as much as I would like the GT-R it's an import. For real. What if you run into problems? Insurance? BTW, you got $10k more to spend than the HIGHEST my parents would spend on a car for me. lol Get a Corvette. It preforms better than both the 330 ci or the R33 GT-R. It's lighter and sexier too. And it's a Corvette. Meaning you have a galaxy of modifications you can do to it. But alas, you'll get killed if you got the Vette. The thing is like a spaceship in the strights and handles like a Ferrari-wanna be. That means you just think and your already in the apex of you street corner and when things get stright just about any car and just forget it when it comes to catching it.

Same thing goes for the Skyline GT-R although from what I hear they eat trannys like nothing thanks to the incredible thrust you can get out of aftermarket turbos for it... lol

Get an older E36 M3 and turbo it.

Ok i dont like u but thats mostly envy talking u would pretty much be like the only kid on the block with an R33 thats for sure but if u really have to ask my guess is u arent really into the car and just know that its good so if ur going for image save us all alot of heartache and get the Bmw and enjoy being one rich kid but if u really think u could take care of such an awesome automobile then more power to u just my thoughts later...
