Hi folks,
I recently became an r36 owner after owning a couple of bimmers and am loving this well made car - performance and refinement! Im a convert. Looking forward to checking out the forum!
Cheers

Welcome to the forum Howdy! I live out in Yass but pretty much travel to Canberra every day so I might spot you. What colour is your R36? Any distinguishing features? I'm fairly new to the forum but have found it very useful when trying to find answers to some VW idiosyncracies. I'm driving a black 06 Jetta TSI with lots of extra chrome including a shiny stainless steel 3" APR catback.

G'day Hilly,

My r36 is not tricked out at all - stock standard, biscaye blue. Best car I've ever owned. Was a into bimmers but in terms if bang for buck this car has it all - refinement, performance and yet still a practical family car to boot.

I'll keep a look out for your Jetta - sounds hard to miss!

You must come in down the Barton highway and on to northbourne in the mornings so I'll keep my eyes peeled

Cheers
Duke

R36s are amazing, that or an mk4 R32, next on the list!

G'day governor - I'm north side too. Will try and get some shots up in next little bit.

R36 not quite as torquey as my older bimmer v8 but its quicker and the handling is superb. Ride comfort not bad either but we are spoiled here with our roads. R36s love roundabouts too

You have shots of your ride?

Florentonio - yes I'd take a r32 as well!
