Good to see so many have voted. But it's still a small fraction if you look at the overall FTO Australia membership of 890 (at the moment).
I'm 25, edging on 26 and have loved the FTO from the beginning. My friends ask me: "why do you spend so much on your car?". But honestly, I intend to keep it well into my 30s and do not particularly want to trade up.
Keep those votes coming

I got mine on my b'day and it's probably the best car for a "first car", it's powerfull but not sort of power which can kill you, it's stylish.........well it looks like a 100k european sports car. Finally the attention.....I LUV it.
oh, so i gather that you have not seen Danny in his FTO yet then?
hmmm... what would you classify as a 'non-mature' car??
btw, ANY car with ANY sort of power (even if it's just a 800cc Daihatsu) can still kill you in the wrong hands, but yes in terms of styling, nothing else below the $100K mark would come close!

not that i know how old is he though
I'm
25 too!
If 50 is considered old, then i'm in between... "
Middle age"???
put it this way - Danny is older than a majority of the regular forumers here! (old enough to be my uncle, hehehe...)

I havent seen Danny yet, but most of the people i see cruising in ftos are early 20's. No disrespecting the older fto community.k It was just my opinion.

my front strut brace (cusco) is with a manufacturer at the moment, we've made major improvements and reduced the weight (by using titanium) pricing and product availability will be announced shortly i'm just waiting on them to get back with details
