Looking for a luxury or very nice sports car for a Formal

Post by lolo888 »

Hi All,

Was hoping you can help a brotha out 8)
Actually, a cousin of mine.
He has a year12 formal coming up (Sept 23.) and can't really afford to hire a car for the night to drop him off.
As a present I'd like to rent one for him.
I don't really want to pay $500 for a 1 day hire of a sports car.

Was hoping, do any of you guys (or a friend) who'd like to earn a little $$ for an hour or 2 of their time (will neg. $$ when a car is available).
Just need to pick him up and drop him off.

He was happy to go on my GPvR... but I'd like him to show up in a litle more flashier car... doesn't matter how much he and i love the FTO :P

He lives in Seven Hills area and drop off at Canley Vale area I think...

Thanks in advance.

Luxury cars for a formal - convince him otherwise!

I went in one of my friends Honda NSX :) Has been in autosalon a few times [OZSMRT]. If he is interesting, contact Angus through his business webiste (OZSMART), tell him Madison & Jay with the white 33 told you. I met him years ago at the illegal drags and he has been doing up the car for years (imported it really cheap), it was black when I was in it but he was spraying it either jade green or candy apple red .. It looks good with its really deep dish, HUGE rims! Not over the top like the cars you see these days ... ** so many m*r*ns kept asking me what kind of ferrari it was during my formal **


OR, not really luxury but my cousin has a mustang that he does formals with. He lives in Dean Park.

Thanks for all the reply, offers & suggestions :) much appreciated!
Good news is I've found a car, a mix of luxury & speed.
0-100 in 4.9secs
Might take the whole day off to make the most of it, not often I'll be driving one of these :)

I like the NSX idea, will keep that info for future events. Bushido, I'm sure he'll be the talk of the night with him approaching on a wheelie. Nighthawk, do u really have a Viper? Or r u pulling my leg?

Yeah, only 4.9secs, don't want to go too fast, then no one can appreciate the beauty of the car as it goes by :)
Bushido, you're VERY close. Do u want one last guess before I confirm it? Remember it's luxury, prestige & power rolled into one :)
