Soon to be MY07/08 Lib GT Spec B owner (hopefully!)
Hi all
My name's Kyle and I've been a member for over a year now... well really lurking for that long. I first signed up when I was looking to buy my second car as my first car (1992 Nissan Silvia Qs SR20DE) was written off in an accident (not my fault!). Bascially insurance didn't want to fix it, so I bought the wreck off them for $1000 and then sold it for $2000! Was happy about that! I was looking for a RX Liberty, however, it was about of my budget so I went for a 1994 Honda Integra VTI-R. This car caused me many problems, so I got rid of it only after 3 months. I was then looking for a Liberty again, but couldn't find a good deal so I ended up with a 2006 BF Ford Falcon Futura. It's a good car, but damn boring!!! I am now correcting all I have done wrong in terms of cars ! Basically, I'm in my final semester of Uni and for a graduation present im getting myself a MY07/08 Lib GT Spec B manual. I really miss manual cars so I can't wait to get this! I've been looking at many Liberty forums and reviews and the GT Spec B seems to be a great car. I have a meeting with Autopia (car lease place) who are going to formalize everything on Thursday. I've been offered a graduate position at HBOSA IT (Bankwest), so I should probly thank them for this. I will hopefully be in a new ride in December... so long to wait tho ! Perth-WRX seems to be a great community and I hope all of you are ready to accept another lib owner (American Dave... I LOVE your car!!!) Cheers guys, look forward to being more active Kyle |

$1700 is really steep! I worked out I could finance it and pay for all car costs for about $1500-$1600 a month. I will make sure that I budget a lot for 98RON Quote:
So far it looks like in three years time, I would have spent $5000-$10000 more if I get a liberty compared to keeping the Ford... excluding mods . However, I get a much nicer car which I will enjoy to drive |

hey i just got my lib gt about 3 wks ago and I LOVE IT, you have made a good choice, if you arent going to travel many KM don't get it leased, instead get a HP agreement with stratton finance.
i worked it out and mcmillan shakespere wanted to take out ~$1700 out of my pay cheque every month for the lease agreement based on a 2007 GTB for $40,000, and that would be probably 1/2 - > 2/3 of your graduate income.... take some time and do some sums first before you commit to the lease agreement. but its worth every dollar ive spent, but dear god it drinks a shitload of petrol!

Nice work with the graduate position and certainly a great choice in car if you follow through. Be careful with finance companies!

I spoke to Matt at Autopia and its all good
We spoke about budgets etc and it looks like I can quite easily manage. I just hope if Bankwest get bought out they don't decide to ditch the grads Anyways, time to look out for a car. So far have set up auto alerts on Carsales and Autotrader to email me when a Perth dealer gets a Manual Gen4 GT Spec B Liberty Under $50000 (which I hope to then get down to $44000 which is my budget). Also spoken to a guy at Subaru Osborne Park who said he will call me if one comes in, I highly doubt this though. I'm in no rush, however, I would like one before Christmas |
