Australians - Tell us about yourself

i worked with administrators to get this section up and running so here’s my bit. Tell us what part of Oz you live in, and about your car.

I live in sunny, and hot Perth. Flight instructor by trade, previous careers... night club dj and marketing. 55 and not out yet !

I'm based in Melbourne and have Ordered Hichroma Red GT 3.3L on 29th of Nov. and have no firm commitment from KiaAu on when it's coming. Currently driving my wife's 6-speed manual VW Golf GTI most days as she got my VW Touareg to ferry the kids around. Its not a bad car, but annoying to change gears all the time on the daily drive to the city. Cannot wait for the adaptive cruise control and 8 speed!

This will be my first ever new from factory car.

While I'm not waiting for the Stinger I work for an American software company in sales and I'm 36. Outside of work most of my time is taken up with my family which includes two daughters ages 2 and 3. Unfortunately, my wife is the same age as me

Hi All, I'm based in Newcastle and my red stinger GT is my first ever brand new car and indeed first ever turbo and rear wheel drive car. Made sure I went the whole hog! I am 38 and have two young children, whilst the family car is a CX5 I have also put some baby seats in the stinger! Couldn't be happier with the car thus far.

Gday all
Im in Perth, took delivery of white GT last night. Yes smiles all round. Over family dinner Sunday night the family reckon id gone mad, couldn't understand why id trade the Audi for a KIA. At the time I said its all about the car and wait n see.. Well they couldn't believe it, everything from exterior look, inside finish to the all important drive....As part of the younger generation they snapped a pic and shared all over the place.
Initial impressions are very very good.
Look forward to seeing a few more about, but not too many.

Cheers
