Yer there is :

The only car reasonably available for you to drive is a high-powered (performance) vehicle and at least one of the following circumstances applies:

-it was owned by you on 30 June 2007 and is still owned by you
-it is owned or leased by a member of your immediate family
-it is in the possession of an immediate family member provided under an employment or salary package.

Only if "The only car reasonably available for you to drive is a high-powered (performance) vehicle" as well as being owned by your dad

The exemption cert. can be loopholed like crazy..

I have a friend that drives a V8 ute and another that drives a V8 Soarer after they just got it exempted. Just gotta make up some reason that goes within the lines of what was pointed out above, and you're set. ;-;

Kiddies stop wondering about this by the time you go through the process in NSW you would be off your P plates anyway

A ralliart is not a high power vehicle... And a Soarer is not fast, they weigh heaps.

And I like how you need to apply to drive something like a 1.6T cruze, but its fine to drive an S2000, or a NA lotus or something.

There should just be a power-to-weight rule and then there could be a list of forbidden cars, like how there is with motorbikes.

And is it really just 'can't be turbocharged'? So supercharged doesn't matter? Because turbochargers are a subset of supercharging, not the other way around.

Sorry, I guess I'm not contributing anything :P

Oh Im not getting a Ralliart or anything like that, I was just looking at the regulations for your P's/high-powered (performance) vehicle and just sort of thought I would ask to See if anyone on here applied for a exemption or knows if it is or not because personally I thought it might be possibility but yer looks like know one knows or have tried it before.

My understanding of exemptions is that they can be applied for if your car is turbo/supercharged for economy reasons, like the Golf TSI, Cruze iTi, etc. But really, this high-powered rule is absolute rubbish. Many P-platers still drive like they own the world, too overwhelmed to get a licence and thinking that he or she can do whatever he or she wants. Restricting them to cars with less power is hardly a solution. Proper training and discipline need to be employed to make them sensible drivers while they are still young. We have much to learn from Germany and Finland.
