Getting a new Car!

[Bahamut Zer0]

That's what he was going around at or the car maxxes at?

Dude the T.T is the most famous motor cycle race in the world. It happens on the Isle of Man and the circuit is round most of the islands roads. Many famous bikers have raced in the T.T. including multi winner Joey Dunlop.I'm sure u cud pick up a video about it somewhere as there sold throughout thw world.:cheers:
And i have to say the best thing about the T.T is if your good enough you can race in it. As long as you do well in the Grand Prix but thats a different story:D

[negomike]

The fastest I've ever driven in my car was 146mph
the fastest I've raced in it was 135 mph or so. :D

A combo of both. Its a friggen commodore folks, dont expect much.

[Slamo]

my car HAS done 170 kp/h trying to keep up with tweaky but i had no hope.

And what do you mean commodores don't stick to the road? they are a lot stickier than any falcon i have ever driven and my toyota doesn't stick to well either.

lol, maybe that's because your toyota is a 2.4L 4 banger.

The same year 3l V6 camry will keep up with a VT commodore ffs.

They are not sports cars, but, large sedans.

Tweak went backwards y'see.

At his age, you buy the zippy sports car, then when the missus & kids arrive you sell the sports car and buy the commodore. Else its 'you drive to fast with me & the kid in the car, youll kill us all you jerk' and so on.

So try-before-you-buy and get a woman who can drive herself around. You can then keep your sports car. :)

Then itll just be a matter of 'you spend too much on the car and dont spend enough time with me you jerk' to deal with.

[Mr.Tweak]

Tweak went backwards y'see.

Backwards? Who are you to say I went backwards... I have happened to like Commodores for a long time, so I brought a Commodore.

I tell you I'd rather be driving a reliable Aussie car then a souped up rice boy car.

And you cant tell me Holdens dont stick to the road, I havent even had it lowered yet and it takes corners at 200+ - sure it might bounce around a little but all cars do when you hit these speeds, it grips nicely for me.

[Mr.Tweak]

And before any of you critise me, remember these speeds are in the country on good, sealed, open roads I know well with very little other traffic.

I dont make a habbit of speeding whenever I drive!

I would be rather driving a nice euro car like a beautiful BMW M3 :) but you know that because I won't stop showing you pictures of them.

I can vouch for Cam here, his car sticks to the road very nicely. We had a nice little cruise today and yesterday in it.

The only reason it bounces around is because of the crappy *cough* country *cough* roads down here.

WOOOT WOOOT I like his car. He wont let me drive it unfortuntly :(

Perhaps not enough smileys in my post caused you to take me seriously.

But, please do get some facts about 'rice boy cars' before accusations go flying off left right and center. Not every jap import or jap designed car are 'rice boy' cars.

Damn straight about that, for all the people that continually call Jap cars "rice boy" cars I would suggest they read this over at OCAU.

Some people give Japanese cars a bad name by putting all their damn neon lights and **** all over them. A nice clean virtually stock Jap sports car would suit me fine, they look good, their interior is much superior to that of the Australian Commodore and Ford interior and they drive a lot better.


But each unto their own.

Acura Cl-S, 100% stock. Currently, looking for an aftermarket girl to go in the passenger seat. :D

Sorry about being a bit of a devils advocate, but as the scorpion said, it's in my nature.

Before flaming people who like to put all the weird stuff on their car consider that many people have a similar attitude towards computer modding.

Now, if they were really serious they should cover up those ugly windows. Maybe install Linux. And get a nice window put in so we could checkout their engine and maybe a neon radiator.. :rofl:

EDIT: Sorry about the poor grammar/spelling in the first edition.

lol, this thread.......


Let's just let Tweak have his fun in his new car, he is an obvious fan of Holden, and, he had the right to be so.

Congrats on the new car Tweak, hope it serves you well :thumb:
