What's your favourite car doing the block?

Some people don't understand the meaning of tasteful cars...

im with you floody for tasteful rims to suit a car, along with bodykits and so forth.

[t01-100]

Floody - Yeah thought was was the case. This Coupe (french guard version) had Hyundai's own Alpha series engine... Don't for a moment think that I know this because I'm interested tho!!

Actually Stu, I'm not certain on the current generations of cars, but the first two generations of Excels used Hyundai manufactured, licensed variants of Mitsubishi motors. The S-coupe's have turbo mitsubishi motors, quite similar to the Lancer GSR's I'm lead to believe.

I think its funny all the boy racers drive around saying "do a burnout" or "out the highway" in there slow crappy cars.

Here's another nomination. Was at that Scottish restaurant in Rosny Park (Hobart) today - you know McDonalds! Saw an electric blue pulsar parked outside, big chromies, GTIR bonnet intake, body kit ( at least I think that's what it's meant to be) stickers etc etc. This car is someone's pride and joy but looked to me like a heap of gold chains on a hairy chest - bling bling! and fairly tasteless. Was this car at one stage an ET turbo or is it just a standard pulsar that someone has wasted thousands on?

Any magna with a bodykit, U know they actually have a club for those guys, One of there last outings was a trip to AMF bowling in Moonah!!!!!!!

I mean if your going out cruising, you dont go bloody bowling

and when they have finished bowling they probably go and play Dungeons & Dragons or re-format their hard drives!

Anyone in Launceston seen the loser who has just appeared in the white Camira? Every time I've seen him he's been blasting around and driving like a f*&^wit. Checkerplate where the back number plate goes, and it looks like he's either put a big radiator with flashy pipes or a FMIC on the front. Include the set of alloys and you've got a full on performance car!

What about just starting with a decent car?

Cheers.
