you live in the wrong state haha could drive V8s on P plates and already have full licence at 19 :P The new model looks good tho :) |
|
|
Yeah NSW is shit its the only state that you cant drive V8's on your P's its not fair lol |
|

 |
You're limited the size of the engine you can drive based on your age and license? WTF..... I was driving a V8 in high school at 16..... |
 |
|
 |
Hahaha, it's actually a really nice car. |
|
|
And NOS, you're lucky. In the Netherlands, when you're 16, you're allowed to ride a 50cc moped, limited to 45 kph :) |
|
|
USA FTW! V8 at 16. Unlimited miles per hour! :D |
|
|
Yeah it's shit as Nos haha the laws use too be like what you said but it all changed because too many hopeless young cunts were killing themselves in V8's :P |
|
|
Hahahaha |

Seriously, too many people just keep living. Where's natural selection? If you're born a zebra, and you suck at it, you get eaten by lions. Where are our predators? More cilinders! Less safety belts! And maybe a big metal spike sticking out the steering wheel. That should weed out the stupid. Anyway, back to the subject; doesn't it affect handling and milage a lot, that whirlpool in the back? It may sound like a fun idea on paper, but just doesn't seem practical.. |
|
|
Do you mean the tray of the ute? It affects the handling a lot yea cause there's no weight in the ass end of the car |
|
|
Put a couple of huge pavers in the back, that'll help |
|
|
Oh it's not a pool? Just an empty space? Disappoint.. |
|
|
Actually, Jans just sparked an idea. TURN IT INTO A POOL :O |
 |
Pretty much looks like the G8 truck version, but off course not rebadged to Pontiac since it doesn't exist anymore. |
|
|
jan's. has been done before. pool in said empty place |
|

|
^That's really sad. Also, with my V8 and gas prices what they are now I walk/ride a bike a lot these days. |
|
|
Hahaha ive seen that pic of the pool in the back :P there was another one they had it full of ice and beer :P big Esky. Nos, fuel prices here in Aus are $1.58 a Litre :/ thats what you called fucked up |
|
|
Yea? Try €1.80 (2.40 au$) |
|
|
what per Litre? :O or the gallen or watever it is you odd countrys use :P |
|
|
Litre of course. Metric system ftw. |

this tread is almost as interesting as the croatian threads ... |
 |
fuck you leslie :D also, while v8 is nice, i was forced to take diesel so went with bmw 330D, inline six, but ridiculously low consumption for the punch it gives. also, this "truck" looks ridiculous |
|
|
Omgggg it's a ute Number Two not a truck :P and it looks mighty fine :P it's what you call a true Aussie car ;) |

Highest & Cheapest Gas Prices by Country Top 9
10: Denmark - Price per gallon of gasoline: $8.22 From February but I doubt they've fluctuated all that much. Maybe a few cents. Source Guess I can't complain all that much.....Though I'd sell my truck if I lived in a different country. |
|
|
Flucuate plenty. US, at least the midwest is up more than a dollar from these numbers. Just a quick google: http://www.usatoday.com/story/driveon/2013/05/23/midwest-gasoline-gas-prices/2356047/ 4.19 ish around here. Course.. if you get the good stuff it's more, and not the usual 10c jump each grade either, that's been out the window years ago since gas prices have been all willy-nilly while public is at their mercy. |
 |
Why I'm not surprised to see Portugal in top 10?... |
|
<Storage>
|
That's the USA average Trio. Might be a little more expensive in certain places. It's 3.85 here. Like I said it's a couple months old. |
 |
Honestly, unless you live on a farm these fucking things are the Australian (and NZ) equivalent of whatever car you buy in other countries when you have ; a: a small penis. b: anger issues. c: a small penis and anger issues. Even if you live on a farm they are pretty useless. I see these things in the middle of the city and LOL my arse off at the idiots driving them. |
|
|
thats funny mate because they havent evan came out yet... so the lol is on you. They dont get released until July / Augaust |
|
|
im pretty sure DNM means the general type of half car / half bathtub :) |
|
|
Too true, hahaha |
|

|
Yeah, The car/truck looking vehicle is quite stupid looking. El Camino anyone.... |
|
|
Jerry that is a yank car :P , the car I'm buying is made with spanners not chop sticks haha |
|
|
You know Holden is owned by General Motors, right? |
|
|
Yeah but Holden is an Australian car, well I'm nearly 100% sure it is anyway :P |
|
|
Aussie car, made by aussies, bought by aussies - and then those aussie dollars go to the united yankees. |
|
|
I don't care where the money goes as long as I get my car :P |
|
|
This specific type isn't out yet? Fuck I must not be able to read! Like Jans said I meant Commodore/Falcon utes in general. Your reply proves my point, only $%@&#^(*@'s buy these pointless machines. |
|
|
I'm sorry that you can't afford a nice car and have too drive around a bucket of shit mate ^_^ |
