When pimping the 300C, don't forget the inch thick armour glass for that true Mafia car look :lol:

Might be a change of plans, took a bunch of turbos out for a drive on the weekend and had my mind blown by the most unexpected of the lot.

The RA is possibly one of the smoothest rides that I've test-driven, paddle shift in sports mode is seamless! The MPS looks great inside and out but really just is not the greatest car to drive. The last thing i took for a spin was the Ford XR6T... and oooooh DAMN. Raw and ridiculous! Move over 300C i think Ford have finally made a car I like

:D

Someone hurry up and buy my car so I can get one!

The new FG or a second hand BF?? Have been in both. The new model definitely has it over the olds.

If you like big cars, take a HSV for a spin. The clubby's aren't that bad and doesn't feel like a big car.

Its the new shape, I'm not 100% sure what the model name is though. Are the HSV's turbo though?

Two words mate - WALKINSHAW SUPERCHARGER

Hear the engine whine as you drive it along. Sounds awesome - Top gear UK had a review on it. Check it out on you-tube

Oh good, I'll go check it out. Gives me an excuse to test drive more cars this weekend!

The supercharger is an add on to a regular HSV. Costs around 15 grand but its just a bolt on. You can get a 2006 model ve clubby for around 37k so you can have plenty of money to mod it. I don't mind the E2 new model, but its just a face lift to an already out-dated car.

Check out the new FPV's for sale as well. Its Ford, but to the max!!

Yeah I took a look at the F6 when I was at the dealer but for $20k+ it seemed a bit much for a small gain in power, I'd be better off getting a good ECU tune and exhaust for the extra grunt

Thats the whole point of FPV/HSV. Its all about bogan street cred. Sure you can have a hotted up SS or XR8, but people still say 'its just an SS'

If you take out the whole race track thing and just think about street driving/cruising - why would anyone spend $70k for an evo over a $40k Ralliart with a $5k upgrade to same/more power. Street cred of owning an evo. Nothing more, and its the same with HSV's and FPV's. (Wouldn't get a FPV, but would get an E2 clubby.

Also, go to our nemesis Subaru and check out the new Liberty. They have softened the look, but the old model was quite a nice ride, and you can get them STI tuned with plenty of power.

Drive everything you can get your hands on. Try a H3 hummer as well, just to say you drove one!!

haha yeah I get what you mean. I don't think i'd need the HSV/FPV then, even in one of those my bogan cred would be zero haha I'd have the only JDM styled ford

I haven't checked out Subaru yet, I've still got plenty of dealers to go see. Test driving is awesome fun, well worth taking a weekend to go see how many cars you can drive, even if you have no intention of buying!

RA and Evo are totally different beasts...

Yes you can get as much power out of an RA, but it will never be anything like an Evo.

get the new look holden SSV (G8) and ask for the WALKINSHAW perfomance pack it makes it 1KW less than the new E2 hsv and about $18000+ cheaper my dad ordered his and goes like a dream
