Noiiicceee

I have a VY as well but a Berlina. How much did that thing set you back?

[iKlipse]

Cheers, piggus :p although HSV (holden special vehicles) dont import internationally, I'm pretty sure but i could be wrong. The engine however is a 5.7L LS1, the same engine used in a Chevrolet Corvette C5. Even used in the camaro z28 and SS.

Very quick and easy for additions. But 350hp is enough for me as I just moved from a 3.8L v6 that was built in 1988 and barely reached the 200hp mark.

@sash i got it for $19,150.

[Piggus]

I was wrong... It's the Pontiac GXP here. ;p

It's not an import but rather the same car just built here. Holden and Pontiac are both owned by GM.

[iKlipse]

Yeah but thats the VE model of Holden. Mines the VY :p

[Clayton]

That Holden is sexy. So much better looking than the G6. And yeah, Pontiac is no more.

I finally got my old-school red hot rod steel rims I've always wanted!



Now...Whether or not to get Baby Moon hubcaps. Hmmm....

how do drove car

[Clayton]

Christ, Scott. Please avoid killing yourself.

Plus, keep driving like that and I'll never sell you my truck

[phreak]

love all the little micro cars you guys have, we need more of those here.

[Piggus]

I agree. I love the Fiat 500 especiialy. My mom really wants one too. :p

And lol @ scott. I'm glad you weren't killed but your recklessness is gonna get you there eventually if you're not more careful.

[rappo]

god i hate the fiat 500 that they imported to america. it's like they gave an old mini cooper a wedgie.
i like compact eurocars too, but not that one

[Piggus]

I would argue that it's the other way around. The original Fiat 500...



.... Was around a few years before the Mini Cooper was first unveiled.

[rappo]

i dont give a shit about your logic and facts! i dont like it!

[Piggus]

>_<

The Mini Cooper is still pretty sweet. Surprisingly roomy and for a car that's basically German, the interior is cool. I'd rather have an Italian car than a German car though tbh. Italian cars always have weird little things about them that you just don't get elsewhere.

I almost bought an '06 Audi A4 off my mum but the jerk ended up getting a shit deal on the trade in instead. I loved that car But oh wells.
