B1oody Camry Sportivos with their p1ssy little 15" wheels and ride height measured in metres.

Efing Hyundai Excels.

I see lots of BA XR's absolutely everywhere I go, but I still haven't seen enough of them. Best looking car around IMHO. Saw a Rapid Typhoon today, would go for one of those if I had the dollars.

Cars with stockies on the back.

Why bother buying mags if you're not going to put them on the back too?

Do you buy half a set with a mate and share the mags?

Why not do what I'm doing with my stockies - stripping the ugly black paint and polishing them up - looks pretty neat.

Taragos

Anyone with a turbo car and a blow off valve who pump the accelerator while driving around a shopping centre car park so they get that "Tshhh" sound..

Commidores with Monaro lights

Bonnet scoops on anything that doesn't actually need one (Celica's, RAV4's, Hyaundai Excels)

P plates on cars more expensive than my house

Pathology couriers who think the 'Urgent Blood' sticker makes them above the law

Tata's - A Russian design but built in India - that says 'Quality' to me !!

FYI - XR's account for about 25% of Falcon production....there is heaps of 'em

NA BA XR's avoid hefty insurance premium that the Turbo's get slugged with.

Same idea as the Impreza RX - Same body kit and sports setup as WRX but without the Turbo.

You know what really grinds my gears...
White sports cars.

Seriously... if you're going to walk into a dealer with $50,000+ to spend on your new car - what would compel someone to say "all these metallic and shiny colours look great but I'll just take that one in white."

And what else ИИИИs me is people putting chevrolet badges on SSs... yes it's partly made in the U.S. of A, but are you going to deprive all those people working their *** off in Adelaide of seeing one of their pride and joy with a local badge on it.

I thought about putting some of ford's international badges on my falcon... we could go about acquiring a U.S., British or South African badge... but all the bastards look the same!

I like this thread... very good for releasing one's thoughts.

One of my neighbours just put Altezzas onto his white VT with the dark red boot insert plastics. Looks so stupid.

Hey Gmack, do you like the Marauder though? I think Nicholas Cage drove on in Matchstick Men.

I am a fan of the Mercury Marauder. It may be my next car purchase.
But insofar as the Mercury Grand Marquis. they are EVERYWHERE around these parts (Massachusetts, USA)
I donno I am just tired of seeing gramps in the far left lane going 55 MPH when I wanna go 65/70 MPH

Yer up here SUV's aka UAV's (Urban Assault Vehicles) are a major issue. I mean.. we have lots of people who live on dirt roads, or out bush, so they need a 4WD but they're usually the ones with a basic 4WD ute or Subaru wagon.. but then the people that live in the urban areas with sealed roads drive these big bloody off roaders that have never seen a grain of dirt in their life.

I'm sick of Subaru's. There are 6 houses in my street, 1 neighbour owns a B4 with a stupid wing, I think its a factory fitted blisten that goes back down to the bonnet in the centre, stupidest idea ever. Another neighbour has a mate with a WRX with a **** exhaust in it and they've obvouisly set the turbo timer or like 10 minutes or something so the bastard exhuast on it is idling there when he's not in it, everytime he comes him and his missus have got sunnies on even when its a bloody storm. Nothing against Subaru really, just what the owners are a pain in the ***.
