@faulcon1 HOLDEN IS AUSTRALIAN!!! AUSSIE MADE AUSSIE DESIGNED ESPECIALLY SOME OF THERE SIXES AND V8 ENGINES!!! SO IS FORD AUSTRALIA.. AUSSIE MADE AUSSIE DESIGNED EXCEPT FOR THE ENGINE BLOCK BUT EVERY OTHER PART IS AUSSIE MADE AUSSIE DESIGNED.. THEY DON'T HAVE CARS LIKE OURS ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD UNLESS WE EXPORT THEM AT LIMITED NUMBERS..THEY OUR OUR CARS :-) :-)

[MrSelector1]

FALCON OR COMMODORE i don't care WHICH ONE I DRIVE!!!!! AS LONG AS ITS AUSSIE MADE AUSSIE DESIGNED THEN I WILL DRIVE IT... DON'T LIKE EURO CRAP YOU CAN HAVE YOUR BORING BMWS AND SHITTY ALFAS... AUSSIE CARS ARE MORE SUPERIOR! DON'T LIKE JAP CRAP CAUSE AUSSIE CARS SOUND LIKE THUNDER AND GO LIKE LIGHTING! DON'T LIKE AMERICAN TRASH AND AMERICANS DROOL OVER WHAT WE MAKE AND WISH THEY HAD OUR CARS THERE... MY OPINION IS AUSTRALIA BUILDS BETTER AND FOR A FAIR PRICE!

[faulcon1]

Ford has always been the underdog in Australia with Holden fans claiming that Holden IS Australia's home grown car. But GMH is the Australian arm of an American company, just as Ford Australia is the Australian arm of Ford US. If GM global went bust and they nearly did good bye Holden. However Ford US didn't almost go bust because of their thrifty ways. I own a Ford and would NEVER own a Holden.

I just don't understand people, is 98% of the population morons, i just dont get it. Holden dickheads, why cant you just give up and realize fords are better, turboed 6's are better.

@coastalmotocrossclub All i have right now is an old zzr 1100. Still quite quick though , especialy for a 20 year old machine. Ive had newer, quicker bikes but this one does the job for me now that i've stopped being a crazy idiot on them lol.

[coastalmotocrossclub]

@Antifaith29 Yes, i know , i did own a Hayabusa but thought of my life & sold it ..lol.. but as far as Bang for Buck in cars go , the F6 i have now was $18,000 less than a GTS , $12,000 less than a Clubby & about $5,000 more than a GTP. The Busa was $8,500 & was capable of 9sec 1/4 mile & 340 km/h top speed (never did that tho..lol)

@billybodybuilder Bang for buck? I know it's not everyones cup of tea but in my opinion the best bang for your bucks is a decent sports bike. Quicker than almost everything else on the road for a fraction of the price.

[billybodybuilder]

@Antifaith29 And you will see ( in my expert commentary.lol ) that i do not knock any of the V8's i had in the past.

My next car may well be a V8 again, will test drive FPV GT 335 ,HSV GTS 325 etc , weigh up the "Bang for Buck" Equation , then sign the paperwork..lol

[Antifaith29]

@billybodybuilder Yup, agreed 100%. Btw, nice vids, ive spent the last 20 mins checking your uploads lol
