Why cheap out? A short journey doesn't reduce the fine :P

Got it today.

Nah, have to admit the Commodore is hella lot more practical fitting more people and more luggage (with more weight).

There's more to life than who can get off the line faster in a straight line. I'd rather be in the Yaris if there was going to be an accident too.

Err... built to a budget? You sound like someone who has done a half assed attempt at studying economics and forget that the supply will shift in response to changes in demand. Anyway back on topic though, I know not to think too lowly of Yaris drivers. One of the workshops I frequent has a...

I have a Civic FD1 (aka current model Honda Civic) with the digital speedo and found it to be really good. Everyone thought digital speedos would be horrible because of the refresh rate and it would constantly flicker but it must have some kind of delay mechanism because it appears very fluid...

Agreed. You always need to take into account price and context/purpose when looking at these threads. I am presuming the previous poster picked the cars which he/she felt were the most weak in the looks or manliness/muscle department. But other than that, the Yaris is actually a decent car. I...

I think we need to define what thrash, fang, hoon, floored, gunned, etc... mean. They aren't all the same!

With a bullet in his head =D

Haha... I figured to make this forum more interesting and to hear general public views and comments on a car, I'd start doing regular random car threads on "Rate this". Could be interesting. Rate this: 2009 Mazda 3 MPS For those who don't know what it looks like, here's a pic...

Wrong thread then. That's a Vee Eight isn't it? It's a beaut car though.

LOL thanks mate. I thrashed a Proton Gen2 and that brought a smile to my face. There's something fun about doing it in a cheap and nasty car... wringing out the engine and pushing the (limited) chassis to the limits on the dirt. Got the stupid little bugger upto some high speeds on the highway...

... was it a steel bodied yacht? jkjk. Which SLK (gen/engine CC)?

Call me a sicko but I love thrashing the brakes on cars... there's something satisfying about being decelerated from crazy speeds. Especially on a car which can handle well. Ask anyone who's asked me for a 'technical demonstration' of my driving and the general comments relate to 'nice brakes'...

I wonder if anyone will post up an XR6T (i.e. 6 cylinder turbo) thread. Hmm.

Anything with triple figures at the wheels is pretty decent nowadays. Always makes me LOL when kids brag about their modified 140kW whatever and then on the dyno it pumps out <100.

Can't believe I started a trend :) But the V12 still sounds the best... really does sound and feel like you're the king of the road when it's roaring.

Was it a Ralliart Colt? :P And I learnt to drive on an awesome Daihatsu Terios 1.3L. :) Fully sick body roll yo.

Dude, did you just crawl out of some hole after finishing the HSC, and come onto BoS and randomly make cracks at every person you can find? Kids these days... no respect.

That is actually quite a decent amount of power compared to the usual Yaris, Getz, Jazz, etc :) ... none of which have anything to do with this thread.
