Nice Woodsy. Just curious, what do you do? If it's not too personal.

must say nice wish list car for a 20 yr old & female @ that. I'd love the landau version myself
Oh the joys of being young with expendiable income & stuff all commitments. Days of having toys again getting closer & closer as 1x1 our children become independant. But for now I'm happy with the housebus & lil ford runabout.
Not too personal at all. I'm a retail manager of a Priceline, after being a specialist in cosmetics/skincare. Although I just went for a job interview in banking this arvo! Fingers crossed for career progression! lol.
LOL yeh I get that a lot! Yesterday at the servo I had a girl my age ask me what my number plate meant.. I spent 5 mins explaining what a kilowatt is.. it made me a bit sad on the inside! Everyone should know..

Awesome! Makes me want to give up on uni and get a full time job.... I want a fast rig
lol, I remember the ads on tv "KILLER WASPS!?"
Yeah, everyone should know what a KW is. My GF hates fast cars, though. She spent $1000 on a hand bag and can't see the value in a 20k R34 :s

Haha nah stick with uni. Once you're done you'll be able to get one & you'll have a degree or whatever under your belt too. That V8 takes up a LOT of money; it's hard to justify having it but I do love it. Every time I drive it I know why. However.. $110 at the servo is no fun. That car is actually the main reason I'm looking for another job, I need more $$ for it LOL.. Usually with people they'll change their car for their job but oh well.
I could also spend 1g on a handbag though... or maybe some shoes? I think I'm just terrible all round ha

it all depends on what you want to do with the power too, power will give you speen and top end but if you want a pick up better than speed isnt it better to build a engine full of torque,( and better for the motor )

Yeah well that's the point mate, you have to think about what you're going to be using the car for, and then build it to work. I'd prefer a mix of bottom and top end, but torque can be lots of fun
it's all in the gearing, too.How many K's are you gunna put on it before you give it a thrash? 1000? Nice ute mate.

I can KIND OF understand why someone has a chev badge if they have an LS engine in their commo.... But people with SV6's or even omega's with chev badges **** me. They have no shame!!!
Lol no shame! I reckon But it's not even a Chev engine, they're produced entirely by GM, Chev haven't made their own engine in years. LS's are used in caddis, pontiacs as well so it's silly. & the v6's are sold as a Chev in the middle east which is a lot of peoples argument too I guess. But I still just don't get it... Why do people not like the holden badge lol!
