The Queen · February 6, 2008

Nice idea Nismo and nice spots guys, keep them coming ;)

A few days ago I saw what looked like an S65 AMG on the road near my school!!! It had the badges on the side. I'm sure the front bodykit was shaped like the 65.

ShadowGT · February 6, 2008

I dont have any pics but my GF's neigbour is restoring a 1971 Ford Falcon XY (into a GT lookalike i think)

Looked just like this(same colour)

i've always liked the Falcon XY GT (when it was released it was the fastest 4 door car in the world)

Nige · February 6, 2008

lol what part of Brum are you from?

Well not technically Birmingham lol.

I live in the Black Country about 15 mins from Dudley and 15 mins from Brum city centre, so I just say Birmingham because most British people know here Brum is at lol :D.

Put it this way I see more of Birmingham (City or suburbs) than of the Black Country.

TDU 505 · February 7, 2008

hee my friend is gonna get a c63 amg nearing june july :D

what an -another word for donkey-

Who · February 7, 2008

i saw a black ferrari 355 in town yesterday

as per nige's comments, i doubt the people would mind teenage boys drooling and taking pics of their cars, if they didnt want the attention they wouldnt drive a car that sounds like the wrath of the gods and looks like its about to eat you.

The Queen · February 7, 2008

Lovely car you're GF's neighbour is restoring, I really like the look of those classic aussie cars! Black 355's are just sex in the city, too bad you never got a picture :(

Car Freak · February 8, 2008

A lime green Mini Moke (no doors, was quite funny to see), a silver MG TF (rare here) and a completely riced-out Mitsubishi Lancer (non-Evo) with a front bumper like a new GTR <YUCK!!>

Pherelas · February 8, 2008

Saw a 360 challange stradale yesterday. Loverly car, red with the crazy priced stripe over it.

eleKtro · February 8, 2008

CarMadMike · February 8, 2008

hesonly5 · February 8, 2008

No, that was a joke. He meant to say that ¬¬

DriftNismo · February 8, 2008

Saw an R34 GTR R-Tune with a japanese licence plate parked up today, i was really surprised, i didn't think any had been imported into England.

The Queen · February 9, 2008

Oh sorry you mean cars my bad :D:D:D

No your right. It's not just cars ;). Something that would be interesting to post. I hope to see that film soon as it looks good. The reviews for it are not very good but who trusts reviews ;)

eleKtro · February 9, 2008

No, that was a joke. He meant to say that ¬¬

At least someone saw the joke :D

I expected much more from it to be honest, not once through the film I was like " wow ". I was annoyed. The effects didn't look great either, the First Alien vs Predator was better in my honest opinion. Wish I saw Coverfield now, anyone seen that? If yes what you think of it? My mate told be it has a bad ending, * NO SPOILERS PLEASE! *
