If its street car i think you need to put Toyota and Honda on there as well. But either way Pontiac is my choice
 
I've always been partial to Pontiacs, well before Craven started driving them.

:salute: :bleh: chevy
:cheers:


:bleh: on Imports that try to make themselves sound and look fast.

Oh yeah, it doesn't work.
 
Overall you have to go with chevy. What does ford have that chevy doesn't? The corvette is the king. What else in its class or the classes aroundit even comes close to its hp per dollar factor? Probally the Camaro is pretty close to it, and for years now all the mustang sees of the camaro is exaust. Allright, I won't ge tworked up over this, just stating a reason why I like chevy. Ford is marketing gods, they know how to sell em thats for sure. Truck wise, I think they all kick arse! Gotta love the 7.3 power stroke, gotta love the new duramax. Point is there is little difference between, really it comes down to what appeals to you. Pontiacs I consider the same thing as a chevy, they all come from the general. We got a Grand Prix GTP and I would be that you could change body panels and make it an Impala or a Buick regal. Whatever, as long as its :salute:

As for the imports, its all good. Can't call it hotrodding when speaker perforamce and style is more looked upon than driveline performance, but its good for motorsports. I say bring em on! if they want to spend the money of them, then more power to them. Nimble as they come and they defintly got tech going for them. I do laugh because its gotten so big that people are doing things to cars that shouldm't have them done, :lol:

So you think thats the new 2004/5 Ford Taurus?
nope, thats a ford falcon. Its a great looking car if you ask me. Clean lines, semi agressive look. Ford should replace that with the tarus.

ummm...sorry guys you're both wrong...that's the brand spanking new Ford GT. :D

A Ford Falcon is a base model Ford...still great looking...then there is the XR models...XR 6, XR 6 Turbo and XR 8. (all very, very yummy!)

Ford Australia basically has nothing to do with America, besides things we get from them like the Boss 290 motor and the Jag gear box...etc

Even as amazing as they look and how powerful they are, Ford was lucky this year that Holden really came out with a crappily designed car! (Holden is owned by GM)

BTW, you'll American should put in order for these GT s, they are just too amazing!! And I'm sure we wouldn't mind exporting them...we are big enough...and besides...it would really stick it up those crappy Holdens! :p

yeah thats right, is the falcon just for race puprose and the GT is its street name? without the race cosmetics it looks to be the same sweet car that it is.

Crappy Holdens eh? phffft! :) We get the new Pontiac GTO in a year or two, which as your probally know is based of the Holden. Smooth and sleek, with pontiac's agressive style to flare it off, oh yeah B)

Nope...Falcon is a BASE MODEL, ummm...just a standard car, you know then they just get modified a little (CD player, cruise control, all those goodies) to say a Fairmont, Fairmont Ghia. Then like I said the XR models...now the GT is very, very special. It's part of the FPV, Ford Performance Vehicles. I guess you can KINDA say they are a modified Falcon, but it’s kind of a put down to such a great car. www.ford.com.au www.fpv.com.au Have a visit, I'm sure you'll be very surprised at the huge range.

Pontiac are welcome to have any crappy Holden, Holden off sping, you'll want! Although I must say that particual GTO looks pretty good.
Here is a Holden SV8, as you can tell not as nice lines as the BA and they took a few notes from Mitsubishi :lol:

If you actually want a good lookin' Holden...got to www.holden.com and click on Monaro...HUBBA HUBBA!! Or have a look around www.hsv.com.au
