Best all out performance car I've driven (braking, handling, power, comfort etc) is my old mans blown 370rwkw CV8 Monaro with huge HSV Premium brakes on it. The car is an absolute animal and stops on a dime.

Best handling car i've driven is my mates 370Z, was extremely impressed with the handling of it.

Best thing I have sat in is a Ferrari 599 in Sydney. Sitting in something worth more than our house was definetely an experience.

Hoping to do a Supercar drive day in Brisbane for my birthday next year so will finally get to drive some Ferrari's and Lambo's to see what all the fuss is about :D

well its titled "best car YOU have driven" but for all we know there are people on here that are including cars they have "driven" via playstation or Xbox

speaking from experience?

Which exotic are you bringing to wakefield?

Bobby - hahaha that was like me when I drove the race car in Dubai, I had a throbbing monster for a week!!

I wouldn't feel so bad about that, I absolutely love my car and I haven't even driven it this year :D

Its not a bad thing. The 33 is great to drive. But I would love to have a whirl in an exotic or any 100k+ euro. (even just to putt around town at 50km/h).

My rebuilt porsche 911 c2, its a totally different car to drive compared to anything else on the road , heres a pic , also been lucky enough to drive a R35

lol, Chubbeh had a chubby.

Seriously though, i found the straights a bit boring, but fark me cornering in an open wheeler is just insane, had the biggest bruises on the sides of my knees for ages. It was at OP as well, and the dog leg was just epic.

Dude, you has pics of tearing sh!t up in Dubai?

Stu, aren't the TVR's teh cars they call the widowmakers? Did you get a chance to give it a squirt or was it a cruisy drive?

ahh yeah my favourite is my stagea too....perfect street car.

clse 2nd is my old 200b. wonder where that got to. dan better not have sent it to simmsmetal. maybe its time for my 3rd ownership of that car.

Some of you may know those plates too..

porsche_911_turbo_le.jpg

Not the same car but this 911 Turbo LE was one of the nicest sounding, pleasurable cars to drive. The rx7 just hits warp speed and deafens ears. 1/500 in Race spec every made. It was offered to me for sale after I bought the RX7 .. It hurt to say no

P.S in regards to above.. This is a widow maker

only games I play are first person shooters on pc, I hate car games there stupid and unrealistic.

And i'd only take an exotic to wakey if insurance covers it, not worth loosing half the cost of a house

Was the 911 made in first production 1964? I cant find much mention of the 994 GT2 but fairly certain the Merc was made well before that. They invented "sports" in sports cars as they crushed the Italians hands down when they built this car. It was made in the 1950s

"Mercedes 300SL was the first successful super car built in the year 1954. It has 2 seats with gull wing doors. It is the most refined and most Inspirational sport car of our era. It's fuel injected 3 litre produced over 240bhp giving a claimed top speed of 165mph. They also named it "Widow maker" since many male driver died crashing their 300SL."

To back it up .. some useless top gear mention

I only know it because that bodystyling is timeless, way before its time..

And everybody has forgotten to metion the fact a good example of these things easily passes the 1 million AUD price range. I remeber watching an episode of foxtel about the History of Mercedes, this thing has been stuck in my head ever since.

ANd aparently the ride and performance is better than the average 1980's car (so people have said)????? Either way they look awesome.

mm best standard road car prob f430 scuderia,

but nothing has compared to my 34 gtr b4 i sold it to my brother 470awkw t51r rb30 with everything, no lag and was just crazy on the street, stil prob the ultimate car until i finish my 32! which is pretty much the same shit but better :( dry sump, 380mm AP's, carbon interior and lots of carbon!

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
