NismoR34 Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 The Joss concept car would be worth a look - checkout web for whats on etc. I should be going this weekend...

prae Posted March 2, 2004 Author Share Posted March 2, 2004 Thanks alot, NismoR34 sounds like the FPV F6 is something to be reckoned with is it me, or does the Joss looks too much like the Nismo R390..

inark Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 r390/ferrari... didnt impress me much. nothing there really did... i took some pics... the only thing i saw that was reasonably worth a look was the SS-T Sidstep ute which i would assume is going into production for export to the US as the "Alcamino" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35431-melbourne-motorshow/#findComment-707420 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WazR32GTSt Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 there are 2 audi concept cars with twin-turbo V10's in them - worth a look, although one has no interior the other is mean. that 2-door camry is decent with its 2.4T engine. that would be sweet especially if they actually put that engine into the normal camry and made it 4wd also! hmmmm ok i'm dreaming a bit here now ford and holden stands were shit as usual. nissan stand STILL selling GTR items (even though they havn't sold the GTR here for about 10 years) - go figure. so why aren't they selling the bloody skyline here??? morons... i was just happy to go and sit in some cars like the integra/mx-5/monaro etc. which i read so much about yet never get teh cance to formulate my own opinions about. well now i have confirmed that most of them are shit. first hand experience is great isn't it. well worth a look.

Snowman Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 The best car by far was the Daihatsu Copen Tubro charged, intercooled - 50kw @ the fly! Man the intercooler is smaller than my oil cooler! The turbo must be the size of a pencil sharpener! Funny stuff.
