  1. Again not particularly new but surely this thread would be remiss if it didn't include some Rammstein - gotta love those crazy Chermans! Keine Lust - awesome clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytRQjrP4A0s
  2. Yep quite common, they replaced the ambient temperature sensor (which is in the passenger side external mirror) twice in mine. Mine was out 5-6 degrees I think. Would there perhaps be some moisture in there however? I know that it used to read MUCH lower for example after I'd washed the car but otherwise I'd be heading to the dealer
  3. There are quicker and cheaper Ferraris out there, and whilst money isn't typically a priority for a Fazza buyer, the 'others' aren't exactly cheap. That thing is YOO-GLY. If I woke up next to it and it was resting on my arm, I would chew my arm off so as not to wake it up.
  4. +1 for Zero... not a big Pumpkins fan but I do like that song Not particularly new but this song is the best song on an effing awesome album From about 3:40 onwards I start to get a bit firm and then at 4:35
  5. See you could have bought mine after all!
  6. I know I know... it's hard to get into a lot of new music (although I'm sure they're not actually new per se) when you're the only person in a house of 5 people (3 under the age of 14) that listens to this sorta music. That's why I love this thread so much! TBH I have A Sense of Purpose on in the car and lots of parts in lots of songs sound a touch like Wayne. In fact I even went so far as to look around the interwebs to see if he'd done any guest vox. You'll also forgive me if I'm a bit slow on the uptake with this one, but wrap your peepers around Maria Brink of In This Moment...
  7. And as I jumped on to youtube this was suggested to me, never heard of them but thought I'd give them a go I'm generally not big on female vocalists but I didn't mind this in first listen And before you ask, yes I'd hit it. Wawaweewa!
  8. Been listening to some of this stuff in the car Dillz... I Killed The Prom Queen, In Flames... Vocalist for In Flames kinda reminds me of a guy called Wayne... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMdZq1DU-40 I am liking Silent Civilian the most so far though
  9. Mine was June 08 build and the sensor was out, had it replaced. I would recommend running the AC at least once a week
  10. Got a G6ET for sale mate... tis a much better car!
  11. Don't believe EVERYTHING you read... http://www.hoax-slayer.com/mobile-phone-tips.shtml
  12. Wow... I thought we'd hit rock bottom but now we've started digging...
  13. This thread is fast becoming the Dumbest. Thread. Ever.
  14. we're not l33t enough tab! All this time us G-Spec owners thought we were better than the 'common' turbo owners we were clearly mistaken. If we cut out all the posturing boys the question is an inherently subjective one. My 2c is that I haven't noticed how bad it is ergo it really can't be that bad (nor that good by the same token). FWIW I'm a hairy bloke and so have plenty of insulation too!
  15. Is there an echo in here??!! (well, except I didn't say anything about the performance mode/lower gear)
  16. Uhh the FG has manual controls too... except they are still thermostatically governed, hence 'semi auto' Dunno about the Honda but surely if it has auto then likewise any manual override you use simply goes to semi auto? But we're getting off track I suspect, unless someone changed the topic to " How's the AC on a hot day compared to my girlfriend's Accord Euro that has manual controls"
  17. It's a cross between rocket science and brain surgery - I like to mix my metaphors Efficiency does not always mean fuel economy; consider the stress on the part itself of always being on If having something on 22 means it isn't cold enough, put it on 20! Just because the number is 20, who cares... it is about the level of comfort I now have a VW Jetta and setting it to 22 makes it cool, whereas in the Falcon 22 seemed warmer... at the end of the day the number is irrelevent, it is how you feel. I'd be shocked if you set it to LOW and it still wasn't cold enough on anything but a 45 degree day
  18. To be honest it sounds like you guys are pretty hard taskmasters! Maybe it isn't the best feature of the car but to be so scathing in your complaints??!! If you're hot, point the vents on you, then you'll feel cooler. We're not talking rocket surgery here guys. And the idea of wanting it to be permanently on - doesn't sound very efficient. Most modern technology aims to be efficient which means the very OPPOSITE of being permanently on I would have thought. Perhaps in WA it might be a different story as no doubt it is hotter in the mornings but for us (south-) Eastern seaboard folk, build a bridge I say. Surely the fact that any car costing more than $15k these days has automatic climate control suggests that manual control is a dinosaur
  19. I can honestly say in 2 years I have had no cause for complaint other than the stupid ambient temp gauge. Air con is fine. And my car is black!
  20. Now for sale folks (I hope this link works) Carsales
  21. If it's only $100 I can live with it, although I'd still be sh*tty just on principle
