Flukey

Nice one Marcus. I'll keep an eye out for it.

The other thing too, is those figures for the T and G6ET are 911 quick, from the factory. How cool is that?

Did Wheels independnatly test the G6ET? A 5.1 from Wheels is a belter and means that MOTOR could run a 5.0 or better. These are seriously quick cars and I can see the BFYB crown again being held by the T

Top idea. C'mon Pat, what else have you got to do?

I wont flash to warn of a booze bus, but for everything else I will.

Hawks won tonight. Undefeated after 5 games.

The single one thing I looooved about my old T was its ability to step out on command. It was so predictable, so manageable, so enjoyable. There goes the fun factor

LSD in the G6ET Pat?

Thinking about it, it is probably a bit unrealistic to expect. It does need to be substantiated because it could be just a Ford fan stirring up the LS1 boys.

Surely not 4.7? It cant be that good. Can it?

Good review. I am certainly keen to drive one.

Congrats to all involved. Awesome result.

Video here See if this link works.

I saw the left hook. It was pretty impressive. So it sounds like a 4-6 week suspension wont matter much now.

Really. What stage of the game did he get injured?

Agree. My point was dont borrow 100% because chances are you cant afford any negative change in the economy.

I would never ever recommend someone finance 100% of their home. That is a good example of what has happened in the US. People have borrowed 100% of the value of their homes, expecting they would be OK, but along came a recession. Many people losing their homes, and the sale value not matching what is owed on the property. In the US people dont go bankrupt and can effectively walk away from a failed purchase. In Oz, it can haunt you for years. Easy for me to say I know because my debt is only 30% of my home value and easily managed. I agree for young people buying into the market today it would be terrifying. If you are deperate to buy a home, look at Melton or some of the outer suburbs.

Impressive Dan

Sounds about right Great Shazza

I was last in this thread on May 21, 2007. Have I missed anything?

Interesting to note that report is published by the US govt. Of all govt's world wide, they have been arguing more strongly against inititives to reduce the effects of "global warming" because of the fear of what it will do to their economy. So, my view is I believe little of what comes out of the US because they are the most selfish country on the planet and the largest producer of propoganda. Not saying I agree or disagree, just I take with a grain of salt what the Yanks say. Secondly, the planet is a farking toilet. A little house keeping wouldnt hurt.

Very good point. I would expect the G6ET to be heavier than the T as well, so likely a little slower.

Doesnt eBay own or have an interest in PayPal? I thought they were effectively one and the same.

The benefit of home ownership has been proven in the last 10 years. My last place I bought for $162K in 1996. I sold 18 months ago for $425k, so the cpaital improvement easily covered the mortgage and interest paid over that period. If you do rent, the captal improvement is made by the landlord, not you. Now, we have had a really good run in terms of the economy for over 20 years. I am not sure it can continue as it has been.
