Chriselle 158 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I had one of these in my younger days. Hell of a lot of fun off-road. You just made my tongue hard. That happens every time I see a 40 series. Just thought you'd like to know... Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Maybe I have a "scale of dreams" problem. Mine only cost 3 million for the car in decent nick and 2 million for the garage, not 40-50 million for a Lambo and however much a warehouse costs! For those who don't know, the Fairlady Z is basically a made in Japan E type Jag. Super iconic. :wub: Old Fairladys are indeed iconic. To me they look like another one of my favorite cars... a (pure sex) '67 Miura.... Jags always seemed a little too James Bond for me. Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 There are a disproportionately large number of Cruiserheads in Hokkaido. A lot of 40, 70 and of course 80 series owners. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I have a new love. The McLaren 12C. They were racing and reviewing it on Top Gear USA. Wow that is a seriously sexy piece of machinery and bloody quick. I want to drive it. Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Anything McLaren is sexy as... better get out there and sell some more veggies Snowdude if you want one of those.. BTW....what do think of the US Top Gear? Three morons as far as I'm concerned. Did you happen to catch the recent episode comparing the Jeep, FJ, and Disco...? So..baaaaaad.

snowdude 44 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I must say at the start I didnt like those three much much prefer the British Top gear but now I am used to them and well some of the stuff they do is stupid but funny. And they tend to review the big American trucks which I like and more exotic cars than the UK version. So yeah I reckon its not too bad at least I get to see some serious machinery which I can only but dream about driving. Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Mclaren have said they'll only make hybrids from now on, so that's one in the eye for UK Top Gear. Link to post Share on other sites

ug 0 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Never got why that was apparently so popular. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 It is popular because of Jeremy Clarkson he made Top Gear popular. He is really good at presenting and not afraid to speak his mind. I remember when Top Gear first came out and he did the car reviews by himself it was more serious in them days now its moree for fun and actually some of the stuff they do isvreally funny. Jeremy carries the show but his two side kicks dumbo and rat help make it more fun. The one where they came to Japan was an interesting episode. And the one where they were in Vietnam was a whole lot of fun. As to was when they went to Germany to challenge the German version of Topgear presenters. But then I am a bit of a petrol head so I would find these type of shows interesting. Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Nah... I love the original UK Top Gear. They are goofy but the humor is less in your face than the US version. The English accent always makes you guys "sound" more refined and smarter than us clod like North Americans. I have a friend who is installing every season on a hard disk for me right now.

big-will 7 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Sometimes it goes over the top, as in the funny aspect losing out. Offensive even. Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Speaking of "Top Gear"... I did some work on the Terios Kid today. 2 inch lift, chopped the front and rear bumpers and put on some bigger (much bigger) tires. Just waiting for a Jimny skid plate and front tube bumper to arrive. It's pretty much offroad ready now though. Fun little guy. Link to post Share on other sites
