Nice that you guys trust each other not to just go on www.wikipedia.com and find amazing facts

Ehh.. stuff that. They give you information about invisible cars like the 1994 Porsche re-build that won the famous LeMans race... pointless information if I must say. Well, I knew before hand. xD That's like the world's fastest car... apparently ... oh but hey, I just found a movie with a faster car. >.>;

I no nothing of cars lol. Except the Mitsubishi Warrior is my favourite lol
Got any info on that car?

LuzTeTT · 05-07-2007, 04:25 PM

Is it new? Most of the cars we talk about are all in a generation ... 1989 - 1999. Well, something like that. I don't take too kindly to modern cars.

What the heck is it, anyway? O.o; I've heard of Nissan Patrol but this? O___o;

Wii_Smurf · 05-07-2007, 04:30 PM

Fact #5 - The new Toyota Tundra is redesigned for 2007 w/ a new grille, more cubic room and a chassis redesign.

(sorry for delay, was @ school).

Fact #6: Puegot is now building a 4 door sports car which is designed to beat the Audi R10, they current Le Mans champion. The Peugot was originally released at the Paris Auto Show.

EDIT: @wii_smurf: The Warrior still looks like a concept or maybe even a prototype.

Fact #10 - Here in Australia us car enthuiasts don't usually bother with American cars. Reasons?

-According to my Australian friends, American cars have poor suspension design and can barely make turns. A fuss to drive.
