General Car Discussion

I used to see one of those in red quite a lot a few years ago in my town. The bootlid bugs me for some reason.

 

That new Toyota is too tall and it looks like it's trying to be an Alfa.

 

During Qualifying for Bathurst Chaz Mostert just had a massive crash, the Ford Performance Racing FGX is a mess

 

Video for anyone interested.

 

Nothing left of it (Dat Gen-2 VF tho)

 

I really want to watch the Bathurst 1000 this year. Anyway I can watch a live stream of it?

 

I'll have a look into that for you mate

Also:

Fun video, well done Tesla

 

Craig Lowndes & Steven Richards in the 888 Red Bull Racing Commodore have taken victory at Bathurst followed by Ford Performance Racing & HRT.

 

This 900 is just PERFECT.

 

Weird pipe thing that looks like a tow hitch that wouldn't be capable of functioning 0/10 Sweden disappointed.

Actually that does look really nice but seriously what is that tube thing

 

It's the tow hitch? Nothing weird about it.

 

I agree, It looks a bit weird imo

Then again I just hate tow hitches on nice cars

 

Yea, just a regular tow hitch that you see in cars like that, tho I usually see tow hitches made from square tubes but basically the same.

 

But look at the 'ball' on it, it's shaped more like a dildo than a tow ball, it could not work

 

Pretty sure its just a plastic cover.

 

Looked like steel to me, and I didn't think about covers because covers are stupid.

 

the grinding of any tow connection wears off any protection on the surface of the metal allowing rust to take hold. You should grease the ball and stick a cover on it after use.

 

Yea it definitely has a plastic cover.

Speaking of tow hitches, my dad's "new" Seat Leon ST has a removable hitch that comes throught the bottom of the bumper. It's ok but I hate how there isn't any cover for the hole so when the hitch isn't there, there is just an ugly hole under the bumper that you can see quite clearly from a distance. Our previous car (Seat Exeo ST) had a removable hitch as well but that attached behind the bumper. Otherwise it's a really great car.

 

Call me crazy, but this is one of the best looking Crown Vics I've ever laid my eyes on.

 

Any justification?
