    The DeLorean DMC-12.

    Yeah, it may be an unreliable, slow, 80s sports car with a Renault engine but man, I love it so much. The styling with the gullwing doors, the stainless steel body and that typical but also unique shape but most important of all it has something that's missing from a lot (if not all) cars today, it has character.....

    I was in love with this car ever since I first seen it in a motoring magazine, never seen one in real life sadly.... For me it's definitely the best car in the world

    Please don't bump threads. This was over a month ago.

    The topic of the thread is in no way irrelevant or outdated, so what's the problem with bumping it?

    I guess nobody is allowed to 'revive' a thread.

    This was an totally fine bump.

    On the topic of the delorean: I think i saw an top 10 video of the worst car and the delorean came on that list due to bad reliability and such. That video got a lot of dislikes for it if i remember correct.

    @Wild Hog I saw a Delorean at a car show twice.

    I think that 4runner ( I might have said this before in this thread. Please don't harp on me if i did.) is underrated for what it offers. It is a reliable, tough offroad vehicle.

    I've seen a couple. They're rather small, and sort of look kinda cheap up close, if you know what I mean.

    When I say feel cheap, it's like when you're near one of those terrible 90's american cars, and it feels almost fake, that's what a Delorean feels like.

    Fun Fact: My Great-Uncle has a Delorean. (He opened the doors on the freeway and they fell off. It's still in the shop)

    "It has been the greatest scientific discovery of the century, Deloreans can't fly when you open the doors."

    XF Falcons. The Xf had no V8. The XD and XE did ( XD/XE was Before XF and had the same Body. Same inline 6 engines. )

    The XF was R.W.D.

    And Came in Ute. Van. Sedan. Wagon. And Fairlane and LTD ( longer bodied )

    The Engines where choice Of

    3.3 I6 Carby
    4.1 i6 carby

    Or 4.1 EFI

    The Red car you see Before you. Is my Own XF :D

    I also Have a Ford Fairmont BA ghia ( based on Falcon BA just nicer ) But that's not underrated. ( Ford fans of BA who want leather and all the mods con's. This is the Holy grail )


    Note MY XF has her Cassette still ( work's and staying inthere ) And a XF model diecast car :]

    Mines a Falcon-S. The sports Model

    And shes a EFI

    Nissan Silvia S10, Not alot of people know it and i think it's an awesome looking car, resembling some 'Murican muscle car's.
