Running Vista Ultimate and it's sweet. Only drivers not available are for my UPS (no big deal - it still kicks in when a power out) and a Wireless card for my other computer. No crashes, looks good and has lots of features.

It's not a colour/look that I'd normally go for but I think your machine looks HOT!!! Very different from the usual and stands out nicely, gold strips for some reason look A1. Well done on successfully changing up what every one else does.

My god... both of you GET OUT OF THE WAY, that phoon looks the goods and your messing up my view.

fair point... and our prime minister, little johnny lives right in his back pocket, not to mention the other sidekick tony blair. 3000 us soldiers dead in iraq, how sorry I feel for their kids and families!!!

Yeah I agree, they should have given him a daily routine of torture for the rest of his life... maybe then he would begin to realise his inhumane treatment of others after suffering some himself. This is really the easy way out for Saddam and just leaves the door wide open for his matyr status to thrive and hatred to grow.

Err... these water restrictions are killing the fun of my weekly car wash ritual, before Stage 2 came into play, I loved my time getting close to the T... I've forgotten what it's like. Been using a new car wash in Mill Park which is completely brushless, it's the robot style but nothing touches the car aside from high pressure water. On top wash $13, driving in you get an undercar spray, then wash, conditionier, wax style. You do have the option to give the car a quick wipe over with a very soapy brush which I had ignored for approx 3 visits. It does a good job for a 100% touch free wash, though my last visit I had no choice due to dirt buildup but to use the brush prior to the wash and the car looked great afterwards (nothing like a Meguiars or Autoglym shampoo of course). Soap from these places smells a bit dodgy, I guess we don't have many options really.

Yeah that's what I thought at first, it was almost a proud explanation... But losing your car like this for a number of days and a $470 buck fine, not nice at all. It was either headsex or me sending this message, I'm gonna have to start taking it easy from here on, I don't want the same.

Ahh add me to this list, mine has been doing it for a couple of months now. I've got the ZF auto too, but then I've started to notice a few funny things lately... Vibrations coming from drivers front side, a sound of broken sticks on take off or changing down gears using the manual mode and a rear undercar clunk when taking corners. Might have something to do with the way I now drive the T, driving it hard and possibly too hard.

Where can you buy a 360 for $500 with a hard drive? I'll buy one if I find it that cheap.

Hey Guys, Have checked out this great new flick from Jeremy Clarkson (of Top Gear). He heads to the states to do a roundup of the best cars (or is that worst) the states have to offer when compared to Europe. Now I got the sense of a very biased opinion and the fact that he has never liked america, anyway this was one enjoyable film. This is a quick brief of some of the tested cars... He takes out various muscle cars from the Corvette Z06 (awesome power), Cadillac XLRV (surprising amount of power), basic Ford Mustang (ok), a '68 Stang (simply draw dropping muscle), then a great coverage of the Ford Mustang Cobra - one tuned by Shelby and the other by Roush. The Roush Cobra is an amazing machine, one car that Jeremy loved driving on the track, it's balance of handling and power would have me importing one if I had the $$$'s. And the supercharger on that thing sounds like a Jet as it keeps spooling. Then he moves through various crap american beasts, until he comes across my favourite - the Dodge Viper SRT/10. OHHH MAN, that thing with it's HUGE 8.3 Litre V10 is a MONSTER for power, absolutely unforgiving if you lose it, but who cares, it would be a laugh to have that much power rumbling under you. He also gets a hold of a Ford GT with all it's 500bhp, which he loves... but then the surprise package was left until last, ohh this was a sweet surprise that had me as horny as 16year old watching their first porn movie. Wait for it... Ford GTX1 - no less than 700bhp of pure excitement, rips the sh*t out of everything else he drove and he even decided to buy one after his test drive, I guess a very good idea for Ford to let him test it. You will be pissing yourself when you hear and see this thing rip through gears and just leaves you wondering how you can get your hands on one... The Good, The Bad and the Ugly - a great flick but suffers from the constant comparison to euro cars but has the right amount of cars & power to leave you in awe of the USA's love for muscle.

BUGGER!!! I need to make friends with a Ford service tech and work through this, I ain't happy... and I don't really want to wait till around 100,000K's and then edit, I'll be asking for trouble.
