CARS!

[Jubal]

I have absolutely no idea what a lot of that even meant :p

[SaidaiSloth]

Understandable, I've been having a mini nerdgasm. My dad is looking into buying a sports car from a top class car maker, but an older 90s one, not brand new ones which I believe start at about 300000 pounds. This was a surprise to me as for a long time his favourite car has been another sports car from a top class car maker.

The 90's? Pshhhh my sports car is from the 80's. Okay it's not a Ferrari but I'm not even mad.

I can borrow my aunt's Corvette any time I want and it's also from the 80's. Still not Ferrari but not mad.

[no1 croat fan]

Nah mate, you want a Fiat Seicento, it's a badman car!

So, an update. My dad passed on the Ferrari. He went for this instead.

Spoiler

Good alternative, I would say. He's looking into flux capacitors, but new ones are over $1000 AUD shipped here.

[comrade_general]

Did he seriously get a DeLorean? That is far cooler than a Ferrari.

[SaidaiSloth]

Hell yes he did. About $35000 USD, which, as a random price comparison is the same price as a Mustang EcoBoost Premium convertible in the US. He was super lucky to get it, there was a person in his small town advertising it in their front yard. I haven't actually seen it in person yet, since he's 3 hours away.
I agree, much cooler than a Ferrari. He is actually only a recent fan of back to the future, he first saw it when I showed him the bluray collection.

[comrade_general]

Damn bruh. Now you just need to crank that sob up to 88 mph.

Another Golf for me, 1.9 Tdi this time, 130bhp, it's a fun little thing, and I think I may end up killing myself in it if I'm not careful...

[Jubal]

I still can't drive

[comrade_general]

Wow Marcus, you might get that thing up to like 40mph. Be careful!

[Marcus]

100mph down the back lanes, and our roads aren't exactly big.

[comrade_general]

I think you mean kph.

[Marcus]

To be fair, if you wanted to bring your muscle car to our roads and drive it at the speeds you're used to, you'll soon be acquainted with a large tree many hundreds of years older than you.
