Point of interest, Holden, or more accurately HSV had their own Senator, a name which it continues to use today.

Ahh, I wan't sure exactly which car, either way the Commodore still looks very similar to the Opel Senator. Especially the C-pillar/Rear window treatment on the VK.

We certainly did, though I do personally like me some LTD... But when we were doing it right, we were doing it right.

Unsightly Yes, though I'm a Ford man. Boring? Have you driven one? I have.

Didn't just share a front end, I think most of the sheet metal was "borrowed" from Opel, as it frequently was through Holden's history.

They really were a mid=sized sedan compared to the old Kingswood and the Ford Falcon. I'd prefer a boxy '79 XD Falcon thanks...just make sure it has the 351 Clevo and Toploader!

Natural gas or LPG? I'm guessing since LPG is mostly propane and he works for a propane company that it is acutally LPG not CNG those cars run on. A popular conversion here in Australia, where cars can be found to be straight petrol, straight LPG or Duel Fuel.

LPG is not the same CNG.

Yes! The 'built auto', if its behind a turbo motor...forget about lag!

"Anyway, minding my own business, fantasizing about...."

haha It's like at the end of it, "and then yeah, they drove off like cowards and I totally had a three-way with their girlfriends"... I wonder if the story actually happened like the author claims.

You kind of do represent your group if you are writing about said group on a well known, internationally read blog. I have respect for riders, but yeah, mutual responsibility and stuff. I doubt leathers will protect from a heavy weapon...be it car or hammer...

Much like, I'm guessing but I don't know you so you could be like this, a large proportion of the Jalops here don't fit the: "As car drivers, you've been there before. Distracted by that game of Angry Birds, the burger you're shoving into your fat face or just asleep at the wheel" description of car drivers.

I think this sums up perfectly the problem with alot of riders. While car drivers need to be more attentive when they drive, they can't be expected to be constantly on the look out for bikes, some might only come across one a week. The bikers need to be more vigilant. Much like how out on the water, it is the…

No....no..noo.noo..NO! Torques is not a measurement! It's either Newton Meters or Pound/Foot...please...

He answered that...you just got to read between the lines.

But Koji claims to, at least that is what I take when he calls his partners..(sigh)..his minions.

But according to Koji "The truth is I don't really give a shit what the car looks like" though he does go on to qualify "I just want it to look like a modern Toyota"

While clearly the Elise is tiny, possibly with less luggage space, it is definitely comparable to an MR2...the icing on the cake...the Elise has a Toyota engine.
