Mad Max: Beyond Beliefdome!

[Sejah Haversh]

Dude! Mel Gibson has signed on for a new Mad Max movie!

You know what that means? Well, do you?

The return of the big, black, bad-hiney Falcon!

Oh yeah, I am so down with this film.

[Marcus Telcontar]

"Goota hand it to ya Max - the last of the V8 Interceptors"

Clevland 5.8l, Rootes based air clutch supercharger, toploader gearbox wrapped in a Aussie XC Hardtop with Cobra wing kit. The most seriously orgasmic bit of this car is that damn supercharger and it's air clutch. I'm tempted to say your gay if you dont drool over this thing's scream and it's open piped bellow.

No stuff it. You dont like the Interceptor, your gay. This is macho with a capital M.

Man I hope they have a Monaro or a newer Falcon. Blower out the bonnet too, with the air clutch. Ooooooooh yeah.

[Sejah Haversh]

Oh, how I so want that engine. I would give, um, lots of things for it.

But, sadly, it is illegal to have that setup in the USA. Grrr... and me with a Falcon with an engine bay and driveline capable of handling it...

That is so unfair. I mean, look at this sexy beast! It is car muscle beauty incarnate!

[Marcus Telcontar]

That's illegal?????

Why?

[Sejah Haversh]

Too powerful, was the reason. The engine was not built to US specs, and was deemed dangerous in vehicles here.

So, you Aussies got all the good ones, and the ones we got were the castrated ones, but we were told they were good because they hid the fact that yours were better. Many of those engines were made for use outside of my hemisphere.

[Marcus Telcontar]

Too powerful?

You got to be kidding me. What are you guys goign to think when some Aussie cars start landing in the USA next year? The Holden Monaro GTO (you see it as the Pontiac GTO), or the turbo Falcons????You minds are goign to melt - and even then your not seeing the Monaro 427 HRT - 7 litres of 420 Kw Porsche and Ferrari killer.

What are you goig to think when you realise the average family car in Australia can drop 14 sec quarters and do less than 10 L per 100 km? That Mum can have for 25,000 USD a wagon that can blast a WRX?

These are or normal family cars, not sports cars mind....

I think we're spoilt

[Sejah Haversh]

We'll be kicking, no, wait, I will be kicking people saying, "See! Look! Awesome cars! Now, beat yourselves silly for not letting us have them the first time!"

The rest of the world just does not realize how good those cars are. I mean, who would want a Corvette or a suped up Mustang when they could have a Holden ANYTHING? Or an Aussie Falcon.

[Marcus Telcontar]

Wait till you get a load of the BA Falcon GT 300 Kw of 4 valve quad cam goodness.

Jeez, a blower on that would be earth shaking

[Sejah Haversh]

Stop it! Stop it, Marcus, you're going to make me go rob a bank or something!

The beauty of that car is so, oh, so miraculous... I want one. Please, Ford Motors Company, I'd be willing to trade in my old '67 Falcon for a new one. Really, think of it as gaining an antique. I won't mind, I assure you.

Oh, so much power, such understaded design. The ability to smoke a Camaro off, and DOWN the line in a family sedan is a thing of beauty.

Oh, and compare that Falcon's 300 Kilowatts of power to the 2001 Toyota Camry's 67. I dunno about you, but, I like 300 more than 67 by a long shot.

[Marcus Telcontar]

And the good thing about Aussie cars is that they handle and stop too. The BA Falcon is a truework. Even a Holden fan like me... I would want the BA XR6 Turbo. 4 litres of turbo fun. Apparently can be boosted to 350Kw without hurting the motor. Gearbox on the other hand......

The base XT starts with 184Kw with a 4 Litre twin cam 6.

The Holden Commodore gets a 157 Kw V6 baseline.

And then add superchargers and V8's.......

[Sejah Haversh]

That's it, I'm moving to Australia.

[Sejah Haversh]

This calls for a new CT for me. File is attached.

[Jedieb]

No stuff it. You dont like the Interceptor, your gay. This is macho with a capital M.
:lol

I really wish I knew what the hell you guys were talking about. But I'm a Jeep guy and I doubt I'll ever own anything but a Jeep.

[ReaperFett]

So, shall I start another thread for those of us that speak English as opposed to car? ;)

[JediBoricua]

LOL!

Where is C-3PO when u need him?????

:lol

[Dae Jinn]

:lol!!!

The only thing I care about when it comes to cars are

1 - it runs and doesn't break down constantly
2 - comfy interior
and...
3 - it's pretty :)

But...I don't know how to drive, so the bus is my "car" :lol

[Threepio]

Oh my! Master Marcus, I do not like the Interceptor...

[Sejah Haversh]

You know what Marcus said about those who don't like the Interceptor...

[Dae Jinn]

Yeah, but we all knew that about Threepio already :rolleyes :lol

[Lilaena De'Ville]

:lol:lol

[Threepio]

R2 D2 is just the right height, too. >D

[JediBoricua]

LOL!

[Dae Jinn]

I wonder if he uses that tool bit thingy.....>_<

ew, Droid Love That Dare Not Speak It's Name!!!!

[Jedieb]

From cars to droid sex talk. Could things have gone much worse in this thread?o_O

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I saw the first Mad Max...and it was pretty...weird... :)

[Dae Jinn]

I've seen parts of the second one, with those weird kids and Tina Turner O_o

[Marcus Telcontar]

That's the third one

[Dae Jinn]

there's three??? :eek

[Marcus Telcontar]

Yes, there is a real early one that is quite raw that shows Max in the beginning. Debateably the best one too

[Dae Jinn]

isn't that "Road Warrior"? o_O I thought there was RW, then Beyond ThunderDome, Didn't know there was 3.

[Marcus Telcontar]

No.

Mad Max
Max Mad 2 (released in the USA as The Road Warrior)
Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome

[Dae Jinn]

K...well, didn't know, now I do :p

[Sejah Haversh]

Yeah. The local uber-store has Mad Max on DVD in special edition, and I'm trying to count my pennies so that I can buy it. It is old and rather hokey in places, but....

That car...

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I got Mad Max. Haven't seen the others.....
