i don't get it?
it' supposed to not have breaks or what?
i really think toyotas are great... even the ugly prius.... that americans say it's a lunchbox.... it's the size of a f-ing H3.... just not as tall.... _________________ BRING BACK SG-1!!!
oh, i'd rather have a toyota then a north american car any day of the week, but, i just thought it was funny
and, ya, some gas pedals have been fucking up and getting stuck down. . . .causing a few accidents. . .and, deaths
however, apparently, ford holds the record for the most recalled cars (or things?) ever, at 14 million , toyota's just at 8-9ish million, and, most of them apparently don't have the problem. . .they just wanna make sure. . . .
but, EPIC pic i think. . . . _________________ TV-Shows

Oh please!!. you can't compare toyata to Ford!!, thats just wrong..
Ford has 40 years on toyota!!! ROFLMFAO
And I've never heard of Fords being recalled (EVER), but over the past several years I've heard on many occasions (on the news) that toyota/honda (same thing) is recalling there vehicles lolz.
(Yes I drive a FORD!!) Never had any problems
IF I wanted to drive a car off a ramp or a cliff.... I'll buy a toyota/honda
I'll leave my Truck and the keys to my beloved ones so they can continue driving it for 100 more years. _________________ FireFly Rome

actually i have some cars in mind that are better than those.... don't get me wrong... i love the S4 and the VW golf 5 .:R32.... with a biturbo kit it can go from 0 to 100kmph in just under 3 seconds.... nearly as fast as a F1 car.... but i have to say... evo 9 is an good car... very good.... and lexus ... expensive but good.... i like citroen... actually if i think about it... i never heard anyone complain about a citroen.... and i hate the french.... _________________ BRING BACK SG-1!!!
i never heard anyone complain about a citroen.... and i hate the french....
Only thing I know about Citroen are the ones sold in China. They have a catastrophic breakdown after around 3 years, and after 5 years, the maintanance would be more expensive than the cost to buy a new car.
Granted, every domestic car in China is like that or worse.
and, well, now that i'm done looking for Ford recalls, our experience with cars:
plymouth voyager: sucked, spent 90% of its life in the shop
pontiac sunfire: not too bad. . . .had issues starting when it was cold once. . .forget what happened to it
mercury topaz: had many problems, broke down many times
ford taurus: not too bad. . . .occasional issues
dodge neon: terribly weak engine. . . only went to mechanic a few times
vw passat: SHIT, like, SHIT SHIT, had like 80k km's on it, tranny was completely WRECKED. . . .like, wtf?!!?!?!? that should last until at LEAST 300k km's. . . .
had MAJOR issues starting below -5C
instrument controls were partially broken
volvo 240: considering it was an `86, ran pretty damn good until its transmission died one day at about 500k km`s. . . .`
volvo 850: running good, at about 350k km`s, O2 sensor burnt out. . .but, nothing major
honda accord: ABS was wrecked by the time we got ownership of it. . . .besides that, had no problems
honda civic (2): no problems yet
toyota rav4: uh. . . .cd player skipping now?
toyota corolla: no problems, though, doesn`t get driven much
um, so, for those of u who sat aroudn for that. . . .
north american cars have been less reliable than Volvo`s and japanese cars
in my experience
and, yes, GM did just get screwed over by piss poor management, and lack of adaptation to the new economy
and, never heard of Citreon. . . . _________________ TV-Shows

You dare mock american made cars? DO NOT GROUP ALL AMERICAN CARS TOGHER JUST BECAUSE OF A FEW BAD MANUFACTURERES. ALSO I PERSONALLY LIKE GM. 6 of 7 cars/trucks we own are GM made and are fucking great. _________________
fair enough paperboy, it seems your r32 beats my audi r8 in bhp. the r32 seems to have 575 bhp and 0 - 100 kmph in 3.5 seconds (however i find that highly unlikey ). The supercharded audi r8 4.2 L comes out to 550 bhp
however if you could supercharge the v10 version of the r8 (and im not a car engineering expert so i dont know if you can) i think the r8 v10 would definatly be a match to your car paperboy _________________ "Kill the pig! Cut his throat! Kill the pig! Bash him in!"

yeah of course you can supercharge any car.... but you have to think the price difference between the two... and the price of the bi-turbo kit.... while my r32 WITH the bi-turbo HPA kit costs around 80k euros... your stock car costs about 142k euros... and without the turbo kit.... with this price difference ... you can make the r32 a very very nice car .... and with the DSG ... at a drag race you can't stand a chance.... it shifts in 8 milliseconds... to give you an idea how fast it is.... the Ferrari Enzo (1million euros price tag) shifts in 150 milliseconds.... that's fast i'd say....

i'd never buy an american "truck" .... which aren't actually trucks.... they are actually off road cars/SUV.... or just utility vehicles for rednecks... they eat like what? 30-40 liters/100km.... while a normal off road car like the Mitsubishi L200 or the Nissan Navara or the Mitsubishi Pajero... do like maximum 10 liters /100km.... and they are way better at offroading than the so called "trucks" from the north american manufacturers....
i never heard of american made off roading vehicles wining in a paris-dakar race.... or any major off roading event _________________ BRING BACK SG-1!!!
