From the way Gibbo is going, he'll have a different one for each day of the week.

Well I have looked long and hard as I tend to look for a new car after 2 years and my 2 year lease is up at the end of this month. Nothing else compares at anywhere near the same $$ so I am going to buy out my lease and keep it. It's small manouvarable still turns heads fits 4 goes like a scalded rabbit has 34000 km on the clock.... I'll have another think in 12 months. If I was looking I reakon the 300C SRT looks the goods... in Black with chrome wheels

I toyed with the idea of foisting one on 'er indoors as a family car but the back seat is pretty small for something so big. When I shut my eyes to the bling factor and power I also have nagging thoughts about the suspension tune and interior quality. Frankly, the F6 Typhoon makes a more convincing case in everything but looks.
Still, I'm gonna test drive one just for the hell of it.

Mmmm 300 C Chrysler
Now thats a car !! No car turns heads like a Black 300C with 22's on it
And for the track a 2nd hand MX5 .
Nearly scored one over the weekend for 8 grand . Drop a 13B REW and for 13-15 Grand no one can touch your *** !

What about a car that costs half as much as a Revelation otr, but still has ESP, ABS, EBD and ltd slip diff, leather, heated seats, sunroof, aluminium pedals, weighs in less than 1200kg, and does 0-100 in 8.2 stock? And here's the rub, spend another $1700 on an ECU upgrade, and you have a 40% power boost. There's quite a few dealers, too, and you can buy one tomorrow.
Anyone guess what it is?
Oh yeah, it's a four seater, too

I was browsing through the alfa brochures and noticed that none of the "technical specifications" include the length of the car... Strange..
Check out the city fuel consumption 19L/100km
