Jack, you mean to tell me you have never seen Mad Max or the Road Warrior before? Are you serious? I mean sure, if you don't like it that's fine, but to not know what it is from??? How old are you again?

definately not old enough to appreciate that ugly thing...
must be a fantasy thing from a movie??? or someone you know who drove one??

Originally, it would have looked like this:
And yes, that is the car from Mad Max. Isn't Mad Max or AT LEAST the Road Warrior like REQUIRED viewing for every male at the age of 12 or was that just me? Man, I guess I am getting old...
So you really don't like any of this stuff, Jack?
If you answer is no, than this explains a lot about things and why you like 4-door race cars.It's just a big generation gap I guess.

I love the two tone gloss and satin paint that this guy did.
Mad Max 2 is one of the best post apocalyptic movies ever made. Not seeing it is like not seeing Star Wars. It’s just bizarre.
Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

Exactly, I don't understand how kids today grow up without seeing at least the Road Warrior, Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, etc.I love the two tone gloss and satin paint that this guy did.

I mean, my dad showed me all sorts of stuff from the 60s and 70s, and I watched LOADS of movies as a kid. Jack, please tell me you have AT LEAST seen Red Dawn? I probably watched that movie like 1200 times as a kid.
The gloss and satin job is the "Black on Black" as it was painted in the first movie.

That's still pretty odd, I mean that would be like us not seeing Planet Of The Apes, Dr Strange Love and Flight of the phoenix. It's just not right.

Oh Bart, too bad you weren't at Moab, I cannot tell you how many times I have seen it, nor how many times I had dreams about it in junior high......
Jack, I am glad the new STI is a hatchback...hahahahahahahahahahaha, at least it can haul a lot of groceries now.....
I don't know how I missed this thread, thanks to Riffraff for pointing it out for me...

Perhaps, but I also suppose I said that jokingly...I think.OH MY GOD! Someone my age just said - "I don't understand how kids today..." You are aging faster than I am, me thinks!
Hmmm, I have neither heard of, or seen ā€œFlight of the phoenixā€¯. Time to queue it up.That's still pretty odd, I mean that would be like us not seeing Planet Of The Apes, Dr Strange Love and Flight of the phoenix. It's just not right.

The Flight of the Phoenix
Super VXer
oh man...i guess im showing my age
no, but really.. i have heard of some of these films, but no...i havent seen em...never really been into sci-fi though to be honest...
and actually no on the cars bart, all of those look like over-heavy hunks of metal...i can appreciate them for being a good vehicle for their time, but they are dead now and FAR outdated...
dont get me wrong, i can appreciate that at the time, that was an amazing vehicle..but nowadays, it just seems useless. big, heavy, ugly, stock-has no power....yes with lots of $$$ and time one can make one of those really fast...but that can be said with ANY vehicle...
as whitney has watched us discuss throughout this thread she just keeps telling me, "its all about what you grow up with, thats what was cool when they were 16, so to them its cool stll...to you, japanese cars are cool, so its cool to you"....sadly enough, i think shes right again
