Possible New Model ????

Yaw · 27-02-2005, 10:13 AM

Whilst we looked at cars yesterday before signing up for the Escape (different thread) ...we noticed the Subaru has an Outback model, Mitsubishi has an Outlander....My partner and I reckon Perhaps Kia need to bring out the "Outhouse"

This should be in The Bar........... Pretty pointless thread actually.............. But I agree with the Kia sucks part :P

The guy I car pool with at work had his late model Kia carnival at the dealership for over 3 weeks as Kia had to fit new heads to it as the head gaskets kept blowing because of the bad design of pre 2003 heads. He has 5 kids so the car was cheap to carry his family around in. If he had the money he would have got a Chrysler Voyager or Toyota Tarago. But they are a cheap car for people that have limited resources.

Again like the others have said, pointless thread - lock it or chuck it in the bar.

speaking of new models overheard dealer and staff talking about Ford putting the Jaguar v12 into the next model...perhaps the GTHO.

paul7v7 · 27-02-2005, 11:49 PM

not everyone can afford the luxury of some of the cars members here own. all they need is something to get the from a to b and their families. if the KIA does the job then goodluck to them. as everyone said pointless thread. Gotta say I am a little disappointed with the attitude of some people.

Hey John McMaster i've heard that Ford are gonna supercharge the boss 290 and call it a gtho interesting to see what ford are up to this year rumours are also that fpv might turbocharge the barra in the territory hmm.

rodderz · 28-02-2005, 03:47 PM

I have moved this thread to the bar as requested by others

Seems to be lacking any real info on what point is trying to be put across....need some more input from the thread starter to keep the discussion going

Well if what I heard is right then there will be a turbo sitting on top of the supercharger..giving you more bang for your buck...guesstimate of 450hp at the rear wheels..minimum.

whats that in KW? i

I'm not sure as I don't talk metric..but it is probably around 650/700rwkw maybe someone who talks metric can clarify.

Whoa, you're going the wrong way. It's 335 odd kw

Dez · 01-03-2005, 10:00 PM

holy shit. lol

i think if they can produce a car with a nasty power output, without resorting to a turbo AND a supercharger, it would actually be better for the cars (and the companies) image.

if holden fans just hear that ford got desperate for a high output engine, and strapped on 2 blowers, it wouldnt be as tough as if they could get a decent output without forced induction, or with just the supercharger etc...

"Announcing the new 'Minge Spec' Ford Falcon GT-P..."

Dez · 02-03-2005, 12:17 AM

well to get a massive power output, they're probably going to have to go forced induction....

all i meant was, if they bring out this GTHO, and its specs aren't a massive amount in front of say, the GTS, but the ford has forced induction.....we all know what will happen...

we wont earn any bragging rights, which are good to have after all, when the holden fans can say, "so what? all we need to do is supercharge a GTS"

either way, lets hope its an animal if it infact comes out

and it better look completely original!
