a couple of weeks ago when i was looking for a new car i come across an AU xr8 sedan.

She must not have because the photo was taken down later that day

Ive got a feeling that might be a typo, it says 'So how do you spend two-twenty k on a Holden sedan, you ask?'
22k would make ALOT more sense then 220k

Thanks for sharing that, but that has to be some of the most stupid crap I have ever seen |:

It almost looks to me like common-place to be smashing up a perfectly good post 2006 car.... What an eye opener to what they do over there o_O

Well, with the amount of money they have there, it would be just like us going paddock-bashing in an old EA or something.

Same as those rich folks who use notes to light their cigars!
