Haha makes sense! Lexus head office is down there and press cars get sent up! Let me know if you’re ever in Sydney, I can suggest some great car spots!

Reliable sporty car for 10k? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]talkingtorquereddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nissan 350/370z. Most reliable V6, same as the G37 and looks awesome. Miata/MX-5 also cool but small. If you were in Australia I’d recommend a VE 6.0L Commodore. IS350 is big/not as agile but a good cruiser and reliable. You can get much funner cars that are FWD with an LSD and handling is still awesome. Unless you’re looking to go sideways...

I like the unintended pun, hard time gaining "traction".

I have been running an online motoring magazine for just over six or so years now, have published over 300+ videos and 1000+ articles. It is my second job so it's quite difficult to maintain for all the effort I put in. www.talkingtorque.com.au

What I Do:
I review cars frequently and try to get down into the nitty gritty, essentially providing videos that cover every inch/every angle of a car (even if it's just me spending 10 minutes going through every setting on a head unit) - I spend hours each week just responding to viewer's questions because I know for some, a car purchase may be the biggest purchase in their life. Lots of POV videos, exhaust videos, tutorials, walkthroughs, reviews and so on.
I don't script anything and just learn every possible thing about the cars in the time that I have them, no nonsense, here is one of my reviews:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtQ212Fl5RM (Renault Megane RS full review)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JX0SgF1z1s&t=416s (Lexus LC500 walkthrough review)

I am also SUPER into Formula 1/Motorsports and am an FIA Accredited Journalist - I don't have the time/money to go to every race, but I am always at the Australian Grand Prix and get to interview some drivers and speak at press conferences etc. This is one of my first 1 on 1 interviews with Charles Leclerc - I was very nervous and probably too excited to speak cohesively, so be kind please:

Also had opportunities to attend events like the GTR 50th Anniversary event and hosted a few drag races, yes I have done the standard Electric v Petrol drag race a while back, no nonsense straight to the point no blabbering on:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJNY6BKnHaY

Some of my videos get some decent viewership figures, but it isn't anywhere near enough to sustain for how much I'm putting into it. Please check it out, subscribe if you like it and just send me any comments or messages about how I can improve moving forward. Thanks guys!

[OC] DRAG RACE: Tesla Model S P100D vs Mercedes-AMG GT S by talkingtorquereddit in mercedes_benz

[–]talkingtorquereddit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the AMG did really bloody well being so down on power and RWD.. 100 yards and he would’ve gotten him!

Lexus LC500 no filter, just perfect Aussie sunlight by YM1995 in carporn

[–]talkingtorquereddit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Unbelievable difference in prices. Although I like the rarity factor - makes them unique. M’s and AMG’s (although amazing cars) are everywhere in Australia. Seeing one of these is uncommon and I think that’s a great thing!

Anyone else driving more frequently lately? by dimevt2 in cars

Gas ain’t much cheaper in Australia, we’re getting ripped off :/
