Thoughts on the attempt to 'beefen' up the Subie in response to criticism? I think it looks crap and whilst Subaru have spent the past few years telling us how 'mature' their cars are, this looks like an old man on steroids. Admittedly, the hatch looks a bit better but still not...

URL: Maserati clocked at 195km/h Am I the only one who LOL'd at this? 195km/h isn't really that fast in the scheme of things (plenty of hoons do that speed in their much less stable/safe cars)... that being said he did have a wife and kids in the car. I did like the final statement of the...

Since I have my new PC I want to relive my younger days and buy CS Source and a variety of games in that genre (I loved Tac Ops too). Anyone know where to buy this now that I have a PC which can run the latest (well not that new) version of CS! I've looked everywhere (GAME, EB, etc) but can't...

For those who didn't know, the M4 is being handed back to NSW State Govt to manage... whom will then make it free. Yes this increases traffic congestion but it means a more direct route for those of us travelling from Parramatta Rd onto the motorway and wish to get off at Parramatta (nearest to...

Is it just me or does Intel's naming conventions defy all normal logic? Gone are the days of just looking at clockspeed/price and picking a nice balance with RAM. Anyway, I have a Core2 Duo in my Macs and find that their performance is great for my needs when I run WinXP on it (surfing net...

After seeing so many adds which offer girls in my area and even know what suburb I'm from (or they pick a neighbouring one), I was wondering how do they know? I'm guessing it's something to do with IP addresses and locations but... not really sure. Anyone know?

Has anyone searched this on iTunes? There are some surprisingly good piano renditions of pop songs and other famous hits... it adds a whole new depth to some of the songs (e.g. Lady Gaga!). And yes I'm aware you could have downloaded MIDI files and whatnot, but there's something about these...

Just wondering if anyone here has any experience with ordering these online and any thoughts on the process for ordering in Australia (as most reviews online such as http://www.tomsguide.com/us/digital-photo-books,review-1102.html are based on the US) I'm currently looking at either using...

Since this was discussed quite extensively (and off-topic) in the other thread (http://community.boredofstudies.org/505/cars-automobiles/229436/worst-car-road-today.html), I thought I would create a new thread with the latest updates to the news and for any more discussion on SAAB cars. From...

Rather than the usual rate this car kind of thread, we all know it's going to be a crapbox. Yes my family has one of these milo tins on wheels with a small engine, but what we're asking here is Good or bad for the market? On one hand, it offers a brand new car (with supposedly new car warranty...

Just curious because obviously BoS isn't exactly the most car-oriented forum! I'm a regular on AUSCA (www.ausca.org - the Australian Universities Student Car Association) and Edge-Racing.net. (note: this sucks, you can only post a poll within 2 minutes... coincidentally it took me a bit longer...

Has anyone started watching this? Despite all the negative attention, I think it's still not too bad. I mean, it provides a hella lot more interesting watching than Fifth Gear which I also happened to watch tonight on 7two. The only thing I'd like is for them to focus more on the cars. Would be...

Has anyone tried one of these yet? The TV adds do look kinda appetising! Domino's Pizza – Awesome Pizza Order Online

Rate this: TRD Aurion What does BoS think of the TRD Aurion? Link for info: Toyota TRD Aurion 3500S – Car Reviews, News & Advice - CarPoint Australia I think it was a good effort by Toyota and they definitely sharpened up their image as more than just boring Camry's... with a nice...

Haha... I figured to make this forum more interesting and to hear general public views and comments on a car, I'd start doing regular random car threads on "Rate this". Could be interesting. Rate this: 2009 Mazda 3 MPS For those who don't know what it looks like, here's a pic...

I just happened to stumble upon this on the RTA website.. URL: http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/rulesregulations/2008parkinglaws.html?hhid=parking

How to write cover-letters... and various other tips for applications & interviews! Since I get asked this question so often both in person and via PM on BoS, I thought I would share these links from MyCareer on; The purpose of a cover letter...

My friend has a question re: Intangibles. The question from her workbook is as follows; The question is: "Explain why intangibles are a $300,000 asset for Louge Lizards" I know how to answer this from a 3rd year accounting perspective but considering it's a 4-line question with 1 mark...

Does anyone watch this show? Is it just me or do they always use a black R32 for their car modelling... are they trying to suggest something?!

lol I know I did a thread similar to this a year or so ago with V8... but this time I drove an old BMW V12 and it was fantastic. Throttle response... amazing. Not like my Civic (duh) where you have to cater for that slight delay in response. The moment you adjust foot, you feel the car surge...
