Was out last night and i couldnt help but laugh when i parked next to this, it was mainly the big "swift" lettering that got me laughing. it looks completely shit and i really dont know why anyone would bother with it but each to their own i guess.

The other day I think I drove passed a boosted swift club
All the old ones and the barinas of the same type, all had big fuckoff coolers at the front, all with probably 4'' exhaust, i laughed pretty hard, woulda been about 17-20 of them

It's hard to beat the Honda Accord I saw a few days ago with heat extraction vents stuck onto the front doors.... because the doors always overheat

they do rev hard and go hard as long as it a good model not a bottom of the range, but really if you want power you wouldnt go out and buy a swift thats for sure.

Yeah if I wanted power I'd buy an E-Series, not a Swift, thats for sure.

You can't 'fix' sarcasm, people will just think you've missed it, and then you end up looking like an idiot

Snapped this at Phillip Island V8's a few years back. Must have a huge transverse mounted donk under that bonnet

Although I'm pretty sure the owner would have been intentionally taking the piss.

We had a combined cruise with the Swift club a few years ago.
They all flogged our arses.
People with LED's/neons on their car and/or have clear tail-lights aren't allowed to post in this thread.

back in warrnambool there is a white excel with a full kit like 15inch mags and a 3 inch dump pipe coming out of the bumper , they wanted to make it look like it was twin exhaust so they just got a bit of piping the same size as the bump and screwed it onto the bumper on the other side .....it was on the weirdest angle ever lol
