Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up.

Tried to find out what the dealio is etc. with this car and the story behind it using old mate Google, but instead found another replica ... http://serenitymovie.com.au/viewtopic.p ... 91832586a3

Flux Capacitor is setup differently though.

lol yeah I know, didnt have a camera though, took them on my phone, but the detail on this thing was crazy, you cant see it properly but it even had the googles on the dash that the doctor wears in the second movie and even the clock on the dash from the first one and the digital speedo, even the mr. fusion stickers on the blender on the back of the car and most impressive was probably was the switch that turns on all the lights, flux capicator (which actually glowed which was really cool), and the board in the middle of the dash which all the dates of the time the car is in and was and all that, when turned on it even made the same bleep noise from the movie aswell

Speed determines how fast you hit the Traffic Light....Power determines how far you take it with you.

ABS = spongy brakes, but you'll slow to about 60

non-ABS = lock up at 100 & skid past the roo doing about 95. But you'll look sick doing it :mrgreen:
