Video games are not everyone's cup of tea, but I thought it was pretty cool to see that a Torana is represented in a global video game that sells in the millions. :-)

Yeah, but isn't this game about racing? They should have used the L34. :stirpot:

I was just thinking what a shame about the color and they should have made it red, only color a hatch should be.   :P

Why not both? Then we could see which one broke first?

Needs the group C exhaust and a much lower tone.........but magic other wise.

 

There is a game like this with hatches, ford coupes, commodores etc at Bathurst that was free just the graphics where not quite as good as this. It was linked to this site years ago.

it,s worth noting that they decided to use the greatest torana of all

the A9X hatchback

not the taxi version 

or the breakage prone L34

let alone the 6 cylinder XU-1

alas sadly lacking a couple of important cylinders

haha !!!!!!!

oh shit!!!!!!

now waiting with baited breath for the obvious replies

but please guys 

remember i,m bias

and i truly love them all and would love to own everyone of these wonderful torana,s

Ok Dave, I'll bite, my thought is that they used the hatchback because it's pretty. The thunderous L34 would have been to much for the average gamer, you have to ease them in with the A9X before they can handle the L34.

Hahahaha
should catch up again soon?

But they got the exhaust note wrong, that sounds more like a SBC than a Holden V8?

 

(>> to 1:11 to skip all the commentators crap)

 

And what's with the full length grille?

craig

so glad you bit the bullit!!!!!

of course your torn between the 2 as you have the benefit

of owning a beautiful original L34 and a wonderful LX hatch

all but a six? no matter!

so impressive to follow your last trip away

with the torana

could not help noticing that you chose to drive the hatch with 300  000 km on the clock 

but you chose to babysit the L34  on the trailer to the L34 nationals the previous year

haha!!!!!!

just kidding craig 

love both your cars

and grateful that i have met you

and can call you a great mate

now bring on the rest of the comments

it,s all good fun!

and yes catch up soon!

How do they get away with the ciggie advertising in a kids game?

Was the chrome window surround on all A9X hatches?

 

The A9X sedans don't have it, correct?

 

LX 5000's don't have the trim whereas the LX SL/R's & SL's have them.
