First Video from South Africa!!

[Vladror]

@RueFT86: i bought mine in joburg cause i couldn't find local stock and drove it to cape town. You'll be pleasantly surprised when you come down how much more power the car seems to have at sea level...

[Reyns]

You from Cape Town as well!!! We should all get together some time. I have some concerns about the car that i would like to question you guys about.

Thanks dude

We are a passionate lot down here... we've been through political and criminal hell and have managed to pull our proud country back from the brink.. funny thing is our capital cities are on a par or better than many of the large European cities I've visited... just much fresher feeling.. and our small towns are pretty much like any small truck stop you'd see in Texas... I have many friends who arrived years ago as tourists and couldn't leave.. this will be the wild west for a long time and freedom is a drug that once tasted.. you never want to stop having it

Man nice video. And fantastic landscapes, not to mention the road. Damn that's a very nice place!

Nice video man glad you're posting these. Too bad there are a bunch of grandpa's on here who get their panties in a knot about "fast" driving... "Oh my you're going to kill someone oh no, you should post the video of you crashing..." at not point in this video did you look out of control at all.

Besides if I made a video in my city it would look like i'm going twice the speed limit but in fact I rarely actually speed it's just everyone else is driving 20km/h under the limits so it appears i'm driving fast..

I can't stand it when people just assume things on these forums when they see someone driving spiritedly and besides, who cares if you are speeding? It's your car your choices, the rest is for law enforcement to enforce not some old fart on a forum.

Anyways enough ranting lol... keep up the vids i enjoy them they're what's keeping me going until I get my FR-S in the spring..

Cheers :happy0180:
