Well, let me tell ya somethin’ about them fancy Australian sports cars. I ain’t no expert, mind you, but I seen a few things and heard even more. You know, those cars that go zoom-zoom real fast? Yeah, them.
Folks ’round here, they talk about ’em sometimes. Says they got all sorts of names, like, uh… Subaru somethin’-somethin’, yeah, that Bee-Arr-Zed thing. Heard it’s the best sellin’ one in 2023, sold a whole heap of ’em, like, uh… more’n fifteen hundred, I think? Beat out that Ford Mustang and some other fancy names I can’t even pronounce. BMW, somethin’ like that, and that Toyota thing, GR86. Sounds like a robot, don’t it?
Now, they say there’s this other car comin’ out, a Porsche Taycan. Sounds like “taken”, like somethin’ got stolen, but that ain’t the point. This one, they say, is gonna be the fastest, strongest car ever sold in Australia. Imagine that! Electric, they say. No gas, just… magic, I guess. Powerful magic, ’cause it makes a whole lotta, whatchamacallit… kilowatts? Enough to make your head spin. Seven hundred of ’em when it’s in “attack mode.” Sounds dangerous, if you ask me. Like it’s gonna jump out and bite ya.
Then there’s this Audi thing. SQ8 e-tron, they call it. And a Q2. Too many letters and numbers, if you ask me. Can’t keep track of it all. They ain’t even said how much it costs yet. Probably a whole lot, I reckon. Enough to buy a small farm, maybe two. These city folks, they got more money than sense, spendin’ it on things that just go fast.
- Fast Cars, Big Money: That’s what it’s all about, seems like. Spendin’ a fortune on somethin’ that’ll just get you from point A to point B a little quicker. I’d rather spend my money on a good cow, myself. At least a cow gives you somethin’ back, like milk. These cars, they just eat up your money and spit out smoke.
- Too Many Choices: And there’s so many of ’em! Seems like every week there’s a new one comin’ out. Different names, different shapes, different… everything. Makes my head spin just thinkin’ about it. Back in my day, you had a car, and that was it. Now, you gotta choose between a Bee-Arr-Zed and a GR86 and a… well, you get the picture.
I seen some folks drivin’ ‘em around town sometimes. Young fellas mostly, showin’ off. They rev the engines real loud, makin’ a big fuss. Don’t know where they’re goin’ in such a hurry. Probably just goin’ to the shops to buy a loaf of bread. Seems like a waste of a good car to me.
But, I guess, if you got the money and you like goin’ fast, then why not? It ain’t hurtin’ nobody, I suppose. Just as long as they don’t come racin’ down my street, makin’ a racket and scarin’ the chickens. That’s where I draw the line.
If you want one of them fancy sports cars, you can go search for ’em online, I hear. New ones, used ones, all sorts. They got websites where you can compare prices and read what other folks think about ’em. But don’t ask me, I ain’t got a clue. I’m happy with my old truck, thank you very much. It ain’t fast, but it gets me where I need to go, and that’s all that matters.
So, that’s my two cents on them Australian sports cars. Take it or leave it. I ain’t no expert, just a… well, just an old lady who’s seen a thing or two.
