    On fear factor, they are crashing 3rd gen firebirds. I am so glad that the firebirds can have fun now too!

    I always liked the free publicity 3rd gens got w/the show, but not the fact that they got all fudged up.

        I always wonder what it would be like to be on Fear Factor...

        Joe "You will now jump this Firebird over a train."
        Me "WHAT?"
        Joe "You will now jump this Firebird over a train."
        Me "The hell I will!"
        Joe "What... afraid of trains?"
        Me "No, I won't destroy a Firebird like that."
        Joe "Uhhhh you will if you want the 50k."
        Me "Your momma!"

        Then it gets a little fuzzy after that cause I think Joe just punched me in the forehead.

          yeah, but just imagine if they were doing that with 67's in 1985. it would be such a crime. :(

                common now, 4 gen fbodys arnt exactly "valueble cars"... especially on a movie budget. [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

                      people can crash all the 4th gens they want, it will jsut make mine rarer and rarer. And the one in taxi was a v6, whcih you can get one of those early 6's for like 3k. remember 3rd gens are getting to be worth more than 4th gens

                        Crashing up a 4th gen is just wrong. F*ckers!


                        No they can't crash up a honda, i mean, hell that would be like crashing up a potential performance car... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

                          hehe you guys value these cars too much...

                          I woudl love to go on fear factor. Most importatn just to be able to flip a f-body or do whatrever. The other stunt looks like fun too. no so sure about the laying in bugs while drinking pig vomit part of the show, but the rest I'd do for freee they pay my travel expenses [img]smile.gif[/img]

                            The other day Fear Factor was flipping over 2nd gen Camaros on a single ramp so it would twist and land on it's roof.

                            Then I switch channels and saw a 99-04 vert mustang in a parade. Then I switch channels and saw a 3rd gen camaro getting bashed :mad:

                              then i watched CSI and a bus rammed a 3rd gen camaro over a cliff and the bus landed on it and the driver died. :eek: maybe its a sign that i should stay away from buses in the las vegas area.
