Excitement fills the air as Matty J shares his thrilling experience of seeing his dream car, the Lexus LFA, up close for the first time, describing the emotional impact it had on him. The episode also dives into a discussion about Forza Motorsport 7, highlighting its impressive graphics, detailed car models, and the new features that enhance gameplay. Matty and his guests debate the pros and cons of the game, touching on its track-based nature versus the more casual Horizon series, while also reflecting on the state of the automotive industry in Australia with the recent closure of Toyota's manufacturing plant.
On this episode I was joined by James from Man Vs Movies and Rhys as we talked about Forza Motorsport 7, its pros and cons I have found during my first few hours of playing it. We also talk about my latest trip to Dutton Garage and me meeting my dream car there! Rhys was in the hot seat for the car quiz.

Had a flat battery because obviously the College of sit there forever and joy, as I get buffer, I think it's funny though, because one of the cars that they had, an SLR, McLaren, and yes, and it wasn't even a left hook a lot lift-and-drive.

she's lost too. We're going to be talking about
my, I went again to dozen garage today and saw my dream car, which will get to very shortly to be honest.
It made my whole body, like, just want to like die.
It's like saying you're like Who'd be your dream person.
Like your celebrity, see, they used to be a strong Jessica Alba. This is what Jeremy Clarkson,
Carrie Closet in Bangkok. I realize just because I was
being a good friend of me and so Julian.
And he's like, he's like, this is like your meeting for users, like your Rey Mysterio moment for me in the pen.
I'm like, yes, yes, it was. So, That after but we're gonna
get a quick recap to race again your car.
Hey, how's the SS going SSI? Still alive?
Still love me. Still still don't.
Km is the daily. My it's not over yet.
Let me tell you. Your said you weren't too
interested in possibly doing a twin-turbo.
Twin-turbo hate looking at it. I see turbos.
It's about 7,000. So, you know, just have to weigh
up the pros and cons Now, if you did that, would you go for like a full build? A just bolt on and see how you
go? We'll build over there, complete
rebuild. You probably look at what five
grand rebuild. The Ellis.
I'll do it all myself though. Yeah after yeah, they sure don't
sound right. It's exactly right but if the
wagon is looking good except for that little thing on the side but we want to talk about that on radio.
It's embarrassing. This is Just putting that.
It's got a really nice exhaust night like, I almost want to do sound good but your sounds fantastically good considering the old. The exhaust only cost me about
$500. So it's a, it's a cat back,
right back. Okay, right back at back.
Yeah, we're going to get this because you got places on there as well. Right?
No, no, no. It's, it's still Factory headed
but your head is. Yeah.
Thank you. Harris back to Castle me asking
to so yeah, that's nothing too extreme yet but still it sounds good. It says, well, yeah, it does.
Yeah. Especially on, especially on the
over on when you're like me, you have to start and holder.
That's a grand made. There's nothing wrong with that
at all. What was I going to say?
James tells the mostly on the Maserati.
Still going still going still alive?
I mean, I need new tires probably near New shocks, but I don't have any money. So but I'm kind of relying on
Messner Mazda being reliable, which it has been.
So, so far it's been. All right, the engines, pretty
clean. Considering how old is and how
it's being mistreated not by me by previous owners.
But yeah you know keep it, keep it, put the oil, put the coolant and hope it doesn't die. I'm really relying on Mazda to
really put do the heavy lifting because I'm not going to be doing it but as I got your back I think James.
But if it's lasted this long it's been up there.
All the abuse has had it. Yeah.
It's going to get it's going to keep blasting.
Welcome. We're gonna go to a first Some
of the night. We're gonna go to a song by
Aussie artist. I played her last week George
Maple. She's off her latest first album
and it's called kryptonite. So we'll be, we'll be right back
after this. We're back and cut up with many
J. Now, I went to done garage
today, law. I've got a whole episode on that
garage and like Jesus would be this late last year and, you know, I can't really read it out.
If you're a car guy, you got to go there.
You know, they got everything there.
They've got all cars that I've never be able to forge.
So So, it's always good to have a look, like, they got the prize. Maybe it's like the Ferraris and
stuff, but, but it'll cost you can't slice to my mg Mercedes, like a lot of Black Series I got there, which are with still a crapload of money, which I really wanted to get my hands on, but yeah, we'll never be able to pull but I walked into a, I was with the mind of mine and we're flying, like, what do I go looking for drugs? Go today, in Melbourne today,
really, really nice. Sun's out, sun's out guns out.
I sort of tie for you. And we went to Wharton garage
and walked in and we already out audio launch.
I turn around and I see my dream car.
Actually, I actually like stop the like it was like, oh my God, I had the one of those. I was feeling girl in the hard.
Like all of the ultimate finger, it was a Lexus LFA.
I've never seen one in person. I've only seen one driving past
on the Arches. Coming were three way.
It was built, it was at the Lexus dealership in Brighton.
I believe if you're sitting at the front line in the in their, in their Showroom, on my God. But I've actually never seen one
close up and I tell you what man it's for me like people have the Horizon lamb. Is that my I'm having this
latest this car just like blew me away.
The detail on it in pictures you don't see the actual detail on this list your clothes up to like to a car and you know it's way better in person. It's like it's like meeting your
hero like for the first time and being speechless.
So all the little details all All it's like but it's it's really well put together like you see a lot of like other super concert there bit sloppy and sloppy.
This thing is like Precision Engineering, it blew me away.
So for someone like me who has and so yeah give us some specs what are you talking about a year?
So this is a 2000 and think was of 12 or not too short on my head or what year was it didn't have the theme in this in the window but it was it's a good it's going to be 10.
Well yeah a tune by Yamaha it's these things sound in real.
I'll have to play a clip of her life.
And basically, this car was just completely stupid lie over engineered by by the the Japanese Lexus team.
Looks like an 86 off. That's got it kind of doesn't
write a kind of does. It was in what to it?
Looks like it looked exactly like that.
James just shown us a picture of.
Yeah, it's fine. It looked exactly.
It was in white, was a really pearly white to and it just blew me away. It was stunning car start like,
yeah, I know it. Other cars Nails, you know,
Lambos your fries astons rolls royces and stuff but like nothing really compared to compared to what it was.
It blew me away after MIT like certain parts of you needed to go to the lavatory because I was like I was having a moment I was like, oh my God I'm gonna I'm gonna go to the toilet.
I've never felt like that before.
There's me with its Instagram. It is y'all gonna pop it off to
the show tonight. Julius like dude you gotta get a
photo with this thing? I'm like you really have you
read a paper bag bag but yeah got a picture with that potential winning gift. If anyone's listening if you're
listening you know you know I bought you a diamond ring.
Well you could buy me a yeah really delicious.
So say but different exactly right.
Don't mean you know, Alexis, it's actually got a function, instead of, like, just looking Penny, race is dying and stuff just all around like, Lambos and SLS has millions and billions of dollars of cars, so I just I'm gonna go tomorrow.
Yeah, dude, go go. I can't believe they just let
people in dammit walk around, dude.
It's I don't like all the fuel caps off a lovely, really, just like, you know, they say, Hey, you going They don't like you know dealer you got like another car like a
chunky dealership or even a car. Dealership push push push.
Push for sale. They like those like we know
99.9% of people I got to be able to so you can just have a look
around and come in. Put your boot on kick it a bit.
Yeah, dude. Always have like over to house.
Say I was just kicking back what I want to have lunch ran into.
You know, it's walking in and then a good friend of the show James came on, he walked up, and I was like, oh well, you know, he's like, oh what you doing here s?
So He was, he came in and yeah, well, kick back with him.
However, look at some cars talking about stuff would never be able to afford, but, you know, even then Julian's like doing the 54 brought the mazarin to trade.
What do you think the trailer? They give you a Hot Wheels.
It's like when you walk in the doors, it's great, dude.
It's honestly, you know, one of these things like I'm not a big exotic kind of guy but it's one of those places you just got to go, he's gonna be like, well, I'm actually being there.
It's this is pretty freaking awesome, you know?
And I had, no, I had no idea what was there because it goes obviously, the inventory changes all the time.
You got the rich man, change of people can't afford, it may be that a few cars. Last time.
So that had the the Boss 429, which is like the Holy Grail of Ford Mustangs. They had, they had a sale k63
Black Series there, which was there, but they've got another one there, to a C63 Black Series in red, which is freaking hot.
Like, that's yeah, I wonder how many repossessions from people who just can't afford it. Well, maybe go.
Now, you drop a mill? Can't afford it.
Yeah, come back. Yeah.
Well, your vitamins are 100 Grand a month?
Yeah. Wait, they wouldn't be cheap on
a car like that. I'll kind of imagine you're
like, but but that's only cause me, not like they had.
It had a Bentley issue SUV with a root with a ribbon here is, I was always duck with a ribbon on it, like ready for you.
It's so I'm going to come pick it up.
So it was really funny though. I was there and they have to
have the old Boss 429. Just just parked outside in
front of the Bentley. So I think they're going to move
it to get the you know the Bentley out.
Okay. So it sounds like it says it
says I'll move the c'mere. Then I went to start, I didn't
start it. Had a flat battery because
obviously the College of sit there forever and joy, as I get buffer, I think it's funny though, because one of the cars that they had, an SLR, McLaren, and yes, and it wasn't even a left hook a lot lift-and-drive. So, if because they never,
obviously release them here and the house look at the price, and I'm like, oh my God, and I'm like, the drilling.
I'm like, this is exactly the same price as I just bought my house for. It was like geez.
I thought it was it was funny. It was one of those things you
got to do but definitely I freaked out when I saw they want to sell the elevator I was I was giggling schoolyard.
That's they sometimes comes on just asking you be like yeah it was kind of embarrassing. You just like hopping around the
car, getting a photo of every single angle of the car selfie.
These are ya man. But yeah, definitely.
That was probably my car of the year so far, like, do that.
And actually seen one in person because I've always wanted to put them on at 11. Well, one of the see one in
person and even Jeremy Clarkson says Jeremy.
Clarkson did say it's the best car I've ever driven.
So so something for the first time.
So for The Prestige of that of that LFA which which is yeah, a bit Tenley. I'm so stoked as me.
You guys were supposed to love it, giggly thinking about it.
It's not. It was, it was like to me, she's
the car me, I like it's not just the card with a such thing as just a case of these. I mean to me.
Well that's awesome. They're right.
Exactly right way. How is your little cleaning
thing on anyway? Dude let's go.
Well, do know. Cole's people, you know, like
yesterday I was doing my brother-in-law's.
If G XR 6 Mark to turned. Yes, it is.
Slightly tuned pulling about 300.
If there is, so, it's doing right for, you know, considering stock intake, that sort of stuff.
Yeah. But yeah.
You know, I'm polishing away and he sends a photo to his brother and his brother calls and goes all, you know, gonna 2016.
VFS has red line. Come on, do it.
Can you come do that? Yeah I'll do that.
It's good in terms of Told that polishing and cleaning cars before and on the show. Do you have, do you have like a
system? Like you do?
Like, for example because I wanted to ask you, is there something you started with video?
Obviously, obviously make sure the cars clean.
Give it a wash, but like to do, do, do, do, do a full clay and then you do like, you know, cut and polish or, you know, so I literally like, lay on my bench before the Castro and arise.
Yeah, I generally have three buckets.
So you don't like yourself in the best.
I feel the body lines and then I started to become become one with the SS. You know?
I get three buckets out. I'd pre wash the car.
Yep. With a slightly cheaper.
Wash and actually wash with proper wash.
Yep. Always adds, you know, bucket of
water to dip in between. Yep.
And then complete clay and then I haven't done too many Cuts because the cars I've been doing of being only been a few years old, but Polish and then you wax sealant.
Yeah. And then McGuire's new product
fast finish. Their usual is really good
stuff. I'm actually going to try to my
car. I will give you my bottle to use
of so far done for cars with this bottle is still there and I haven't even used a quarter of the bottle kidding.
It's like he's spray the cloth five or six times.
You do Complete Car. Well I don't see me going
through it in the next six months.
Bloody hell don't you know a car awake cheese.
It's not bad and 450. Not a plug on paper.
It's crazy. Well dude we've been talking
about about this. I work at that we're going we're
going to going to do my car so I'm showed a gonna go ahead.
Gonna do a show like I want to probably go live on the Facebook page and check it up on Instagram page again before and after I'm talking looks pretty good as it is but it'll look it'll look better. Once mirror finish once the
magical caressing hands are freezing, okay, touch that the typhoon's body work yesterday. We love, love some dedication.
Now it's just that I do in the Exile Bonnet with the harmfulness, right? The shop floor and sometimes
took a while to Clay the bottom. So go ahead and poke up, but I
spend a little bit extra time on the Bonnet wax on wax off.
Buddy, better, mr. Miyagi and then you will be my
grasshopper. I will be your your I can't even
think of his day that you'll be dead.
Okay, boss. The re CK.
He knows the way since they recently sent a recent like that, that one's better. That is your new name on
contact. The geez Bobby said that Bloody
the bestial is finished. So, I have to do, we have to
talk about it ever again? We're guys are gonna have to
say, how should I go about your lash like this?
That yellow. So give he breaks up with, you
know, mrs. Mary J when he gets for you,
he's already it's really happened.
Already cheated on it. Yeah, lady Jays back on live
settle again. They're gonna get every fucking.
Follow us on Facebook. No, jeez.
Well I will move it on a little bit because we've talked about my day of Dutton and seeing my dream car to Forza Motorsport 7.
So this this is the latest game in the Forza Motorsport franchise obviously, for so, I think is the leading gray car company, just struggles to come up with good names for the guys for What's up, boys - my wife was mostly.
I mean, it's if you have up, if you guys have been planning to do for other for sorry, James your liquid component.
Your house. I've never owned one.
I'm a Forza Horizon 3 man hooting and pack hoonigan Packer get around to get around. The beginning of this one.
Is this one released on Playstation is an Xbox one only affords, an Xbox only and only franchise it's made by Microsoft Studios and turned down. So if you've played for the most
before I think they are Uhn console gaming, the leading, the leading Car Simulator game. I've set up submissions before I
hear about the about their previous games.
You know, for me I was always like a massive legal speed fan like I used to love neither speed isolate the lymphedema speed like that base to get the game every year Need for Speed to underground. Yeah it's got.
That was that was that was that was a very good game actually you know I don't want to talk it and as well I have a few weeks so we're going to do it in the first special of the game like Of all the good guys on what I should really focus on again.
But yes, yes. But in terms of the latest game,
it's a pretty much an extension of they last few months, Forza Motorsport games. And if, you know, if you know
about them, they're going to water and your car's good cars and I aren't done DCI DLC. So like, you know, getting like
five cars, you can pay the rest. They also, which it was just
like for most games really, really good.
I mean, force, it gets the basics, right?
I mean there's really no other games out.
That have like multiplayer so you can still have split screen even on the latest edition, which you'd think would be a bit out of fashion. But, you know, they've got split
screen and they've always kept split screen, which is really, really good, which is something most games.
Yeah, I do it's all online or go get another Xbox and playing the next room but in terms of in terms of that the Back to Basics and everything, it's pretty good layout wise as Forza is usually, as it's very, very familiar, very similar, but it's quite a few differences in the latest game.
Some are good, some are slightly not as good, like I've only played it about like, you know, probably a good seven or eight hours on it. So I'm really fully got into got
into the depth but I've put I've got a few pros and pros and cons like the present, the Prozac of the game graphically as most forces. Are there unbelievably good, you
know, the detail on them. Those of you know the frame
rates when you're when you're driving everything like that even the world around you. It's it's for looks it looks
real. It's like a I'm tired.
Like Forza 3 is that like track base or is it actually like a soap base? Yes, it is a difference between
between the 4th and so for example Forza Motorsport is always as like a track based game track face.
The game was whore. Horizons like more explorers
like spin-offs we're still good. Like your horizons for that,
like that casual player but like I still prizes like for the street racing and like Offroad. Adding likes having 40 count,
you know crazies fast fuse decals.
Yep. Whereas Motorsports more, like
the Gran Turismo like Sleek. Yeah yeah and I don't either
Motorsports here. Yeah, so you got to get on the
latest because the last one is actually really, really, really good support but I'll try to convince you in the end then internet and tonight's tonight's episode.
But yeah, the pros of this game like it.
I don't know from the last game jams, you've come over and played it. Yeah, and you said, well
Graphics are insane. Like you can, you can The car in
the garage and like open all the doors that would like to zoom into the steering wheel and like, look into the actual interior, the car and every car is the interior is detailed to like 121 to match perfectly real life.
So they're basically mapped out a real version of the car and into the game. And also you're telling me like
they're recorded the sound of the doors slamming, and the exhaust. And so every class.
Yeah, every car is like A real re-creation of its real-life counterpart in, in the, in the game World, which is crazy.
And a friend, like I saw how that went when they were like recording the sounds like some of the cars like that have them on a Dyno that have a car with a stock.
Exhaust have a car with like a modified exhaust and and idea sir sound changes if you modify the car it's it's like that your anal stuff like that that make them the obviously that makes the make the game like as good as it is.
So this game take it takes that 211 like three like we saw in the last Yeah, at speed U be like a while.
It does she feels like this but this one.
I mean, the guys, my 4K, yeah. But obviously, even without a 4K
TV, it's still unreal things that speed like when you're when you're traveling, like over to on a case where like you're being nervous that flap your that the windshield wipers are start to move and stuff and spits little stuff like that, they're like they make the Driving Experience.
If it is even in car experience that much better in car sounds like you can hear the snap, you can Here the crackles and pops on the overrun. When your, when your gear
shifting and like you're up in the ribs, it's just taking all that little stuff 211. It's it blew me away.
Like the first time players my, what I'm like, wow this is this is is unbelievable, you know. Let's not.
It's like it's not a Simulator game either.
It's not like, I know. Yeah.
It's like it's a fun racing game with a lot of detail and everything about. You can be that as crappy or as
great as you want and you can find your happy medium in the game and you can still progress through the game just by adjusting to your Or levels and the better you get you can that you can adjust it and and and and we run through that now.
They've introduced this time around is a few different.
I said, these are thought I think kind of Pros you can pick your driver so you can be either a male or a female.
Sorry, to the people that don't identify, but if you're basically need So you get the pic male or female.
What if you pick the stick, you'll essentially a robot.
And but what's cool about it is that you can, you can you can win differently, you know, drive driving suits and stuff.
So you can like module module player, which is, which is, I think pretty pretty cool. Because, you know, in other
games it's kind of got a bit repetitive.
Got it obviously makes up a little bit which is, which is pretty cool. You can.
I also like how they acknowledge, if you've been in, if you've been a previous Forza player, So for me, I've had 40 one all through all the horizons, the start of the game.
When I go on it, it says I, you know, your father veteran.
So I got all this free stuff. They gave me like other like
uniforms to wear VIP years all other real cool stuff which was just I'm of you know any other games that really appreciate their their previous the previous players.
I mean like the Call of Duty people just just expect.
Yeah, it's just whatever and we don't carry you'll still buy the game but like Forza really focuses on them.
A previous plays and, and to see that respect, you know that, like yeah, for them to actually give you say Aki, you know, you've played this game. You find other forms of you've,
we've been with us before on the journey.
Yeah, it's great to see their knowledge in there.
Well, I haven't even played the game.
The reason I like sing praises for is because I appreciate the effort that goes into it, because a lot of the like games in general, just like, you just like, why do they even bother or you're like, well, why didn't they bother you should say?
And it's yeah, it's stuff that makes stuff like this loose of the make the Falls are really, really, really really good.
And I think you're just appreciating the people who buy the game. Yeah, it says a lot for the
company that makes the game and it says that they're not just money hungry castles. It says that this is that
they're actually no. They really really really good.
And I like this look, this is not a guessing game car show but you know, it's correlated. I think people want to know and
yeah, it's yeah, you're right. People want to know and, you
know, I think that this game is a really, really, it's too big.
Step Up in terms of in terms of card games.
So the layout of the and the career mode is really, really great. It's really straightforward this
time around because like in the last ones you could that there's like you could pick here, you could pick that this one you can, you know, it's got I think it's like 55 tears, you work your way through each tier as a lot of racing involved and obviously your beauty, you build up, your Your garage.
So for example, the higher level, they usually give give they usually give you a card. But in this in this instance and
you get three options, which is really, really cool.
So you get to you, get to either pick a pick, a car that they have their credit, so you can use them game or like a like a like a massage. Like I'm like I'm mod so you can
you can get extra points when you win your race.
Which is, which is kind of cool? Basic Racing's really, really
good. You can adjust the, obviously,
the driver Stars like you did, they can be really aggressive, they can. They can try and hit your and
stuff. So it's, it's really makes for a
awesome Driving Experience. It's a lot, they've put a lot
more effort into this game than we have the last.
You can see it's a big step up for like the first five minutes.
You're playing it, if, but if still feels very Forza which is what which is good because I don't you don't really want them to kind of lose that in terms of, in terms of the cons, Cars that were in the other games that that were kind of in there.
Some have been taken out and we'll be probably most likely used as DLC, which I, yeah, which I don't live forever.
They're going to start doing like the micro transactions, which is not good to hear it isn't.
But I guess that's where all games are going and at some point, it's unfortunate. But but having said that they've
still putting a lot of cars, which is, which is good.
But it's, you know, they got rid of some cars that were in the previous. In Forza Horizon is stuff which
is like the are fine. Like, yesterday, I went to play
for the three and little Forza Horizon tree and, you know, go to play with the newest star falls with on and you have to have Porsche and then the way get a Porsche, he's buying it.
Yeah. But you know 595 or yeah, while
the whole car pack. Well see what's happening?
You got the reason behind and then that's it.
That's a big con for that game. It is yeah.
It's like for someone, you know, play who pays for Xbox Live.
You know, every month. Yeah, and you know, have bought
previous doubt, you know, like all the DLC Packs.
Yeah. Like so, not even play with an
online thing now. Well, I find that say I find
that like stuff like that. Very no.
But there's a reason why Porsche, especially I don't know if I mentioned this on the show before, maybe.
But um, Porsche I think it's Gran Turismo have to write to the Porsche, okay? So every other company has to
really fight for though. No need for speed or any of us
Need for Speed of the right support.
Yeah, that's why I like that. They had like Next, we have like
a Porsche game. So they like a royalty.
Yeah. So this this Forza.
The latest one is the first game.
The first four are going to actually have Porsche up a belief portion there from from the get-go.
So you have to pay for because every other forms you have to YouTube, I push back, I push back, push back, push it back.
So, in a, in terms of that, it's a real good step up for them.
But in terms of the vote, they've dropped other cars and that in the game, which is a bit.
No, Holden's. Now there is, there's this SS is
the Geniuses. There's a How do you know next
to write that it's good that they've actually in?
Because my biggest complaint from from car games is that they never really pushed are as you cars.
Yeah. And one of the reason why I
stopped playing Gran Turismo is great.
Great is my fourth time. He's the one of the, my favorite
games of all time, it had my bloody head, my car in a vehicle carrying their race but just the sedan version.
Yeah, had the typhoon, had the SS, the latest one got rid of the typhoon, I'm like, what the hell?
So will the log number five? I should say.
So the Very annoying and it was pretty much.
No. Come there as you cars from here
on in and the last one because the game was based in Australia.
They really tried to push push the other cars and it's and they've kept them on which has been really, really good because it's yeah, she's got some like me are really fairly famous cars, for example, like the XB GT coupe, which is, you know, obviously Mad, Max car which has been, which has been kept in the game and I actually bought I'll drop a ball one of those last night just has like my shitposting this guy but I bought in the game and you know, it's great.
It's really good to see in something, you know, it's kind of cozy. I know, I like the what we've
got, you know, we've got some of our stuff in the game and it's good to be acknowledged because you know, Australian motor support such a big part of Australian culture and you know, most games you play don't acknowledge it.
So it's called just to see it 100% And, like you with Bathurst, you know, it's good to see that the kept that yeah, that's cool for so many years. People like we want bath, as we
want about this, we want both us and then they came here with actually like scanned it and that they were there for like ages. Make sure making sure they got
bath is too, right? And it was, it looks fantastic
in the new game. But yeah, that's the thing that
attracts a true to life as well. Yeah, I just thought the world
around the cars just like the specs of the specs of grass and everything. It's really it's taking the
thing in 2011, but it's good to say that they're like your acknowledge that, you know, she's got a rich history in Motorsport and, and, and we want to push that forward.
So yeah, I think that's, I think that's a pretty pretty solid wrap of so far more my gaming, you know.
In Forza, Forza Motorsport. 7 against a couple of little
things that are there be defeat, but I think that it's so it'll get ironed out as the game goes through.
But yeah you got to get on a rescue.
Have I sold you? You definitely going tonight.
Yes, pick it up in the morning after the morning.
Well, it was quite I'll get the pie order.
I pre-ordered it and I put it off.
I feel it's the one. I don't pee on any game, but is
the one going every year special edition of the special edition.
I came here like a little model portion a box, that's cool.
So yeah, middle case and stuff so it like it's good to say that they like they put the effort like what I want I pre-ordered Horizon. I got like a, like a t-shirt.
I remember taste. Yeah.
So I said that was very have that, you know, yarra Valley and stuff on up so that I thought that was pretty cool.
But I'm yeah, definitely, Forza Motorsport, 7, Big Ups because in the crew, here at Carr talk because it's it's a real big step up in in terms of Console simulations.
We're going to inspect the not going to get to a song by struck one. It's got a dark machine.
We'll be right back after this. You're welcome card so good
marriage a that was shook one with dark machine.
Real. Cool tractors.
Came out a bit different bit. Kind of, what would you say is
like donkey? That's the dark.
It's a bit dark, but it's a bit like, it's like, kind of.
It's like, I'm old drum and bass, like, it's what do you call it? We'll go with just I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be old man and just
call it. And since music, I don't know,
dude. Yeah, guitar.
I'll listen. What about some old
what's-his-name copper because copper instability?
Romanus is gonna count again. But speaking about strea it is
another sad sad day. Australia, in terms of the
automotive industry with Toyota closing its doors at midday.
Yes, I heard that on the news. What's this writing news?
Yeah, Toyota closes manufacturing doors are Shia, let's try it today. Today was the last day with in
two more weeks, we'll be doing the generals leaving.
Have we talked about this? What about Ford last year?
But today is the last day for the Toyota.
So, they 12:00 today, they'll the last car off the line.
I would say what that car is because it's in The quiz quiz the quiz but it is, you know, it is like the first plant that that's run by Toyota, that's actually folded.
So out of all their plants, all over the world is that the first one to say goodbye way. So this is a worldwide thing.
We're just going to show you a child because it because it's really we don't make anything anymore do we dream.
So yeah, but I can't remember if you talked about all this or not, the problem with this. Is there was no Road.
Like I'd never heard on the radio, like, it was closing.
Yeah, that's what I was gonna say.
It was all the sudden today at 12:00 I heard on the news.
Breaking news Toyota has stopped manufacturing Australia.
Yeah, hold on. Why when yep, who decided this?
Yes, oh, it's on. It was announced that they times
last year. Although three years ago
actually, they like we're going to be ending production on this day and I guess because it's not really their cars.
Were really more Japanese base. They weren't really talk to it.
Talk about it, like it is the Commodore, as the Falcon, and because they're obviously very loyal nameplates.
But having said that, the Orion and the camera were very lonely place here to, you know, they've been making cameras here since the late 90s that says that the late 80s.
So, you know, the guy she had forgotten, was 56 years old. 57
years of production. Toilet has had yellow cheese to
make rolls, they make rolls you as other popular.
Yeah, they did. The older Kerala.
See are obviously made the Orioles Camrys coming.
Stuff like that. So they got a really rich
history here in terms of manufacturing.
I Tyrone his dad. His dad won't either.
He's everything to paint. Yeah, that's alright.
So I don't know what's gonna happen with these that, with his old man left. It's a bit, it's a bit sad there
but, um, you know, it's just from from Castle be like to give a big know, we suppose, suppose you have that to the workers that to work is up to where I and to all Sub Sub sub Z do this. I'm some kind of talk something.
Very little companies are made like the nuts and bolts the ties is that the other four? Yeah, there's so much
surrounding it that's going to suffer.
I mean what's holding bails out in a couple of weeks?
It's it's pretty much you know, tons of people are going to be on welfare. Tons of people going to be out
of jobs. I mean, Toyota's really don't
like the white like for they really, they're really try to get people's, they upskill them a new jobs and got them new jobs. Well, yeah, there's some of the
people got jobs. Other people can't and other
people haven't. So like we serve a lot of the
older people that have. The work that Toyota for all
their life 50-odd years, they've got they're gonna look like they're going to all the skills that I don't know what to do.
So they probably have to retire and and I think for out of all of the 2500, I believe, don't quote me on that.
That, that lost their jobs today.
I think it's like 900. So I found another job with
moved on but the rest have got nothing.
Yeah, so to yours the plant Altona Altona.
Yeah. So it's all your families and
and you know and people surrounding, we are thinking of you, we do support you, you know, it's it is a sad day people, the odds Toyota Camrys and Appliance but at the end of day, someone built that car. Yes, I was someone's son,
someone's livelihood like more than a year ago.
We did like a whole episode on the braudy plant for ya.
Closing and like with alcohol, I think yeah the whole episode we just talked about like it's going to affect everyone.
Not just those people working there.
So I just kind of the sad problem.
Same thing happening here. I mean like I drove past that at
the chemical plant other but the board debris plane essentially just a couple weeks ago. It's a massive place.
I don't have a different part of it is.
Huge, are the only got one little section is open.
So there's always a courier Acres of just stuff, it's just Ghost Town. Mmm, and it's really, it's
really sad. Yeah, and it's two thing that's
gonna happen Altona. But the think it's going to
happen to like all these people are gonna be out of jobs and and trying to get another job. It's it's it is really sad and I
do feel I do feel for these people because the guys for some people like it for Toyota holding Mitsubishi Nissen because we can't forget about Mitsubishi nice.
And that they they better half years ago to it is.
Anything made here anymore any cards.
Hold it for another three weeks, I think and that's it.
Yeah. Another to waste one single next
year. That's it.
That's that we pretty much don't make anything anymore.
We are its hold on to your Australian made Beauties.
Yeah. Hold on to them, you know
because I mean especially like, like, limited run stuff or like, you know, all I can stall the odd stuff there, they they kind of hold a value. So bitter, bitter car took
advice, you know, hold on to your home for your car's because you know it's going to be you're going to be looking at it like you're in 20 years from now and say geez we actually yeah this is we actually build something. We do something good.
Yeah, you look back and say you know this is an Aussie bloke.
I was like we built things. Have their kids are we asking.
Yeah, exactly. Right.
So I mean, I sure as a really long history with building cars with Google, delete everything from mercs, the citroen's to Persia, goes to to JVC Jazz, sorry to AMC javelins, you know, tons of cars with building owners should be bill is all of them. Have kind of folded over time,
but It is sad and it and I just, I really, really feel for the for the people out of that have lost their jobs because you know it's it's your livelihood and and yeah fingers crossed that you find something soon because yeah it is a it is especially in today's climate is pretty hard to get a job out there and yeah we're we are so y'all know what we've all been in that spot.
It is sometimes it's hard to get a job.
So I think it is I think we talked about this when the Rowdy plant closed like hopefully Lee new Industries can come in and support people like that and you know, we can retrain people who lost their jobs, but I think we said the exact same thing when the broader paint plant closed. The government doesn't really
seem to be interested in helping people.
It's just yeah. Hopefully, you know, tears, I
think Tesla's building factories here.
Now, they're going to build their super battery plant in the desert. So I mean hopefully and they're
super cheap. Super mega mega charges.
They're going to make now, see something like they, like superchargers but with by cafes and stuff.
So that'd be kind of cool. Maybe those Industries will
start replacing the plants that have been lost.
So I think hopefully give these people some jobs as yeah, who knows? Yeah.
So, on behalf of us a car took, we are thinking of you, keep your heads up and, and your and be there for you.
Hmm, it is a ton of the not risk a, during the outbreak, something I think I left my wallet during the outbreak out, that he's just ran out of time and he's gone.
We have got the car keys on tonight.
