st.nick Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 I think I'm gonna be sick!! :) :P Testing a myth of ciggie lighters exploding in a hot car, they used a Shovelnose Coupe!! :D I can't believe it!! It even looked to be in a reasonable kinda condition too... RIP a piece of cool Toyota history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trev Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 I was only talkin to Des about that episode a week or 2 ago, I wasnt sure if it was a corona or not as i had never seen a 2 door (the back looked like a fiat), Over there it would just be an average shit box which sucks.

counc Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 at least it was in the name of science :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joch666 Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Yah we saw that too.. it was extremely sad and depressing. The experiment wasn't even that interesting (like duh, of course 500 lighters are gonna explode when you heat and ignite them. Even stupid science noob me could have told em that WITHOUT destroying the shovelnose!!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7shades Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 (edited) Adam has even traded his hilux for a dodge ram... AND they shot the windows out of a camry last week.... methinks there's a completely coincedental anti-toyota sub-current running through that show....

Nitephyre Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 I almost cried... the only Mythbusters episodes where I was saying bloody currants :jamie: :n: :wub: ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRMOPARMAN Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 i saw it and was shocked also, then i thought.. US i reckon would have the largest 2 door market in the world.. so youd probably find those cars are like arseholes over there, and they didnt think anything of it? ke25 (mango's) are quite popular over there.. rare here.

deri2k3 Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 i saw it too! thats a nice car, 2 door sedan+pillarless doors.. why can't they use another car? as the car looks to be in fair condition, i wouldnt mind getting one of those. lol. but maybe there are lots of similar 2-door shovelnoses in the US in the same condition as this yeah?

sammo[RL] Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Yeah saw it too! Wasn't sure it was a corona till i saw the front. Did anyone see that it was a column shift auto, even rarer! :jamie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CD_rollaman Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Didn't they destroy one a while back, when testing their ejector seat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
