Its the newest Honda Hybrid.

Looks photoshoped but I didn't know photosho can do movies as well. Pretty cool though.

TS out (looking at car classifieds for souped up tanks)

Re: Pimp my tank!

There is something odd about it though. At first I just thought that they filmed a street and put the tank in. But look at the scene where the guy is like on top of the tank screamin. He had to be actually standing on something. They had to film a car and throw a tank on top of it. Looks pretty real though, god knows what were going to see in the future.

Can only use Phtoshop on still photos, buddy

Obviously blue screened something that was the same size as a tank but weighted alot less. Look how it surges thru the stoplight...a real tank would need over a 900 horse diesel to do that type of hauling, so it was either bluescreen or complete CGI - plus the side panels look really fake.

Re: Pimp my tank!

yeah, that's why its photoshop-ish.

And tanks already have over 900 hp.

Try more like 5000+ to do that type of thing, considering they weigh like 45 tons.

Edit: reread your post, I see that you were pointing out that the current engine, of 900 hp, would be inadequate. Alright, I gotcha.

Actually it's a 1,500 hp turbine engine and it weighs 68 tons. But you're right, it would need a lot more power to move that fast.

Re: Pimp my tank!

I don't care what it weighs. I know it's not real, but it is real funny. I love that kind of stuff.
