Back in the days when I was interested in my car, I'd take it up to the mountains regularly.

Heading up to Mapleton via Nambour is the best route. There's some seriously extreme and challenging twisties on a very steep gradient on the way up. Then when you reach the top there's a few different directions you can take, all with some very fun roads. Speed limit reaches 100 regularly.

Definitely one of the best places to go on the coast, but not the only one.

Yeah you will go straight past my house
CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
