Point being, the US makes MULTIPLE cars that can meet or exceed those specs. There is NOT ONE factory Japanese car that can do the same. If that was his point, it is valid.
Can you make a Skyline GT-R fast? Hell yeah. Is it that way stock? Not especially. Does that mean it's a bad car? No. But they are insanely overrated by most people (thanks, Gran Turismo / F&F). As are many Japanese "supercars".
Don't get me wrong, I really like a lot of Japanese cars. The FD3S and NSX are two of my favorites cars ever, and I really wouldn't mind owning one of them. But at the end of the day, the performance is lacking compared to what I am already driving.

Comparing stock vs stock, theres more domestics that can better 13.5 in the 1/4 mile than imports. I mean im all for building a fast carm not buying a fast car but facts are facts. Fine ill correct myself, theres a handful of fast imports that are stock but not many. Japanese cars arent ment to go fast in a straight line out of the facctory. Theyre made more for balance, handling, economy. Most american cars arent made for balance, handling, economy. Theyre made to go fast but only in a straight line. Notice how i said most. Theres cars like the new c6 that are pretty good handling cars.
All in all its pointless to debate this now. Both countries make cars good at some stuff and bad at other stuff. Done deal.

Too bad white boy started the car thing now the jap are gonna end it for them ehhehe. It's funny how the first car maker FORD can't even make a good car.

Wow, you are absolutely retarded. First off, stop being a racist bastard with all that white boy shit. Whould you be pissed if I said "Yeah, the yellow boys think they can pwn our cars with their crappy little I6's. They're gonna be so pissed, they'll turn orange (red+yellow...  ), they're so angry because these new V8's smoke them day in and day out"
The reason that car companies in Japan don't use the V8 is because of their harsh emissions standards and high fuel costs... not because they "don't want to make white boy look more stupid".
And hardly any of these fast japanese car's have V6's, they're inline 6's...
And as to ford not making a good cars?
I think you just need to dump all of that rice out of your head and open your eyes. Most "American Supercars" DOMINATE Japanese Supercars...
~Peace

Apparently you are too fucking retarded to realize that EVERYBODY else is talking about Japanese cars. Quit being a dumb cunt.
Who would say that European cars aren't fast stock? For a LONG time, the fastest (and most expensive) cars have been European... and apparently you are the only fucking idiot here that is brain dead enough to even consider adding them to this conversation. You know, the one in this "Camaro (American) vs. Skyline (Japanese)" thread?
Nice rep, BTW. Wonder how you earned that one...

Yeah... too bad the ENTIRE conversation has been about Japanese Vs. American cars in relation to speed. So obviously your comment has absolutely no bearing on said conversation. That being said, why don't you go get a new keyboard. Your capslock button appears to be stuck down.
