haha "I'm sick and tired of ppl talking about imports becoming superior in building sports cars" I would say it is true, what do you all think? GTR, LF-A, NSX, IS-F?

Who the fu-k would pay 90k for a GTR? the imports are way 2 much $$$,$$$ for what u get. they mite kick ass on the track (road course) but who cares, most are ran at street lights, highway rolls or strip.

i would pick vette C6-Z06-ZR1 over a GTR any day (around the same price range) imo

And a NSX is what 300+hp hahahaha. i guess that gives u a exceuse when u loose a race. u can say u had a passanger that weighted 220lb(camera man)
and btw how much did it cost?

-1 rep for you...seeing as you are one of those people who don't keep an open mind. You're close minded. Foggy field if you get my drift. Mustangs in my book are nay. But when it comes to Shelby's creations...I like. They are the only good looking present produced American made car IMO. Anywho can't wait to see one on the streets and see what it has to say to Mr. Boost.

On your comment 'SRT-4 8U' the NSX wasn't build for strips. So if they get a loss or two, I am sure it is no big deal to the owner seeming as everyone knows this and besides the facts...all the NSXs I have seen around here in Minnesota are boosted and running some nice numbers...not sure how it is everywhere else.

Your whole statement is contradicting. You start with Who the fu-k would pay 90k for a GTR? the imports are way 2 much $$$,$$$ for what u get remember that statement, now a little further on you say i would pick vette C6-Z06-ZR1 over a GTR anyday (around the same price range) since you seemed to have the GTR in mind I will use this car as well. The price for a Z06 is ~70k - ~80k USD and the GTR is ~70k to ~80K USD as well. (I have posted links from whare I got the prices). Now I think you would agree as well that the GTR a faster call all around than the Z06. So really you get more of a car than an american counterpart at the same price. jeez hey? The GTR is faster than a Ferrari F40 around the tsukuba track! mmhmm the F40 costed $400 000 smacks when it came out. wow the GTR definitaly cost too much for what you get. It is also faster 0-60 than a Mercedes Mclearen SLR which costs ~$500 000 smacks.

Just incase you dont know what a Ferrari F40 is:

You know wats funny about that whole Z-R1 thing.

The GTR has 200 less bhp and will still do 192.

It will also run the 1/4 in and around 11 seconds.

It will also walk all over the zr1 on the track.

Its nicer

And most importantly....It will last longer, and have a MUCH MUCH higher resale value.

the new GTR did not run a 7:38 on production tires. It ran a 7:38 on cut slicks, quoted the the driver himself.

yea i guess nobody in North America is a good engineer.

We should all close our schools and dance around camp fires because we do not possess the knowlege they have else where.


we are inferior. I wonder what kinda of jobs us NA's could do? i wonder if they would let us sweep floors in japan or something.
