YES I said "Italian Trash" and I'll say it again........ITALIAN TRASH.

And I'm part Italian so kiss my a$$........:finger:

The cars maybe LOOK sweet , but just wait til you actually own one and it spends more time in the repair shop than in your own garage

My two cents as a domestic guy?

The 3000GT VR4 is a pile of junk. Who wants a friggen land yacht? Just go buy an old 78 Lincoln Towncar with the 460 and deck and port the heads, get a $150 intake for it. It'll be just as fast, weigh about the same, and you'll be able to seat about 10, lol. The trap speed on the VR4 is barely any better than a new Mustang GT, and it's only advantage is off the line, if you choose to take the life of your tranny/clutch into your own hands. Mitsubishi isn't exactly world class with the quality they put into their cars, and the 3000GT is no exception to that rule.

I'm sure an 11sec 3000GT really jumps off the line quick, but stock, unless you want to blitz the tank from redline, it's just gonna bog.

The 300ZX TT is a far superior car IMHO. I'd actually own one, if I was in the market for a Japanese supercar.

Who has the best women? I'd have to wager the Russians. I haven't heard of any "Mail Order Italian Brides." Getting a mail order bride is about the only thing more scary than buying cars off ebay that don't come with photos LOL.

Best cars? Everybody wants a Ferrari, don't they?

Best clothes? USA

Best food? USA

as much as i love nissans i'm going to have to go with the VR-4 just by past driving experience. AWD twin turbo, you can't beat that. and when it comes to looks the 3000gt is far above the 300ZX. the only area i see that the 300ZX has the advantage is it's weight.

If you were to race from a roll, the ZX would also have the advantage due to driving only 2 wheels.

Little late on this one, but I say the ZXTT. Love the looks of the 3kGT but theZXTT is quicker, lighter, and like others have said, from a roll it has the advantage.

3000gt's handle bad compared to Z's...... I've seen some z's racing and I've ridden in some VR-4's. Also my dad's shop calls em Mitsushiti.... they do have bad quality...... can't compare to a Nissan, I believe they are the best designers and best reliability..... I see more hondas breaking down then Nissans... but there are more Hondas.

3KGT interior is also cheaper then hell, extremely uncomfortable, small headroom, im 6' and my head hits the roof, all i see is some roof and a little bit of window below that LOL.... its terrible drivers car. were the Z has always been made to be the all around Driver's sports car and has always succesfully done that, why even 240Z's are even as popular as new one's. Even 510's..... how many other Japanese sports cars from that far ago have followings like that =)

I got a Video all about handling and it had NSX GTR's Ferrari's and some hot hatches

The VR4 was last on handling stakes

Richard Burns commented on "too much of this" 'turns wheel left and right tire screaching can be heard thru apex'

I heard mitsushiti b4

Let me point out that the interior of the 3KGT is not cheap. Its way superior to the 300. Let me know where your datas shop is so I can be sure to let my buddies know not to take their car there. I know people with the 300Z and it seems like their car has to be in the shop for something every other year. I've had my cars a combined 13 years and they've been in the shop three times total for repairs - including that damn deer.

I'm 6'1" and 240+ and I have plenty of head room and space in the car (including the Spyder with the top up). I don't think you've ever been in, or ever driven a VR4.
