only america is going the way of muscle cars. i hate the idea of so much power not getting to the ground. dont have 400 hosres and 0-60 your is being beat by a 4 banger with 271 hp, your 1/4 miles time is better by a few 100s of a sec. you top speed are both governed at a few apart, your handles dont even compare. my point ever one rants aneaves about sound i say so what. i want a sleeper car not something that other residents would complain about. and most of all torque and power means nothing if ya have trouble getting it to the ground. oh and in the late 60s japan was content with putting tvs in ya home.

Re: There really is no point to this.
Holy crap learn how to type properly, I feel like I just read a post in Slovakian.
Your enthusiasm to cars is of little of value to me, especially reading the first line in your signature. Also, yes there is more to racing then a straight line, there are many forms of racing and drag racing is one of them. You obviously like drag racing if you take bullshit lines from those stupid Fast and Furious movies because those '10 second cars' were all about it. There is no need to disrespect Nascar either, it's the art of racing at high level speed, one small mistake can cost you your life. That means you are always filled with adrenaline, if you don't like it then, that's great but I don't care. I would never call someone like you a real car enthusiast. To me a real car enthusiast is someone who has the utmost respect for all forms of cars, especially the eras of cars that started most of the crazes today, you are not one of those people. Edit: Sorry, we are talking about cars here, not TV We are, right? |

Darn mods banned me and now I have to use a new name, fortunetly I can change my name and IP in only about 45 seconds. Anyway this is Jared_80 and what is this carp that you are talking! The Evo runs a 13.0 if you want to argue that argue with motor trend! Yea if you put a stupid driver in it it probably will only run a 14 second 1/4 mile but the same is true for the Cobra too so lets skip the stupid numbers spin and stick with recorded numbers and reality. If you don't want to do that than you are too stupid to argue with anyway. For the seven thousand dollar difference between the Cobra and the Evo I could easly tweek the eve into the low 12s or high 11s. Don't beleve me just read what SCC did to their Evo!! As far as your fastest Evo crap I'll easly find you one that totaly smokes that where do you get this nonesence from???? Anyway I gatta go just keep telling yourself that the SVT will alyays be faster and maby you will convence yourself that it is true in spite of reality, or you can wake up and see that that four door four banger famaly car beats your expensive unpractical unrelieable musclecar in nearly every proformance test.

All American "Phsyo"... you make one more inflammatory post like that, ANYWHERE, that I see, and you'll be banned again. You don't have to act like an immature asshole to express your opinion. And about your post... 1. I've already told you many times that Motor Trend did not run a 13.0 in that EVO! You are seriously thick headed to still not understand that's a corrected time. Cut the magazine racing already! 2. Low 11's with $7000 in an EVO? The Norris Designs EVO has over $110,000 invested, and with over 600 hp to the wheels it runs 10.8. |

Re: There really is no point to this.
I truly wish you weren't, you're making all of us import drivers look bad. If you're about cars that accelerate fast, corner hard, perform well in general, you're a car enthusiast, cuz there are cars that match that made everywhere. If all you like is japanese imports, you're just as close minded and ignorant as the guys who only like Mustangs or the guys who only like trucks.
i own a grand am, i do like more then just japanese import i have to talk then up when others are putting them down. y is it that muscle car guys arnt respecting the evo oh my there's a good question? 1. I've already told you many times that Motor Trend did not run a 13.0 in that EVO! You are seriously thick headed to still not understand that's a corrected time. Cut the magazine racing already! ok did i read wrong when i read Motor trend ran a 13.08 in the evo? i do wear glasses. 2. Low 11's with $7000 in an EVO? The Norris Designs EVO has over $110,000 invested, and with over 600 hp to the wheels it runs 10.8. did they not know what they were doing $110,000 invested in my car i could do that or better.

im not even going to try arguing here anymore, its like a couple import fans, and the whole muscle car forum, what the hell is the point?
i dont care on how a car looks or sounds, it all matters on speed handling, and lots of power isn't always a good thing, to me american cars are unreliable they suck when i was younger, every american car my parents had owned had broken down more than once a year, now all they drive is japanese toyotas and hondas and other cars like that, and my mom has only had to get it into the shop once, and that was when a dear jumped in the way

Power to weight? 1999 Nissan Skyline GTR 205.8 kw / 276.0 bhp @ 6800 rpm Torque 293.0 nm / 216.1 ft lbs @ 4400 rpm 1666 kg / 3673 lbs 1970 Plymouth Hemi `Cuda 316.9 kw / 425.0 bhp @ 5000 rpm 664.35 nm / 490.0 ft lbs @ 4000 rpm 1642 kg / 3620 lbs I don't think you need a calculator, and remember that nearly all of the factory engine statistics for muscle cars were false, very false. In any way there is no good reason to compare new cars to old cars anyway, they are decades apart in technology and statistics. If you would prefer a 270hp car compared to a 500hp car then that is great. There is still no need to state the obvious, that a new car, in a completely different category, is faster in some stakes then a car that is 30 years old and built on the technology that was available at the time. If anything I think anyone who likes any car, should love all older cars, just like young people should respect the elderly. |
