Around here, yuo would be lucky if you can find a cavalier/neon/civic/integra nicely modded. Thy're all, ALL, riced out with dumb kid's thinking their the shit. I have seen some good looking of these cars but then again, the driver ruins it all

Styling, price, and drivetrain. The VR4 is not a super car.

Anyhow, there are very few people around here actually tuning their cars. Most of them are rice or stock.

well i don't know about syling, if it performed like a ferrari the styling is just fine to me, but a supercar runs nothing higher than 12 sec in the 1320 and are no less than 150grand and have top speeds of over 200mph. i wouldn't even call a Z06 a supercar or a viper. a super car is the enzo, mclaren, carerra gt, koenigsegg, Zonda c12, F-50 etc those are supercars. not a car thats top speed is basiclaly 170mph and cost 44grand.

Off the subject, but I drove a 2001 Bullet Mustang today, pretty nice. Had decent power, but the best part was the exhaust note. Pulled out from a stop light and just went through 1st gear normal, shifted to 2nd, then nailed it and run it up to about 4500 or 5000 rpms and shifted to 3rd and it spun the tires and wiggled pretty good. I was impressed with it and I'm a Chevy guy.

yea, every body and their mullet wearing brother has a damn f-body around here. Thats just one of many reasons why I have a GN. man, I don't see how GNs are hard to find, seeing as how they made over 14k of thim in 1987 alone.

Ohio is the realm of Camaros and DSM's, mostly. It's kind of odd, even though there's a Ford engine plant in town (you know, where they made the Ford 351 Clevelands) there's a lot more pro-GM sentiment in town.

DSM's are popular probably because of their low cost and AWD. Snow/Rust Belt folks like us have to think about that cold white stuff at least six months out of the year.

Sorry bro, I havent seen a bigger advocate for the Z32 here than you 1viadrift, but its NOT a supercar. If the bar were lowered that much, then the Supra and RX-7 FD would be supercars too.

The Z is a TOURING CAR. Its NOT a sports car or supercar. But that shouldnt suggest you couldnt modify it to supercar speeds and power.

supra
rx7
vr4

The Japanese supercars are cars like the Nissan R390GT1 road car, Toyota TSO20. One could also make a case for the Orocho, the Dome, the Jiotta Caspitta, and other such one offs.

Currently in production, though, the closest thing to a "supercar" in production in Japan is the NSX, and that's more of a sub-exotic than a supercar.
