... except for the supercharged Grand Prix will be OBLITERATED by an Integra GS-R. OBLITERATED.

(these are personal results, in MPH, racing my practically-stock (just intake) 2000 GS-R against american cars)

Thunderbird LX: over 10 carlengths back on a 0-100 run. NO power.
Camaro (96+) 3800: 3-4 carlengths back on a 0-100 (very good driver, too)
Mustang LX (up to 98): SO far back (12-15?) on 0-100. A 5-spd Civic DX can keep up with one of these.
Mustang LX (99+): 5-6 carlengths back on a 0-100
1997 Camaro SS LT4 30th Anniv. Limited edition: about 10 carlengths ahead of me! though I saw him get beaten by a NOS'd MR2 one night

The only decently-powered V6's I can think of off the top of my head are the Nissan Maxima, Mercedes SLK320, and the BMW M3... OH MY GOD what crimes I would commit to get my hands on an M3!!!

The super'd Grand Prix will get beaten by a slightly worked-up 'teg (intake and new tires, actually). They do a 0-60 in about 7.2 stock, so it's a very even race. What it comes down to is the driver who best knows their car.

1. M3 is an inline 6, not a V6
2. i dunno but i thought the SLK had a fourcylinder

anyone?

[M-type]

the slk used to be 4 but when the s2000 came out, mercedes got scared and put a 6 i think, well what ever they have right now, its still cant beat the s2000.

True - the M3 is one seriously mean inline 6...
The SLK comes in a 230 and a 320 - 230 being their inline four 2.3L and the 320 being their V6 3.2L. Though not as fast as the S2000 stock, the SLK320's are very modifiable.

Yeah the new generation M3s are 13 second cars...the second to newest is still a low 14 second car.... my buddy right now has a 98 or 99(the year before the changeover) m3... but this coming fall he is getting on the waiting list for the 2003/2004 m3... its bonestock except for his license plate..

[asianINVASION]

i say go for it ... mustangs around here in the valley always trying that shyt around here too and thats cuz mine is just an ls ... if i can take a v6 auto you should be able to smoke him like a fat man does a turkey:bandit:

good luck


ahhhhhhhhh im over run by all the neons i see lol

[cheeta900]

i should laught at you only running 16.1. what do you got an automatic.
my pony is running stock 15.5 on the 1/4 v6 2002 ya its a pony but this pony will whoop yo lil 16.1 you best return it and buy a real car.maybe a real mans car something with a stick shift. what am i talkin about you probaly don't know what a clutch is

gotta agree with that mustang owner on this one..my friend brett has a 2001 with pulleys, cold air intake, exhaust, and new rear end gears, and he pulls between a 14.6 and 14.9 consistently. and he's not all that great of a driver. but the mustang sucks on the interior.

[kidrocket]

haha he said get a real car and he drives a V6 mustang
that made my day

[chad174]

lol that is pretty funny...i never has any respect for v6 stangs until brett got one and beat my slightly modded 2.2 cavy down. either way, a real mustang has 8 cylinders. thats a real car. a real import has 4 cylinders. thats a real car too.
