An M3 will smoke a G20 anyday, sorry, but it will, even a modded G20.
When you see G20's, Civics, Vipers and Saleens racing, THEY ARE PURPOSE_BUILT, TUBE-FRAME RACECARS!!!!!!! They are in no way related to stock cars, so any comparision is useless. The only common part is the screw on the air-filter, and that is often replaced!!

I like G20's, but they need modding for me to buy one. Yes, the G20 and M3 is apples to oranges, but someone says the G20 is better. Maybe he was dropped on his head as a kid.

watch the video.. thats no race car... these are street races my friend...

:argue:


Just go away if you're gonna make uneducated comments like that. We were all fine without you before, and we certainly dont need you here now.

an e36 M3 was only 240hp or whatever... even less to the wheels. the e46 is 333hp, probably around 300 at the wheels... to try and say that a modded G20, or any car for that matter cannot achieve 300 wheel hp is a joke.

i know some guy near me who has a '92 vw gti which puts 540hp to the wheels and this is a daily driven car... so basically all i have to say is.... bite me, you can make any car go as fast as you want.. or as far as your wallet can take it.

...hey Chris, at least your toyota echo is fast!!!

peace.

Sorry ..man ..that is too funny boogie ...you must have a doctorate in sarcasm ...G20 rules....I don't care people love wondering what the hell passed them ...Shit I should get a buck everytime I impress other drivers on the highway ...infiniti or nissan are you listening ?

I hate to add to this dung slinging but....

I do think that the G20 is a better car than the M3, if i had enough money to afford an M3 i would more than likely think differently though. For me, a college student, a G20 is a great car. It's quick (getting faster all the time), handles great, and can competitivly get me around the track if I decide to run at an event. (just wish i could drive better--> practice, practice, practice...)
I bought my first G20 when I was 16, and now own my second one. I am very very close to a 14 second quarter mile now as is (assuming if i could get a decent launch). I think that is very respectable for a 4 dr family sedan
Oh yeah, and the handling, it suprises pretty much every single person that rides in my car and that is with stock bushings and no stb's. I'm almost thinking a 1.0 on a skidpad isn't out of the question, but that's just speculation, and what do i know... i'll have to get my g-tech out to a skidpad one of these days...

So to all you that are trying to rain on my parade :finger:

when i said 87 caravan could beat the G20...well.. maybe you didn't catch my sarcasm

[G22DET]

This "chris" dude drives an Echo??? hahahahahahaha...well, i guess i shouldnt make fun of echoes cuz they do travel pretty fast......speed of sound right?

dont worry chris, i know it's a joke, you are probably happy in whatever you drive...and you are providing us with some entertainment and something to laugh about (you) with your ignorant statements and uneducated comments.

keep in mind that most people in this forum are mature and serious about the car so if you are between the age of 5 to 10...I hears there's this place in called Lego Land in California that lets childern, 12 years old or younger, in for free. That way you can build some super duper Lego cars and race them....you might be able to impress little girls

GOOD LUCK!!!!

No, I got it, After rereading what i wrote, i should have added more faces or something to it, cause it sounds real seroius, when it shouldn't have been like that. I didn't mean anything bad by what i said, just that I wouldn't want people coming on this forum talking shit or ragging on G20's, just the same way i'm sure a mustang board doesn't want to hear about camaros, etc...

Oops...

[Chris]

No, I don't drive an echo, they suck (not the sound, the car)
Yes, any car, modded enough can be awesome. What I should have said is basic modding (lowering, stiffer bushings and shocks, that stuff, thicker anti-roll bars, bigger wheels-tires, engine mods [nothing crazy, like blowers or turbos, NOS ok, no internal stuff])
Yes, for the money the G20 is a good car. It is very Eureopean. It handles well, goes ok in a straight line (It is kinda weak, though, it should have 200 hp. That can be done easily enough)
The M3 is a better car, but it is twice as much on a good day.
EVERYONE is optimistic about their car. For the money, the G20 is as good a handler, eureopean type car you can get. And I'm slightly older than 10.

I just got back and read all these replies and my subject has gone way off the coarse. Replies about 0-60 would be pretty good. But i dunno, thats just my opinion. Its all good wit me. peace

[primera_gte]

so does anyone know what the 0-60 time for a 2002 g20?

[b-b00gie]

not too sure... havents seen many reports cause every year the car reviews are like... "the g20 hasnt changed"

i do know that the 99's (manual) were 0-60 8.5seconds stock. the 00+ have 5 more hp and different 1st and 2nd gears which accelerate faster off the line... so i'm guessing a stock 2002 G in manual will do about 8 to 8.3 seconds

[primera man]

This Primera 2.0L CVT has a 9.6sec 0-60MPH
