Sorry, G37 does nothing for me. Might as well post up a Civic, does just as much for me. Being honest.
I'll stick with the LSX GM options...

i am not gunna lie the japs make a good car..the infinitis are sweet...but their is nothing better than hearing that sound of an american v8 and than watching it smoke the foreign cars...nd yea gm my be lacking in quality...but for example what were the japs making that was better the a gtp around 2000? accords and camerys werent shyt then.
i still think that GM quality is junk. the only thing GM cars have going for them is that if you do your own work fixing them is cheap as all hell. i love these cars, but i just want something different to play with.
although i have been looking at trailblazers and denalis lately.

Uhm which one of those wouldn't rape a Grand Prix...?
Why don't you go dig up Tim King's GP and then stack it up against any of those cars. Why don't you try comparing apples to apples??Quote:

Give me the same amount of money that any one of those cost - in that current form - and I will build you 2 GTP"s that will suck the ****ing paint off as they go by them. That's a guarantee.

^^ Tim Kings GP? The fastest GP is ZZP's and I can find you plenty of most of those cars that'll rape it and trust me that GP that they have isn't/wasn't cheap. Stock for stock they'd rape a GP so your still wrong.
Wow. There are good jap cars to mod and they're are ones that aren't so good to mod, I for one am not impressed with the 350z's and the G35's/37's. I know a kid with a G35 and yes it has an sts twin turbo kit, among other mods. My buddy lined up with him in his ctsV (stock m6) I was passenger. We went from a stop 3 times. 1st time ctsV got him from 1st to 3rd gear, the g35 slowly creped up, then the kid in the g35 missed a gear we won by default, the g35 was dead even with us, and i need i remind you the ctsV is completely stock, stock air box and everything. We went a 2nd time same thing as the first run. The 3rd time the g35 didn't miss any gear and he beat us by 1 car length. The kid gave all types of excuses why his car was slow blah blah blah, all the spectators were all disappointed, as was I.
Okay nothing is faster then my car. I'm just sayin:th_nanana:
^^ CTS-V is 10k more and has a V8...
Also 2010 CTS-V > G37, G8, GTO
/thread
my buddies cts-v is a 2005, i should have cleared that up, and the g35 was an 04 i think
^^ Still a V8 plus the price difference lol. For that price I'd get an IS-F that's like 400 some odd hp and would take the older CTS-V.
Stock for stock - yes - but what is the dollar/hp ratio?? That is the only true basis for this type of discussion. Jesus - I could go spend a cool million on a Veyron - and end of discussion - but somehow I think the $$/HP ratio is a bit off.Quote:

At $40K + for a 1998 Supra TT, and in a lot of cases I know they sold for over $50K - I don't exactly call 320HP worth it.
And the Skyline doesn't even factor in - as it wasn't a publicly exported vehicle.
So, again - keep it apples to apples and this could be a constructive discussion.

The Veryon costs 1.6Mil, has 1001 HP and top speed of 253 MPH.
The Ultimate Aero costs 550k, has 1183 HP and a top speed of 257 MPH.
Hm...also I think for the price of what he's saying I'd go for the Infiniti, it's classy but it's got the power when needed. Also off the line it's faster than a lot of cars because of it's AWD.
At the time 320 was a lot just so you know for the Supra, and it's very mod friendly.
ISF <> sexy...sorry. I mean...really?? WTF is this about??Quote:

And...now you tell me that you'd take a 400HP ISF with an MSRP of ~$57K over a 556HP CTS-V with an MSRP of ~$59K? Really???
-swash
G35 = turd
350Z = turd
G37 = HEAVY, but slightly less turd-like
Lexus IS(whatever) not impressive for the money - at all.
You need a money tree to properly mod a supra.Quote:
