I think that has to be the stereotypical answer from your average American, the only American cars i like are the old school ones like Shelby Cobra , Mustang GT fastback , 63 Corvette stingray ..... and thats about all ..... WOW you can go fast in a straight line , get that shit on the track and see how well that whale boat of a car handles !!!!!!

No one else can offer the performance to price compremise that the japanese do ...... i'll even admit myself that the majority of the cars are shitely made and your top 3 is pretty slack ..... you have the 3 shittest jappa cars ever made in my opinion , #1 A HONDA ...... seriously wheres the logic in that ..... yea its the best car Honda has ever made but its STILL a Honda, #2 350z are so heavy and the power doesnt even make up for it , #3 is allright i suppose , better than the new version but still a crap car, Quite honestly im not surprised at your choices given your "As an American car enthusiast , I always respected thse Jap cars..the rest is faggit shit!!" statement.

THE ONLY people who know how to make cars are the Europeans (this is not my opinion , THIS IS FACT) BMW M3 CSL , Mercedes CLK GTR , Any Lambo , Any Ferrari.

So if your gonna come in this thread and start talking shit then be prepared for some agro
You need to get over the "ricer" bullshit and just respect them as you would any other car !

That is all !

...Like I said , faggit shit!

well, my so called faggot shit car runs a consistant 12.5 @ 109... and puts down 300hp to the wheels.. not to mention, i'm still running the stock exhaust..

but it's not like you care.. I love the Z06, but I can't afford one. the new challenger looks promising though.

not bad for a 2.0 4banger.

Hey I respect your cars power and numbers never lie..they just look geeky..

i agree, they do indeed look geeky, esp the pic you put up there...

but for the most part, i bought it because i couldn't afford the zo6 and i wanted a pure performance car.

like i said before... i hope the challenger doesn't change much from what it looks like now....

it sure does look promising.

All this talk is stupid. Who gives a shit how well a car runs on a track or how fast it can get to 60mph or how fast it run 1/8 of a mile? It all comes down to how well the driver can drive through the city streets at 45mph without wrecking. I'm pretty sure all cars can handle that.

unless you are running from the cops




or a cuban gang banger hell bent on killing you out of revenge because your homie popped a cap in his brudas ass




yeah shit like that happenes to me all the time





to some guys their horsepower is like the size of their cock.... unless its bigger and better than yours.... they feel like a little girl

R 34 Skyline

Evo 9

Honda Nsx

...I have a 1989 Mustang GT 25th Anniversary..fast as shit, I dont know the "quarter mile" or exact shit, but the car was respected in 1989..and still respected now..I bought it because when I was in High School it was the badass car to have..so now I do...I dont race it, I dont run from cops, but the car just looks cool, mean and tough...I get oohhs and ahhs everyday I drive it..and it Sounds mean too!...thats my point about American cars..

Yeah, a lot of Japanese cars look pretty gay with their bigass spoilers and the lighting underneath that is supposed to be cool. Now Mustangs and Corvettes are some sexy son of a guns. But a Nissan, that's just lame.

...thanks for the back up.........

My first sports car was a 1984 Toyota Supra. It leaked 3 liters of oil per half hour when i bought it. After tearing the engine appart and replacing all the seals it ran lie a dream. It only had 150 hp from a straight six, but somehow it felt fast. It was a very well balanced car. I also like the Acura NSX, and the last RX-7. I like the idea of the rotary engine. Its a shame more cars don't use it. Its power to size/weight ratio is unsurpassed, however it still has problems which have not been worked out.


I beg to differ with the general opinion that American cars are shit. I notice most of those that beleive so are not from the US. Most probably have not seen recent American cars upclose, let alone driven one. Currently I drive a 1996 Chevrolet Camaro z-28, it boasts not only a 0-60mph 5.4 sec, but also a .89~.90g on the skidpad, and a 600ft slalom speed of 67 mph STOCK from the factory. Thats from an 11 year old car. In comparison, a 2004 VW Golf R32, has a 600ft slalom of 66.5 mph, and .87g on the skidpad. Also, it costs $3,000.00 more than the 2002 camaro (last model produced). The last Evo does .90g on the skidpad and the MSRP: $28,679 - $35,180. These "economy" sports cars are neither better nor cheaper than American sports cars, they are just built to a different standard. In the US we like a large displacement, v-8 powered, 2 door, rear wheel drive, tiny back seat, sports cars. It's just a matter of taste. But don't ever say American cars don't perform!! And the Corvettes are not the "only diamond in a pile of shite." Next time, do a little research, before insulting others.

Finally, for those that would argue that you can take a $20,000 dollar civic and make it outperform a corvette, a camaro, or a mustang, I'll say: If I pumped 10 grand into my 10 year old z-28, it would outperform most Ferraris.

Well said Luke..thanks for the post!!

Honda NSX with a turbo with many improved parts is a pure killer! Even the stock NSX is a skyline killer, and I've seen many sick clips where turbo NSX beats everything what comes it's way.

And a stock civic type-r can beat many BMW's too. So you can't say "hey, it's just a honda". They have real performance.

Why is this NIssan Skyline not in the States??..If it is so badass it would be here...

i beg to differ too, most americans that think their cars are awesome have never seen a european road, or a typical english country lane that twists and turns. Ive said before, my gf's dad is an american car nut, he has had and still has all kinds of american cars. I can comment on how shit they are, because ive driven em. The last one he had was an '95 eagle talon tsi, which supposedly has great handling and grip according to you lot because of its 4WD and its strut front suspension and stabiliser... Bollocks!!! Quick in a straight line, but come to any bends, and its like putting ya feet down on a bike to take a corner. The thing had more body roll than a boat, and its the same with most american cars ive driven.

But saying all that, i do love american cars... not so much the new ones, but the classic muscle cars.

Watty the Eagle Talon was a Jap platform that crossed over..basically a Mitsubishi Eclipse..so no wonder it is faggit shit
