I totally agree, I have told him two times that that sig has to go or he will keep catching crap.

If you say why not use a Z06, it would wipe all those cars out, then you have to step up the other cars models too. Let me see that Z06 wipe out a Z-tune Skyline, which is the same as a Z06, an upgrade of the car.

I like how there's a bajillion different reasons on here why the imports still rule. Price its price they're all cheaper and they beat the vette. The new Skyline is 85k that's not cheap. My mom's ex who owns a company in Japan has an R34 an paid over well over 45k. Also the NSX is more expensive than the vette too, the only "cheap" car on there was the EVO. I dont care how fast the evo is, I wouldnt buy one over the Vette. No one ***** ugly chicks for their personalities so why drive an ugly car for its quirks. If you're gonna bitch about C6 Z06 blah blah then they step up to a Z tune. Check out the Nurrenburg numbers if you care that much. Also I hate when people compare cars they dont own or could never own. I dont know how many times Ive heard "If I had an R34 Id toast you."

At least the guy driving the Vette give it kudos and say it's a fun car that he's impressed with. I'm not butt hurt or anything when I see that it gets last, because there are just better cars out there. The Vette is a great car for it's money though, and there's no denying it. That little Evo puts up a hell of a fight though, good for it. Those drivers all had a ton of skill too. Interesting that the Ferrari did so bad though, even though they are generally top-speed machines.

You ricer fans crack me up. Even if the Evo, or some other gay pos were to beat a much better car, your still in a pos ricer. Thats like me taking a C5 or C6 and beating a lambo or ferrari. It may cost a fortune more, but you have to be able to recognize a better car when you see one. Take a step back and look at a ricer and a vette. Go drive them both, then make your decision. If you choose the ricer at this point, good for you. You were meant for each other.

Not really into the overdone Japanese "King of the Streets". There cool, but they are family cars.
