And this was my whole point, where You see a guy that claims that his 350hp (motor hp) civic could beat a Vette or even Ferrari (saying it like there is no difference for him whatsoever), I think it's just funny and that car wasn't all that fast anyways.
I am sure there are fast as hell civics... but this is not the case.. so quit popping up with all this import pride for now.

I just said that in THIS case, it is most likely BS and this particular Civis is not all that fast.
As far as Ferraris beeing imports, and my Camaro ? who cares..what does it have to do with anything? I am not popping up with some ricer pride. I was talking about one CAR in particular, You popped up with Civics beeing fast in general, that there are some fast civics bla bla bla...
Either way this is gonna go... Civic is still a Civic... Ferrari is a Ferrari... and I don't care if my Ferrari was 15sec 1/4mile.. I would drive it over a Civic w/o a question in my mind.

Talking in general won't work either, because like You saod, not all ferraris run same fast times, thing is we spoke about racing off the roll, as this is a advantage for a civic I assume in race against vette or camaro. Well there are some Ferraris with some well built motors and big TTs on them, which civic would not handle on the top speed in the end.

The management and engineering techniques aren't domestic.
You're saying that f-bodies having some production in Canada makes it an import right?
GM manufactures cars in like 33 countries. Thats why it's the largest auto manufacturing company in the world?

Nice kill btw......

350 and 400 are not the same. 800 lbs isnt all that much, and the trq will more than make up for that, not to mention the drivetrain on a vette as compared to a "93 civic". And 10k just to make 350 hp? Waste. Might as well have bought two civics.

now take that same 7k and put it into the vette
now in all fairness to you, 7k to get roughly 250hp i guess is justifyable, not the smartest route...but justifyable (ATI procharger around that price for fbod and get roughly 250-300 extra power.)
