Is Nissan's NISMO 370Z A 50 Percent OFF GT-R?

I agree. A sloppy joe > california roll. That's just the truth.

lol I didn't even think of it that way. So true.

Poorly-composed, lame articles like this make me want to do automotive journalism just to show how retarded some of these guys are...

The problems I notice with most automotive journalists are:

1.) they don't know jack **** about cars, and don't hide this fact very well
2.) they think they know way more than they actually do, and drop technical jargon in incorrect or inappropriate ways making them look like complete idiots to real enthusiasts
3.) they are biased, paid-off ********
4.) they cannot write to begin with
5.) they glamorize the most boring, basic pieces of **** the same way they do proper sports and exotic cars

I can't figure out the greater of the two evils: automotive journalists or car salesmen.

A Car & Driver journalist... that's what. Not only do they write about cars, they sell BMWs.

Add to that list

6 ) they write an impassioned and opinionated article about a vehicle and then contradict themselves on the same vehicle six months later.

Me! I'm a sushi lover, believe me, but I just don't like the Cali rolls.
