The asian car war doesn't include america. AS MUCH AS YOU want it too it doesn't... if it did??? They would be building V8 muscle. The extent of the competition between america and japan is this... we can build a better quality car, a better handling car and a car that can rival your v8's in the quarter mile with less displacement and a smaller engine.

The asians see our mentality towards motorsports as simplistic. In 1969 the Z was designed to copy 1961 ferrari performance on a budget. The american mentality was how can we make a car bigger. Where they glorify complex roadcourse in car engineering. We drag race and go around in circles in stock cars. Its a different philosophy dude.

The only people that see competition is americans at japan. Not the other way around. Asia to Asia is another story. America sometimes puts themselves in the middle of arguments or competitions where the other party doesn't care. If you want a mustang competitor? Buy a camaro.

The Z has to step up on hyundai. Besides. KEY POINT the Z is a V6. When the mustang V6 can outdo a Z. I will get back at you on your statement.
