With an entire section dedicated to GT86 vs (insert car) i am not surprised.

Just curious, i wonder if there has been a GT86 vs skyline GTR or Mclaren?

Oh, what was one of the really overzealous one besides the the C7? I think someone did an Aventador comparison?

in all honesty i view the FRS as a super crappy version of a ferrari... i mean the tail lights reminisce me of them atleast...

i like the FRS / BRZ for being able to put 'affordable' sports cars back onto the market and giving a bit more selection. we're not like in the 90's with the countless japanese sports cars which is depressing for me because i could barely walk when they were around.

so when will all these hellaflush i don't care attitudes change to a 'true car enthusiast' attitude?

( Click to show/hide )
Probably when they grow a pair

O for f*ck sakes... hey lets turn another thread into a 6MT vs. a 7AT debate... auto's are quicker to 60 and possibly around a track, 6MT's are more engaging. there we go, everyone wins

To anyone who thinks Porsche doesn't make crappy cars:

It took this guy making a viral video with millions of vides and international news coverage before Porsche would step up and fix his POS car.

My response (pretty sure Ill be banned now-again)

Bet you have the design of the Camry's tail lights burned into memory by now.
There isnt a track on Earth your gutless wonder is quicker around. lol"

Disrespect is variable. In Hicktown Missouri, the Z draws envy and stares, in Hollywood, Ca it could be disrespected. Every forum for every car finds that forum's members disrespecting other cars. The Z forum often disrespects other cars and likewise.

In the end, if you are happy with who you are, then what others think does not matter. Its only when you are searching for your identity or you are not an inner dirrected person then what others think becomes important.

Yes it does matter. If I can't make fun of people and talk crap about their Cars, then there is no point in living.

Not everyone has the need to put down others for their choices. The fact that you find it pointless to live without putting down people or hurt their feelings because they think highly of their a Civic SI or Mustang or Genesis, tells a lot about you. Me, I like to think Z owners are kind and gentlemanly and above that crap.

It was a joke, I've owned many different cars. I like all cats, and cars.

I think the Z gets more respect than most realize. It is usually used in comparison to the other cars to meet or beat its ability's. I really dont hate on other cars unless you drive a Pacer or something like that but playing the variables game with them is interesting thus this type of debate.
