I'm surprised you haven't started another 6mt vs 7at debate. And bro, why you mad?

I know I have beaten a lot of cars at the drag strip because I go race there. The Internet is full of information out there and as I have stated two times above, all muscle cars are faster on paper. What I did say is the average joe, that's you and me there boys and girls, that race out there. I don't have a racing license or a sponsorship to say I'm a pro but I'm not a shitty driver either. Horsepower means absolutely nothing when you can't use it that's why they get beat. I ain't mad bro but dont insinuate that the Internet is always right. You are getting information on bias reviews.

Oh yea, and yes the autos are better. Or have you forgotten since you troll threads and don't even own a Z any longer. Way to go bro

So some kid posted on the GT86 forum "Would an FRS kick an Evos *** around the track if it had same WHP, suspension, etc...". Not exactly an 86 at that point. ******* dimwitted morons. I wrote 'Would an 86 kick an F-22 Raptors *** if it had wings and 70 thousand pounds of thrust?"

So he pretty much wanted to know if an evo with an FRS badge would beat an evo?

From my experience on that forum i'm guessing that some people legitimately took him serious and actually tried to make a case for the GT86 beating an evo?

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?

mishuko · 11-05-2014, 09:09 AM

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?

Lol, you still running your suck? I didn't know I wasn't allowed in the forum anymore just because I sold my Z... especially since I paid to be a premium member for the entire 3+ years I've been on here, and the fact I always try to give advice when people are having mechanical issues. But I know you've contributed as well, by reiterating over and over in every post how great of a race car driver you are and how you've beaten every car at the track. And of course lets not forget, justifying why you bought an auto Z whenever someone mentions manual. I just moved last year from the Killeen area, but I tell you what... The next time I have a mission down at Ft. Hood, I'll stop by and give you a hug. You seem like you need someone to talk to. Feel better little buddy?

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

So the only 911 that I can't think of that had an unreliable motor was the 964. And I didn't buy one because well I'm a z nut.

I've never met a 911 owner who's still on the original motor.
I've also never met a 911 owner with over 100,000 miles.

The cars are junk. Research the issues they have.
Porsche simply doesn't care about reliabality.

Why do they have low claims? Because owners don't drive them!!!!

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.

I don't know much about Porsche, but the guy that bought my Z owns a 911. He loves it and tracks it often. He did say that his burns oil though, and Porsche owners go by "if it doesn't burn oil, something is wrong with it",

The 964's leaked burnt oil they were notorious for that. The heads need to be rebuilt more so than most cars I'd say but keep in mind this is all mostly due to owner neglect more often than not. Its like anything if you take care of a car properly it shouldn't have any major issues unless it is a manufacturing defect.
