Please. All this sh*t stems from the fact that Rev's daily driver is faster than 99% of peoples stock turbo cars here.
QFT.
Yeah I'm tired of the mother fucker too.
Thinking that having a faster car means a better car is equal to thinking your girlfriend having a better job means she is a better catch.
Tired of me? I don't even know who you are guy.
And who said I think I have a better car because it's faster? Don't put words in my mouth. The car we're talking about here is a daily driver. It's my slower car of the two I own. Trust me I understand it's not even close to anything remotely fast. Nor do I think it's the best car out there. How about you leave my opinions to me before you think on my behalf next time.
Even comparing a stock gti to a stock 370z etc. is not fair. They are different cars in different categories. Think of what Germany offers vs what japan offers. Germany has the autobahn. Our cars are meant for 1) high speed safety 2)high speed stability. End of story. They are "engineered" and not thrown together to fill a niche in the market.
Japanese cars are like bicyles at walmart - huffy, etc. There's a shit load of them plus they look like quality, but they are thrown together and inferior.
There are exceptions to Japanese cars not being engineered. For example, nissan engineered the gtr on the nurburgring. Koreans at hyundai reverse engineered the genesis coupe to be stiffer than an e46 M3. This means they know Germans make better driving machines - ultimate ones in fact.
I also wanna throw in the 370z has nice lines and proportions but the head and tail lights are as squinty as any Japanese man woman or child I have ever seen.
The g37 coupe is big and has a sleek roofline but no other lines. It looks like a grandpa car minus two doors. It lacks laser welding, especially in the roof. It may have an LSD. It may have what qualifies as leather. It still looks like a hibachi chef to me. >)
335i is way more car. Handsome as any European, and the look won't ever be outdated.
S200 I think looks nice year after year but lacks power considering you give up 2 seats, trunk room, and practicality.
And yes I have a jetta because I can't afford a $40+k car now. But if I did I would get a 335i. And then I would post on bmw forums and not toyota forums saying how awesome my car is.
True our cars aren't re fastest, but when we lose we are comforted by our cars being superbly engineered.
:bellyroll: Wow you're ignorant. Guy, we're talking about GTI's here. What exactly do you mean when you say what
Germany has to offer? We're not talking about $85,000 M5's, Porsche GT's or AMG Mercedes-Benz's that were built with speed in mind. We're talking about the Volkswagen GTI and how it compares to Z's and G's.
Or were you just rambling off on your own thought?
1) You live in America, no? 2) You drive a Jetta, no? What exactly is it about you Jetta that is "meant for high speeds"? :lol:
And I guess the Z and G's were never "engineered" either. That's just something you'll only find German car companies doing these days, huh? :lol:You should hear yourself.
Your thoughts on certain lines and cars lacking power is an opinion. Yes, you are entitled to your own. But it is nothing more then that. An opinion. None of these statements are facts. All of those said cars can have valid arguments made
for or against them in the looks and performance department.
I must say though, kind of ironic hearing a guy driving a car that comes with 200chp complaining about certain cars that lack power. The S2000 you complain about happens to excel at something other then just straight line racing. You know, some people actually care about going around a corner faster then others. And for what it is, the S2000 is a great car anyway you look at it.
So now that
YOU are the one bringing 'quality' into the conversation. Please enlighten me what 'quality' feature exactly your Jetta has that my G or someone else's Z wouldn't have. Or better yet, what kind of engineering your car posses that you won't find inside one of the Nissans?
my generalizations are because im an asshole...not a retard
