**pecha** · 07-20-2009, 07:05 PM

seen one a couple of weeks ago at work

the owner said he liked it better than a ferrari he had before

Come on, imports? Stick with gm, they would NEVER make a car with a tranny that'll explode. Rear ends either. Oh wait.. The difference is that a bullet proof 4l60 is 3.5k, moser 12 bolt 2.5k. Not a stocker that costs 20k and will need to be rebuilt if you drive spirited again

I think they're nice

**wheeliE-maxx** · 07-20-2009, 08:06 PM

Gm had to kill the Ute (g8 st) AND Pontiac.

I would have sold one of my kidneys for one

**bodyman5000** · 07-20-2009, 08:26 PM

They had a black one where I work that a dealer brought in to have detailed. Mean looking car and I bet it would be cool if you were into video games and shit.

I would take a turbocharged big block Chevelle any day of the week over it though.

I would rather see an "appreciate pictures of vegetables" thread.

**JwMonE99** · 07-20-2009, 09:40 PM

I rather have a K20 Civic over the GTR

**issues** · 07-20-2009, 10:31 PM

hate the gtr but really want to race one

**snaggeltooth** · 07-20-2009, 10:57 PM

I think Id take a 370Z put a TT in it , buy a 2010 GT500 and still have $30k to play with ...

they're nice because they're built with GM parts.

when they stuff an LSx into a toyaki or kawasuzunissan then we can talk imports.

yeah I could never understand what people mean by "imports"
is it import because it's from an overseas company?
is it import if it's built in a different country?

tell you what, buy one ... then wait 2 weeks every time you need parts .. then you will know why we call them imports ...
