I like the IS300, but it doesnt give me a chub unless it has a huge turbo strapped to it

I dont understand taking 1 side in the import VS domestic disputes, i like some imports and i love american muscle but I do give the import kids there props. If your car is fast and built right i dont care what it is lets race or take it for a ride and have some fun. I like both imports and domestics so much I have a T/A and a Supra im trying to build both. I dont care what country its from as long as it can put my head back when I slam that gas.

i concur....i like anything quick

whether a t/a or a camaro or a vette looks better or worse than each other is purely an opinion and is a stupid thing to debate.

i like what ive seen with toyota in this country because it seems that they are trying to contribute to this economy with more and more plants and more manufacturing state side. i have no real problem with toyota and i actually dont mind the newest tundra they put out-but i still wouldnt buy it over a chevy.

chrysler to me is just a cluster fuck and the experiences ive had with my dad having a chrysler product have left me pretty salty towards their attitude, service, and car quality. i cant speak of their cars from 2004 ,model year to present but my dad has an 03 voyager and i had a 2001 cirrus. things go haywire despite highway miles, light drivng, and proper maitenance at suggested intervals.

i have owned a toyota pick up that would not stop running, i owned a 94 explorer that took more shit than i could ever throw at it with one tranny rebuild and nasty sagging of the front i beam suspension, and all the chevy products ive owned have been reliable as hell.

my dsm was a piece of garbage. i suppose thats when i was through caring about imports and started viewing chrysler in the same manner....

oh well.

Agreed. In fact, I've found many newer Domestic cars that actually are much nicer quality than their import competition. In fact, the new GM truck interiors are so nice that Toyota had to delay the introduction of the Tundra last year at the last minute to redesign the interior in order to at least try and match the GM trucks. The tables have turned, finally.

maybe a few years ago qualities were different but the domestic market realize they had lost millions by assuming that americans would still pay the same price for lesser quality simply because these cars were "american". the rapid profit loss has humbled ford and gm to say the least and has caused them to really step up their game all across the board.

Exactly. With everyone buying imports, the Domestic manufacturers had to step up their game in order to win back customers. They had to make cars that were better than the imports, not just the equivelent.

Wow, that's hilarious!!! I got my first warning bickering with Wesman, and now me, an Evo driver and a Mustang driver all find ourselves agreeing with the guy who just might be the most commonly disagreed with member on this site!!!

So I raced my friends Turbo AWD DSM for the first time tonight from 45-100. Well he passed me at first and got about a car on me, up to 90 he had me by two, but I stopped his pull then and by 100 I was sloowwwwwly creeping, but nothing close enough to catch him. So yeah at 100 we both cut off for the red light......

Oh yeah and I was in the 3.8 :whistle:

My friend has a B18 in a "bubble", its slow as shit. He has full bolt ons, cams, 5 speed, rear seats delete. I don't see the point of swapping a motor if you're still going to be running 15's :rolleyes:
