it might be ugly but damn its ugly in all the right ways. Ofcours the base models are always worse, look at a protege LX vs a mazdaspeed.

Do you really know what torque steer is? Try living with a FWD with a V6 240+ hp. I'm just being a s***!

I feel your pain man. Ever driven an Altima SE-R? What an animal. Darn fine car though! I really liked those when I worked at the dealership.

...and you consider the CTS-V the same class as the MSP? or the GTO for the matter?

CTS-V went around the Nurburgring faster then the M3, which pretty much is a bragging right when it comes to handling tests.

And that right there is a FACT!

What kind of question is that? Of course I've driven a SE-R. I too worked at a Nissan stealership. You do not know me then. I'm always test driving cars.

That pic of the Saleen is hot.

And the SRT-4 sucks in canyons. For being fwd that car really likes to swing its ass.

 

[Black_Protege_5]

I still need to drive the New SE-R. Looks like a nice car.

Its ok but a SE or SL is a better buy then the SE-R. Its not new anymore because the 07s are out. No SE-R in 07.

hell no, just proving a fact that american sports cars are not just straight line cars.

The SRT-4 would swing its ass with the Mopar suspension. My cousins was a Stage 3 SRT-4 and that would out handle a MSP, Sentra SE-R, and WRX. Lets see if I start a war on that.

...OK well I'll go back and change my orignal post to reflect cars should be spoken about in the same class/ballpark then... then some validity can be had here...

hell no, just proving a fact that american sports cars are not just straight line cars.

Point made... stock the SRT is sucky on the coarse... and how much for that Stage 3 setup?... WOW... I could MOD the living hell out of my MSP with that coin...

I don't know what SRT-4 I was behind. All I know is that I gave about a 20sec lead and I was on his ass in the 6th turn. I had to back off behind cuz I guess he felt pressured and I didn't want him going off the cliff.

Actually I do not remember the prices of the Mopar mods. I do not think it was alot.

His brother is doing the GM Performance stages to a 06 Cobalt SS Supercharged.

Factory performance parts are the best!

dodge ran a SRT4 with stage 1 and mopar coil overs at One Lap of America and won their class beating many EVO's and STI's. They are great cars, you guys just don't know how to drive.............seriouly.

 

[Black_Protege_5]

I want an NSX

 

[Black_Protege_5]

But we were talking about the stock SRT-4. That coilover set-up is like 2 grand.

Ah, a fellow former Sales-weasel! Much props to you man. Thanks for always keeping us posted on the new car info! Forgive my ignorance. I'm relativly new to the boards so I don't really know a lot of people.
