I figured I had to because everyone knows the Japanese are better at arguing than Americans are.

X C L S I O R s i x s p e e d By the way a Civic Si still isn't a sports car because it's still a Civic just with more power and firmer suspension. Mind you I don't count anything FWD as a sports car. Not the Si, the typeR and mugen RR Here you go. s i x s p e e d Mind you I don't count anything FWD as a sports car. On that note, while I am inclined to agree with Friv's point of view in most cases, I am having a hard time buying that the Focus RS with its fighting game special move sounding "Revo Knuckle" they have in Europe isn't a sports car. Then again, it's no Civic (in whatever factory guise we choose to compare it to).

I like brands based on what cars they produce.
I love Ford pick ups, even though i tend to be more of a Chevy guy.
I also tend to like American cars more due to bigger engines and they tend to last longer in the long run and still produce more power.
Im also a big fan of Toyotas, specially them older Landcruisers.

The one thing I do think about all of this bullsh!t is that domestic auto makers make better cars for their domestic audience (American for America, Japanese for Japan, German for Germany, etc.). If the American audience want gobs of power at the cost of fuel efficiency American automakers deliver. I think the only real argument would be if the domestic market changes tastes to match that of another market an automaker from that market could easily fill the void until the domestic makes a car to more closely match the changed tastes.
That and this:

This seems like an announcement of sorts, so I'm copying it from the thread it was originally posted to this one as well. Monkey-fune HOWEVER, this is to all GD members. I have been told by Sixspeed to let Ivan "diss/punk" whoever he wants, and I don't have any responsibility to edit his inflammatory posts. I, however, won't take it from him. If I'm attacked or abused, I'll take it up with the administration of this forum, and if I'm not happy with the results, I'll take my leave with no hard feelings. I suggest all other members do this if they feel that they're being personally abused. Take it up with management, if you don't like how the resolve it, bounce. As I know many people will say, this is a Gaia forum, it's nothing serious. Well, yeah, it's nothing to get butt-hurt over, but over my time here, I've seen Frivolouz/Sixspeed continue to try to grow it into a safe-haven for the few real and mature automotive enthusiasts that just happen to be on Gaia. If that is no longer the goal, why not just hang out and flame away in the Scion board?
