GT-S vs 3000 GT VR4

I saw this white 3000 GT on teh frwy this morning driving pretty fast so I caught up to him to see if he'd race.


slowed to 90mph I was in 4th. after pacing each other for a sec we take off. All I can say is it wasnt pretty. By 125 on my speedo he was a good 10 cars up. that dude was hella fast. I already knew I'd lose, I just didnt expect it to be that bad. lol

He had black rims, exhaust and god knows what else. that woulda made a funny video.

twin turbo, electronically controlled dampening, and the list goes on...don't want to mess with them! they are fast as ****. a shop owner I know who works on mitsus and owns a 3000gt vr-4 says those things were desiged by a space engineering team.

Civic? Super Car?? Have you been reading too much Super Street? Back in the day, one can argue it would be GTO, RX-7, Supra, Skyline GT-R, FairladyZ, Evo RS, WRX Sti......

The only things left, from the 280PS series, FairladyZ, Evo RS, WRX Sti. (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Yes they are, but it's still all Honda thinking and design. It's a tough call though, some ppl may say that if a car is built somewhere, then it's from particular.... my mom's Odyssey was built in Canada, but I wouldnt consider it Canadian heehee . I guess it's how you want to look at it. Oh yeah, Honda and Toyota are the only 2 companies from Japan that are still pretty much 100% owned by themselves.

Most of the parts are made in japan, but they are assembled in the us. 3000gt's are hela fast. Even more when modded right, with the right driver.
