Okay, Is it just me or is everyone else tired of people jacking-off over cars like those listed in the post title? Don't get me wrong. These cars bring some awesome numbers to the table, but I constantly see poeple touching themselves over these cars like they're the best thing since the wheel was invented. You fucking douchebags! I don't give a damn how great you think the GT-R is. Without the AWD, that car ain't shit. And there you have it, the real reason behind their "awesomeness"! None of these cars is anything to write home about with the AWD factor. They'd be just another factory hot rod.
What got me going on this is on a "cars" forum board at crunchyroll.com, a member asked what other's favorite car is, the thread poster said she liked Mustangs. One wanker replied, "The Skyline, Blah, blah, blah, blah, will take any Mustang. You know what dumbass? What if the Mustang came with AWD? Would your precious Skyline be really that bad? I think not.
The vehicle that drives my point home is the GMC Syclone. A pick-up with a turbo'd, aftercooled 4.3 V6 mated to an AWD transfer case using standard S-truck 4WD drivetrain. This 'lil monster ground out 280hp & 350 ft.lbs. turning 1/4 mi times of 13.4 sec. A pick-up! Without the AWD, this truck wouldn't of been anything. Could you imagine trying to launch a short-box mini-truck making 350 ft.lbs. of torque! Good luck on that one!
Granted, most, no that's wrong, all of the morons who blindly think these cars are the cats ass are really car posers. By that, I mean they are the kind of person who reads Motor Trend and/or Car & Driver magazines and that is the extent of their knowledge. Not book smart, but magazine dumb. They read these magazines and think they know everything there is to know and they treat it like gospel all meanwhile driving 90 hp Civic. Yeah, you're the man, you Fast n Furious reject......
