All you haters need to wake the fuck up. It doesn’t matter if its an import or a camaro or a mustang, if its fast its cool. I dont see my self in a honda any time soon but that doesn’t mean ill pretend my cobra is the greatest car built and say imports are gay. Im sure theres many imports that would hand me my ass. This site is full of dumb asses who think because they have a domestic they are better than every one else, not true!! Try to keep an open mind, you might learn something. I saw a post earlyer about cheating on the polls and right away someone runs their mouth about it being the import guys cheating. Thats just gay stereotyping, we dont need it on here. this is an enthusiast board!! :mad: :mad: ---

yeah i’m just saying that comparing a 400hp rwd car on street tires to a 300hp awd car on better tires, there shoulndt’ be that much of a difference, it’s not like the cobra has pepboys futuras. ---

All magazine articles are bias, believe me. I work with them all the time. You can send them a pile of dog shit and they will tell readers it makes horsepower because the vender spends the money with them. As for the sti article that said it ran better than the cobra in the quarter, it is all in the driver. I ran a 12.70 with an air filter and stock F1 tires, it was 80 degrees. There have been several sti’s at prp and ive yet to see one go any faster than 13.10. Please don’t think im bashing the sti, i like them a lot and it would be my choice of an import if i bought one. ---
