driving under its own power or otherwise? lol j/k

I saw one in something like a mineral gray color and I thought it looked terrible. The side profile, spare the roof design, is about as boring as it could get.:drama:

Trust me, ANYTHING in a Cobra will outlast anything in the piece of shit GTR. Regardless of what is faster, you will certainly get more than 15 launches out of your drivetrain, and you won’t get screwed when you turn the TCS off.

The cobra has had more than 15 launches, and I have traction control turned off permanently in my tune… and I’m faster 🙂

My brother broke a rear end in his camaro the first week he had it back in the day, does that mean all camaro’s are junk?

My uncle had a dodge ram the first year of the new redesign, I think it was a 1994 but :dunno: and it would crack windshields when he would hit a bump because the window hole was cut too small. Does that mean all dodge ram’s are junk?

Good point. Just seems like for it being a performance oriented car there are alot of restrictions on driving it how it should be driven:bigthumb:

no, but it is known that the rear end in those cars is garbage and that is one more example

If I recall didn’t Dodge have trucks come out and the frame would crack?

I wouldn’t put anything past a Dodge product. 🙂

Every car maker had issues, people just want to bash things they don’t like or cannot afford. I like the looks of the GTR and like how it performs. once they get the bugs, it will be a badass car, IMO.

I can’t wait to hear about the first time a new ZR1 breaks something. 😃
