I just looked up some specs on the C4 ZR-1… 405hp, 385tq. 0-60mph in 4.5 13.2 @ 107mph 181mph top speed A early 90’s 964 911 Turbo S does similar numbers (with less hp and tq) and looks a ton better with similar prices. ---

As I recall inspections on old cars are absurd in Japan to encourage people to buy new. ---

I read up on it just now, apparently the inspection itself is very cheap, but everyone takes it to mechanics for pre-inspection inspection, where they charge you tons for changing everything whether it works or not. I guess people there don’t bother working on their own cars? ---

Let’s look at two photographs of the interiors in question and make some notes- vs Helen Keller and Ray Charles both agree that every aspect of the Porsche’s interior is superior to the Corvette. ---

And it’s prolly a ton better quality. Travis, more buttons does not equal better interior. ---

The vette dash is kinda cooler looking, it’s more driver oriented. The Porsche dash reminds me of a 60’s car ---
