It does suck in the US.. we get the crap of the crap from most car makers. I am thinking about making a rogue nation in the US that is based solely on driving cool cars, which means BMW, Merc, Acura, Ferrari, Lotus, Aston Martin, will all have to import cars to my nation. And in my nation, we will have absolutely no emission standards or noise pollution standards, so there goes the whole HP-stealing-exhaust problem..... so maybe i won't start my rogue nation, but it would be a badass nation if i did
1999 MTM Audi S4
2001 VW Passat
2000 Yukon Denali
1964 E-type Jag Roadster
1967 E-type Jag Coupe
That's right, MTM Audi S4, 400 hp at the quattro wheels... oohhhh baby.
European cars rule all. Denali and Escalade used to rule the trucks, but Cayenne, Tourag, and Pikes Peak have won that right too.
I understand why the German's are trying to unload Chrysler.

Well, the 3000GT VR-4's are fast (Not the most agile cars but fast). And the reason i don't like Mitsubishi's all that much is drivetrain longevity. I have yet to see a higher mileage (100,000+ mi) Pre-2000 Mitsu without some serious engine problems or a rebuild. Most people buy a car with the hopes that it will last up to and beyond 200k mi, good luck if you buy a Mitsu.
And as for toyotas not being good sports cars. Stock...they could be better, especially if japan would have given us the 1995+ GT-FOUR (225 hp AWD). But they whup some a$$ in almost all racing fields. Who makes one of the best indy engines....Toyota! And then theres the Celicas and Corollas that rule in rally racing, and the Supras that CAN'T BE BEAT in the drags by anything short of a 3-Rotor RX-7! And lets not forget the GT cars. And then theres the trucks....mitsu used to make trucks...ugly...ugly slow...ugly trucks. Honda can't make trucks...and toyotas trucks have won the Baja races for many many years.
So, find me a Mitsu that WASN'T driven by grandpa with over 160,000 miles on the original engine. And i'll find a half dozen toyotas with over 200k for every one mitsu u find  Oh wait, i've already found 2! And i did kind of like the 93-95 civic hatchbacks....then i realized that 75% of the population owned them and my sense of originality would have flown out the window had i purchased one.

age drifter, only a dipshit would base on mitsubishi... mitsubishi makes fun cars. the 3000 gt was by far the most fun car to drive for the money... BY FAR~! my brother owns a mitsubishi elcips turbo all wheel drive, its a 1999 with a few basic tunes such as cold air intake, a blow out valve, 2.5 inch exhaust and DC headers he smokes camaros, firebirds, WRX's.... and as far as your toyota goes i laugh at you my friend, i give props to the #$%#in supra that car was sick... but lets see now the fastest toyota is the v-6 camry AHhahahAhAAHah oh let me remind you its 0-60 is 7.1 seconds... the celica is a #$%#in joke 0-60 7.87 seconds for the gt-s.... so basically what im saying is take your 1935 toyota corolla and shove it up your ass

izemyunche - posted on your signature is Mitsubishi good....? Well, lets start with that (yes i know this is a thread about the rsx, oh well) You do know that mitsu is owned by dodge, right and you do know that dodge is the mother of all P.O.S. cars right like, oh i dont know, the plymouth laser, aka eclipse (known for their 100,000 mile engines :P . "BUT THE 3000GT ROCKS"....you mean the dodge stealth? But according to you its better than toyota....Would that be my 86' corolla gts with 112hp stock (in 86' mind u) thats pushing...i think 217,000 miles, with the Original engine, tranny, 2nd clutch, etc., and it still spanks late 80's/early 90's civics. Or maybe when you say toyotas are BAD your refering to my 87 toyota 4X4 pick-up? The engine was just rebuilt at 202,000 miles, and that was pretty much just to regain lost power from gradual compression loss and mpg deterioration. And saying that ford is better too....if i tried to think of a response to that, i'd probably shit myself upon dying from uncontrollable laughter. Oh well, i'll throw one in. Your probably talking about mustangs, but since they're faster than my car, when they're running, i'll compare the ford 4x4s to my pick-up. The rangers suck, point blank, on and off road. Not to mention they're for girls. So, would your GOOD ford be a 4X4 F-250 (which makes up for its unreliability with higher hp) which can barely get into the trails i tear up in my toyota, and runs out of fuel halfway there anyways because its an in-efficient v-8. I'm done, and i don't like you.

Quote from Ferrari 288 GTO turbo
Here in New Zealand they're called Honda integra type r's (and my mates dads one is a 02' model - just the same power and shit as this one) its quite fast for a 16 -year old kiwi boy, real close ratio gears too, you can chug round Christchurch in fifth gear! (the speed limits 50k's)
He is currently planning a 3-inch exhust, but i dont know what will happen.Any way, these cars a phat.
no the Integra Type R is actually the RSX-R.....the RSX-S is a different spec car....not as good as the RSX-R in terms of handling and stuff....the RSX-R also has a motor rated at 220hp i believe as compared to the 200hp of the RSX-S...still the RSX-S is a nice car.
RSX
RSX-S
RSX-R that's the order of goodness

Haha some Americans are quite the idiots. However, although I do beleive the guy who said 50k meant 50,000 mph is American, I'm not sure, and he usually doesnt make such err's. On the other hand, he may have been making a really dumb joke, and everybody just didn't get it. Either way, some Americans are quite the idiots!

When he says that this car rocks, he is referring to being fast, reliable, efficieant, and pleasing to the eye Not 'eh, kinda quick', unreliable, terribly inefficient in comparison, and 'god what were they thinking (Avalanche) ugly' like GM cars

wakkawu, 50k's is 50 kilometres per hour, not 50,000 mph. Have you ever heard of a 10K run, its 10 kilometres, not 10,000 miles. 50k's is somewhere between 30 and 35 mph. Any honda can do 35.
