I dont want to call you out, but the brakes were the same on the Trans Am.

Ill tear this thread up.
Working on a car for two years non-stop, and working on a car every now and then for two years is totally different.
Again, stop assuming things.
Assuming because it has an American V8 up front totally destroys the handling condemnes some of you to the ranks of European fanboys...
I see your POV, the only this is you have nothing leading for you to believe that the handling of the car is absolutely destroyed.
Who says the owner didnt reinforce the chassis, and tweak the...
It was a 2nd gen Miata, dont remember the exact year, probably a '99 or '00.
We both fully understood what the car was made for, but to us (and many others) we expect a $20,000 sports car to have atleast decent acceleration.
And ofcourse we took it around some turns, and its...
In what way? This owner is "ignorant" because he wanted to make a unique modern day hotrod? Dont you think if this swap really did hurt the handling that bad, the owner would know, and obviously not...
touche, just get whatever you like the most (buy an EVO!).
^Thats awesome.
I would suggest joining a 3000GT specific forum, and asking owners there the best way to launch the car.

Back to topic, I vote it to be a...
uhh theres really no comparison in performance, SRT4>Tiburon.
Honestly have you seen a Viper?
Your blowing the interior argument way out of proportion.

Uh, you brought it up...
"and by the way Slicks, this is a Tiger, a highly respected automobile, also by so-called european fanboys...."
What about the concept of lightweight small cars makes the designers "eurofanboys"? It seems like you keep avoiding the question because you dont know wtf your talking about.
Ive never called anyone a eurofanboy for simply saying "I like audi V8s." I TOO like audi V8s.
wow.. I was being sarcastic when I said a car should have the best interior possible.
Ive been using the exige for example because like the Viper, its not made to have a nice, luxurious interior. ...
Never heard of him.
Theres a big difference between being a fanboy and liking something. I really like the LSx engines, and because I defend them doesnt make me a fanboy. Id be a fanboy if I were...
