For the cost of the mclarenf1 or the Laimbo,they should move fast I mean come on 200k to 1mil get real for that price it shouldnt matter what kinda tunning muscle cars do they should win but they dont so give it up muslce cars are best.Look at challenger vs lambo or lambo vs 68 charger!

1. The "GTO" isn't "American". Yes, it uses an American engine, but everything else is Australian. 2. The GTO will beat the STI in the 1/4 but will get hammered in thw twisties. I know, i own one and it doesn't compare to a light AWD car in the corners. 3. Americans CAN build good cars. 99% time, they don't, but they have exceptions, such as the new Corvette coming out soon. Supercharged V8, 640HP and currently holds the title of FASTEST car in the world around the N

If that guy could only do a 14 quarter mile with that GTO, HE CANNOT DRIVE. Should have been in the 12.9s
americans do build ... ( 6 days ago by markoslr)
americans do build really powerful engines, but they are shit, because if you compare a american v8 with a european v8, the european is going to beat its ass like nothing, like ur saying that an sti or evo will beat an american v8 is in snowstorm, so that shows how bad the american engines are, they have to make a 8 cylinder car to beat a 4 cylinder car.

im trying to understand why they referred to the STi as "Godzilla". the true "Godzilla" among japanese cars is simply the Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R. it was giving the nickname years ago when it was first released and its the only Skyline to recieve that name and stick to it
OK folks. We are ... ( 4 days ago by tcp2150)
OK folks. We are comparing an American Musclecar to a Japanese technomobile. American Musclecars go like hell in a straight line. They aren't engineered to hit turns like the Euro's or Japs. It's all about what YOU (wherever or whoever you are) want to do. Go fast in a line or zip around turns. These are two very different machines.
Modern Day Muscle ... ( 3 days ago by pwkid)
Modern Day Muscle Car suspensions are very good compared to back then. I think the misconception of horrible handling should just be applied to the 60's and 70's muscle cars. Or atleast thats just my $0.02 ^_^
SO TRUE! Its ... ( 3 days ago by pwkid)
SO TRUE! Its actually a Monaro (or something like that) that is rebadged. We need a real GTO.

an austrialian magazine, Wheels, in 1989, dubbed the car "Godzilla" when it was released...
it just shows the depths to which the Television station researched when they did this segment...

tcp2150 I have to disagree. That is not the case for all American Musclecars. Road and Track paired up the Corvette Z06 against the Acura NSX, and the Z06 outperformed the NSX in every respect. I think you have to look a car individually rather than stereotype it and assume it can't do something other than go in a straight line.

These people are right, These are two very different machines. Depending on either what you like best or what is best for you in handling and power is the answer to which car is probably better. (and that GTO should have been much quicker in the quarter mile)
Makroslr the ... ( 1 day ago by wasp010)
Makroslr the difference between American and European V8's is that American V8's don't need a $4000 oil change every 8 weeks. Also you're comparing an STi and an Evo to just a V8? I'm flattered. Normally you'd compare a whole car with an American V8 in it, but I guess we're just that good huh? Grow up and lose the stereotype. Your whole post is null and void. America was building 800+ hp engines for factory cars in the 60's. What did Europe or Japan have back then?
Yes your right, It ... ( 1 day ago by fullsikk)
Yes your right, It is actually a Holden Monaro rebadged as a GTO for sale in the US. The car is built in Australia.

i agree with Kawasaki1352, the GTO should have been faster in the quater mile but when u have 400 hp in a car that little you could burn out for a quater mile
