The base motor in a Mazda, Honda or Toyota is a 4 banger. If you compare base models to base models and high end models to high end models none of these cars can compete. I can't imagine any of those 4 bangers can even get close to a G8 V6. If you want a quick Honda or Mazda you can't get the 4 banger but if you get the base model G8 you have a quick car and a car that can do 138 MPH. Not to mention its RWD and a very good handling car. The people are not comparing these cars appropriately.
See now this comment just makes too much sense

that has to be the most retarded thing I have ever read! I dont see what base model has anything to do with it?? How about compair price tags or cylinders?? Seriously lg68jcu you need help!

I can see it now (after you loose the race) "hey I only have a base model G8 you have a loaded Accord with a smaller displacment motor thats gets better gas mileage, thats not a fair race! I know they cost the same and they have the same size engines but its not fair"

Will this thread ever die? Some pretty funny stuff when you go back and read it from the beginning.But it's just not the same without the DR.

r33pwrd,
How about YOU bring your stcok GT out here and I'll go get a stock V6 Buick GNX and blow your doors off? Or are YOU afraid to run your mighty V8 against a V6.

first off I would race a GNX any day! If I loose im ok with that! I never said a V6 cant beat a V8! I have a 4cyl in the garage that can hang with just about any V8 car that is streat legal! My point is some of the V6 owners talk **** that they can kill an accord V6 and wont step up to the plate and race one!

I never claimed to have a might V8 but if I was talking **** that I could kill every v6 out there and than would not race them I would be as ignorant as....

ow and I would think a stock G8 GT and a GNX (Stock) would be a great race!

No one gives a **** if you think your wifes Honda is faster than a G8. The dude doesn't want to come out and race you, not because he thinks he'll lose, but because he doesn't give two ****s about you.

Go suck some big hairy donkey balls and GTFO the v6 forum if you have nothing to say.
