so, you just said that America doesnt make a sports car...lol, but i understood.... i dont think the si will take your gt in top end either, but i dont really know what kind of top speeds the GT can pull...also are the gt's 5 speed this year, or still auto with 5 speed opt?
to show that I like nice sport cars, they don’t have to be American.
The gt's come w/ 5-spd M or a 5spd auto for another grand. Dont get me going why its not a 6spd; but whatever.

but the way you stated it made it sound like you were saying that America doesnt make sports cars....lol, i knew what you ment though so its all good. but are most people getting the 5sp? past gt's i have seen were mostly autos, wich i thought was pretty gay..but a 6 speed would make it a bit more sporty, and prolly save a little at the pump too.

A wrx would still probably take you in a straight line, along with the stock turbocharged version of the 350Z. If it were an sti, my bet is you wouldn't take it in a straight line, and you would get eaten alive in the curves.

I know a STI a "bit" faster cuz of its awd w/ 13.3 @ 100.1 in the 1/4 and a 0-60 in 4.7 sec vs. my cars 1/4-mile:13.7 sec @ 103 mph/0-60 in 5.0 flat(this is a vert they test, which weights more then a coupe), as you can see my car trapt a higher speed meaning I would beat a STI on a high end "roll' race.

and the reg wrx is a joke next to my car w/ a 0-60 in 6.3 sec and 1/4 mile in 14.9
My car very hard to beat in a drag race for the money (starting at 26G’s), and yes I know, not everyone cares about straight line perf but the stang is built for one thing and that’s drag racing and its very good at it.
