The GTO is a heavier car, so for you to analyze that the GTO has a worse suspension than a 350z is preposterous. Your comparing a car with 200hp to a car with 400. So you criticize a car you know nothing about and can't drive worth a sh*t b/c you cant handle a car with power. Dont worry, there are MANY people like this....they bought 350z's.

WTF are you people talking about me for? all i was saying was that the Z & more importantly the s2000 are better handling cars, and that the gto is a straitline car. just a comparison. geez. you guys need a chill pill.
First off, wrong section jackass. Second off, who are you trying to convince that a GTO is actually a cool car? Us or yourself. I dont care if it has 400, 500, or even 600hp, its still ugly and reminds me of a fvcking oldsmobile or something. The interior is cheap and plasticy. Almost as cheesy as the 4th gen F-bodies... Yes it is a fast car, yes it handles decent, but it's the kind of car that every 45 year old trailer park living, keystone drinking, wife beatin' redneck dreams about. I am a big pontiac fan, and I like the 60's and early 70's GTO's, and have owned a few 60's and early 70's pontiac muscle cars, but I just couldn't see myself owning a new GTO unless they did a complete facelift. Pontiac took the easy route and just rebadged a car that another GM brand was already producing. They should have taken the time to design a car that had its roots in what the original GTO stood for. The RAM AIR IV GTO's were badass. However, they were two door cars, not four door. It was a purpose built straight line race car, not a heavy sedan. If pontiac wanted to attract more diehard classic GTO fans, they could do something like the new mustang, new charger, or the new camaro. I would rather see a retro style GTO than that ugly damn camaro Chevy's been promising for 5 years now. I'm not the biggest fan of the retro style cars, but the GTO would be a good candidate considering it was one of the most powerful muscle cars of its time.

Why do you care how your car MAGAZINE HANDLES???? Don't you run around with DR's on your car and "I have no traction on street tires..." and
All this, "I beat Collins in a street race in some back alley somewhere, so now I'm a mack daddy driver...." is. You beat him. Good for you. I'm actually surprised you even showed up, so good for you. You're still being cocky as h3ll for doing basically nothing.
Cool buddy.....congrats on passing the 2ND GRADE.....Big whoop!
where is your stig?
He is busy outrunning the 350z by a huge margin over at the top gear racetrack.
GTO's are LAME!!!!!!

what do you drive again? a ****in eclipse-non tubo. GTFO!!!!!
You have a really difficult time with this whole idea of balance, don't you? The GTO (Actually, not the GTO either, since the Monaro is indeed mechanically different, starting with the fact that it's not restricted by american safety standards or emissions standards) is an incredibly well designed car for what it is. The Australians built it as an all-purpose runner. The new Pontiac G8 and specifically the G8 GT are excellent examples of this as well, as is the Ford Falcon. It will handle well, go fast, stop quick, and look intensely generic while doing so.
The Monaro can go around the TGTT fast? I bet I can explain why. The TGTT is filled with short barrel-run straights that allow a car with a lot of oomph to jump up in speed quickly, the faster that you can go through the straight, the more seconds you will take off your time. As long as the car is reasonably equipped and can bring itself back down to it's cornering speed quickly, you can make the turns easily and be right back on the throttle. Does this mean that the Monaro can make the turn faster than an S2k? No. Does this mean, overall, that the Monaro can sweep an S2k by 7 seconds on the track? Yes. If you knew half a cent about actual racing, and not just street-drag racing from light to light, you'd have a better idea of why the GTO is rated so much faster. It's simply a faster car. This is akin to comparing a Corvette with a V6 Mustang. Both might be base models, but they aren't going to compete the same, period.
Anyways, calling any of the new GM performance cars domestic (Besides the Corvette) is absolute idiocy. The Monaro/GTO and the G8 GT both came from Aussieland. The two new Saturns, the Astra and the Sky, both came from european and japanese ideas, as did the Solstice. The Turbo-Ecotec motor powering the high-end Solstice/Sky was Euro designed ages and ages ago and has been around forever. Hyundai is more a domestic brand than GM's current marques are. Our ideas of import and domestic obviously need to be readjusted a bit, thanks to Globalization. Hell, who would think that GM would be the company leading the way in turbo-four cylinder two-door sports coupes with the Solstice and the Sky? Now we're looking at having the Genesis Coupe, the possibility of a new Nissan successor to the Silvia/S-body series, the Toyobaru, a re-thinking of the Miata line, and maybe even Ford and Chrysler will get on the band wagon.
Most intelligent post I've seen in a while
I thought they were the exact same. If so, why the differences? You contradicted yourself. Next time you want to make a point, base it on some actual information.

sean.......just stfu lol. It's just a Z some like it some don't just like any other car.
Dont get me wrong. Personally, I like the Z/G. But I mean...stop acting like its a Ferrari.

The Carbon Fibered R6
whos acting like it's a ferrari? except for maybe sean lol. hes prob just really really proud of his car. but pride gets the best of us sometimes i guess.
I personally got it bc i love nissan/the history from the fairlady.
Not you, ya c0ck sukin motha fuka. lol Just messin with u man. My statement wasnt directed at you. I think the car is nice just...I like a back seat.
-Ant.

I think you're also forgetting the massive horsepower difference that gives the GTO some edge on the straights
you are stupid to think those are good names to make fun of the 350z and the s2000.
they look or sound nothing like them.
bad
OHHH so THAT was nissan seans car at the varsity.. gotcha.
I agree, people do like to hate the Z for no reason. But in eclipse dudes defense..see here is where your wrong and dumb. I DO NOT BELIEVE MY CAR IS THE GREATEST SPORTS CAR EVER!!!!! i may act like it, but thats b/c i love it soo much, and people on the site love to hate on it. for the money-brand new- the 350Z is a great all around sports car. as far as "sh!t for brains" goes, lets do the math:

have a nice day
1. He has an eclipse.. whats the point of buying wheels for it..? It's not like he needs big rims for a nice offset to handle all that front wheel drive horsepower... Am i right? If i were him i'd have painted my stock rims too. Look at me, i got stock painted rims, and they handl my 400AWHP just fine.. gonna make fun of my stock painted rims too? I blow the doors off an F430, but i guess since i got stock painted rims my ****s riccccce.
2. Cool, you got a nicer car than an eclipse, not everyones as fortunate to land a good job, he's doing his best, don't be a douche bag, he didnt bring your personal **** into it.
3. It's people like you that give Z owners a bad name. I mean kayfuNk was just joking when he was ****ing with people, but at least he wasn't a douche bag. People love to hate the Z more than normal because most of their owners are douche bags.. :cough:
I'm sure you're probably a nice guy in person.. but stop boasting on the forums about your great job which probably only pays you $50k a year and how awesome your stock Z is.
p.s. My **** is bigger. +95 points.
me-95 you-0
How bout if you don't have a good paying job you either don't live outside your means and invest a ton of money in your car which you will see no financial return on... OR... save your money and buy the nicer stuff later on when you can afford it instead of rushing it and making it look crappy.
I mean just some food for thought, i know it may be hard to comprehend.
