Then again, the fact the altima hooks better and beats it in the 1/4 by .3 seconds is irrelevant.

The reason I like nissan.... which of the two still produces some solid RWD cars? (hint, not honda or acura)
solid is a stretch but yeah, thus my current car

I was being a mag racer, I watched it at the track track last year.

Toyota and Honda, both shooting themselves in the feet with the demise of their fast RWD fun to drive cars.

wow so you are basing your .3 of a second on a couple of random drivers you happened to see and you think that is better then mag racing?

also how does rwd figure into the debate between the two fwd coupes?

Indeed I am, also driving both and falling asleep at the wheel of the accord when at least the altima was..... kinda fun.

And it doesn't, it justifies being a fanboy for a company that still makes real wheel drive cars. Unlike yourself, who I am lead to believe is a fan of torque steer?

yes, that must be why i traded my fwd car in for a rwd car

we are talking about a car for this dude's gf, she probably doesn't even know what torque steer is, she will probably get a rwd car and be like wow this is bad in the snow and why does the gas pedal vibrate like its part of a tractor

oh look the award winning engine strikes again

That's not bad, i thought since the Z was a two seater it would be a lot higher

So did I, so I was pretty shocked when Allstate quoted me such a low number. I was actually with Liberty Mutual at the time but switched to Allstate when I bought the G. Call around to diff insurance companies and get quotes on a 370.

exactly, at 130k miles.

Honda's sucks, they are purely an econobox that silly ricers love to rice up. I'd rather blow an engine from a TB than drive a lifeless honda, they're like ****ing a corpse.
