You high on something, dawg? The LFA engine is more compact than a Lexus V8 and lighter than a V6. Also, the LFA being classified as front midship has nothing to do with the ability to use the engine...

I've only had my S2000 for a year so it didn't take me ten years. What it took was seeing the interior of the FRS. In comparison, the FRS made the S2000 feel as if it came off the Acura production...

Are the dash and door panels made of better material in the BRZ compared to the FRS? I mean, I knew that some compromises were made with this car, but the interior felt like it came out of a $13k...

Went to the dealership today to check out the FRS. I loved many things about this car with the fact that it is new being the most tempting factor. However, I ultimately walked away because I couldn't...

True. However, I do believe that the stock S2000 is a bit tricky to drive at the limits, the AP1 being more twitchy. While I don't fully understand the physics behind the suspension and chassis that...

I don't think the issue with the S2K is the lack of traction. I shit you not, the car doesn't have the torque to break the tires loose on demand. The S2K is trickier to push because it's twitchy at...

What the fuq are you two doing drag racing two slow cars intended for fun in the twisties? LOL

Also, that was a lame Hyundai comment. FYI, the Genesis will smoke you in YOUR game, the 1/4 mile.

Not at all, especially not the S2K. As others have mentioned, you can find a nice, barely "broken in" AP1 for $10-15K. A superior car for less money. Win-win, unless you need back seats and want a...
