Ford did it for 1-2 years as well.

Yeah, 2000 ZX2 S/R had a 0-60 of 7.4, which is what the 2025 Si does, and the Escort had no LSD and just a 5spd. It makes me laugh when I hear the Corola, Impreza and Civic have 145-150HP from a 2.0L when in 2000 you would get an Escort with a 143-146(state depending) 2.0. It feels like in ~25yrs we’ve barely gained…

I remember when WingsWest was a huge name in kits. They did some great ones that were just simple lipkits that looks great IMO on the Escort ZX2 and Saturn SC

I’d prefer they don’t pull as I personally like their designs. I just wish the quality and performance would improve. 

I think they look better than Subaru or Toyota. Their interior designs IMO are better than Subaru or VW. I find them more comfortable to sit in for long rides than Mazda. With the Altima having AWD I’ve…

And I see it as a product of what he left them. He may have cut costs, but also at the price of crappy CVT’s and build quality which the new management has to dig them out of, but has almost 0 money to do so because everything he left is like 20yrs old and needs to be replaced. He cut spend but did 0 to increase…

I think a large part of it is that they also dont have the money. They laso had to do a meaningful refresh to almost the whole lineup. I see the current death of the GTR as a side effect of that.

People act like hes some great saving grace for Nissan but I see him as the guy that fucked them.

50k Anything sounds like a bad idea to me.

To be honest I think the old one looks MUCH better than the new. 

I’m sure this will turn into a Nissan bashing thread as most do, but honestly Nissan has had massively better quality and spent less time in the shop than any US brand I’ve owned. They may not be the best to come out of Japan, but in my personal experinces they are easily a level or 2 above Ford, Dodge and GM products.

I learned it in the 90's in school.

I’m comparing this, the Type-S and Golf R as a replacement for my Mustang Bullitt.

We got the GT-FOUR, and the final version had a GREAT engine in it. If I remember a version of that went into the Matrix and Corola XRS. Both also VERY fun cars that are vastly underappreciated and mostly forgotten.

“yeah but it's not a v8!" Probably.

I just think the GTD looks like shit over all. Not sure why anyone would wanna copy it.

For me Shell and Sunoco both are more than BP

I dont usually care who the actors names are. Unless its Tom Cruise. I hate Tom Cruise.

Gonna be honest I’ve seen all those movies but I don’t recognize the name Lauren Bacall at all. Having googled her I DO recognize her face though.

Only car I’m surprised to see on this list is the Integra. I thought EVERYONE knew it was a CVT.

Lightning and Rivians are really the only EV truck/SUV’s that I’ve seen that appeal to me. Just that EV’s don’t really fit my lifestyle needs right now.
