On *what* track?  On any track with turns, the 370Z says bye bye to the G8.  On a 1/4 mile track, they’re actually very closely matched.  They’re both in the 13's, stock for stock.  Which is almost laughably slow on both fronts.  At least I didn’t buy my car with the delusion that it’s fast in a straight line.

Issa joke.  Something tells me people wouldn’t care so much if Jalopnik posted an article with an El Camino photoshopped next to a trailer.  Sheesh.

When you said “G8 GT”, I imagined it parked in a car port next to a trailer home.

Yeah, I figured it was a trade in, being a Buick dealership and all. It’s a shame, I loved the idea of getting into a relatively modern Japanese wagon, something that’s not all that common. But I’m very happy with my 500+hp boring German sedan. It’s just that it will be worth half of what I paid in 4 years LOL

Funny story that’s kind of relevant here. I wanted to buy a used Audi, but my better judgement pushed me to go look at a used Acura wagon instead (at a Buick dealership).

I used to think this.  They’re essentially a Corvette with 200 less horsepower, and a way worse engine.  Virtually no one makes any performance parts for the Northstar V8, so it’s stuck in slowland forever.  Which is a shame, the XLR could have been an awesome car otherwise.

You’re out of your skull.

#ThingsThatDefinitelyHappened

Just throwing a crazy conspiracy theory out there.

And it’s a digital rendering.  Not a photo.  Sheesh.

Meh, they’ve had roughly, I don’t know... 25 years to stabilize their market and for Japanese buyers to purchase the car they want.  Sorry not sorry.

The Corvette has had a 7-speed manual for a long time now. And I’m 100% certain there’s been more before that. wat?

Did you read my entire reply? I understand if you didn’t, it’s a long one. But, I addressed that point.

You didn’t, I was just using the extreme end of the spectrum to illustrate a point.

Okay, so there’s no national database on police shootings. You know what is documented? When the body goes to the morgue and the cause of death is determined. At which point, it will be reported as a death by gunshot wound.

1.) Yes my mistake. But, 0.0048% is not even a rounding error. It’s literally by the book not statistically significant.

There are roughly 16,000 murders by gun in the USA every year. This includes justified killings (self defense, cops shooting criminals, etc.). But, let’s pretend that all of the 16,000 murders are guns being illegally used.

Oh wow

oh god wat is my life

I don’t care what my colleagues say, the VQ V6 sounds cool and burbly.
