just stop already.....

Agreed. It's just something about fwd that is fun. I just perfer the feel of being pushed into a corner not dragged.


Doesn't everyone see where this is going. My RWD is better then your FWD. Fwd is sorta like dog dragging it's ass on the floor though.

everybodies definition of fun to drive is differnt.

my definition of fun to drive IS NOT a turbo. I'd rather have throttle response and plenty of torque to make the daily drive nice.

I just think the F-body looks a lot sweeter. I know that they're both fast cars and fun to drive, so I'm just goin on looks.

to both cars though

this shouldn't even be a question.. the F-body is a superior car in every way, shape, and form than a CRX, even if the CRX runs 12s... the F-body (i'm assuming LS1) can do that stock with a pair of slicks that i'm sure that CRX needs to go faster than mid 13s

I think people are losing sight of what the question is here, not which has more potential but in their current state, mikes f-bod or the crx in it's present state. Now if mikes f-bod was modded and running low 11's and maybe 10's I would probably concede and vote for it but thats not the case.

noone ever said my fbody.

I happen to drive an fbody, and he made a comment about "look at what you drive" = fbody.

So IMO that encompasses all fbodies.

Even if it were - 1: I'm not stock, 2: it shouldn't cost much to get me into 12s from this point.

Saving up the rest of my pennies needed for a stroker right now.
