little bored so I thought I'd see how the other side lives
not much different though but amusinghttp://g35driver.com/forums/showflat...sed&sb=5&part=

 

Car and driver:

2003+ accord coupe V6 6spd

0to60: 5.9sec
1/4mile: 14.5 @98mph

yep, thats fast grocery getting! can't come after that with an auto G coupe.

 

lol. they are so cocky about their Gs

 

ibwecompareinteriorsandbashfwd

 

hahaha its a 7page thread now lol


btw, theres always a chance that someone will come upon a driver that can drive and one that cant in a race

 

um the dumbass was in an auto and left VDC on. he was beaten before the race began.

 

lol

 

"that's v-tec baby"

 

I'd still buy one.

 

G35 front
G35 Rear

G35 looks purty nice!

 

Philosophical question here...

They say that CL-S and AV6's are grocery getters...because we go grocery shopping in them or whatever. But, if they go to the grocery store in their G35's, doesn't that make their cars grocery getters too Around here, G35's are pooping up all over the place...occassionally I do see them in the supermarket parking lot...hahahaha

 

 

How about this one:

Your 20" wheels probably didn't help you out either. They look nice but thats a lot of rotational mass to get going. BTW, hows that exhaust working out for you?

20's aren't going to make a damn difference. It was simply the VDC.

I was neck to neck with a 350Z and have 20's on my sedan - until I hit the nitrous and it was all over for him.

ricer excuses, my friend. The accord had a passenger, while your G had an exhaust

 

I so don't want to even get started in this thread, so I'll refrain...

Stuff happens... Accord won. Big freakin' deal. If you even think the Accord has 1/10 the class, style, chick appeal, power, fit n' finish...

I'll stop there.

 

no need to back off, we can have a friendly discussion scrib. Remember, I am not anti G, I even defend it on this board, but when it comes to the accord, I have to defend the accord, because I cross shopped both cars and choose the accord.

don't act like the accord win is a surprise! auto G35C vs 6spd accord= a loss for the G period! high 14's vs mid 14's. And how does the G35C out class the accord? with its pop-up 7th grader navi? the thing isn't even voice activated. and as for fit and finish, let me say that I'll gladly sit in the lavish interior of my 'ccord anyday than bang my head against hard plastic.

 

"Why race a Honda to begin with? You have absolutely nothing to gain. If you win it's because you're supposed to win; if you lose, well, you're embarrassed..."

Man give me a break. Hey Scrib you like to throw this around , so will I

There's a TON of people over there that need to come down off their high horse. They really do believe they’re rolling in God’s chariot.



The G is a great car but so is the Accord coupe.

 

another magazine racer

 

my fav quote, those cocky bastarrds. hehe

 

W O R D!

I mean the way cars are these days, if you buy a bimmer for instance, and don't have an M badge behind you, don't even try to race pimple face, on a date with his neon.

 

how about motortrend?

0-60: 5.9
1/4mile: 14.5

if you still have doubts, stop on by our forum---> v6performance.net, and there'll be plenty of timeslips for you to look at. BTW, my "A U T O" runs 14.7 @ 97mph with just cai. ask johntypes, on this board.

 

Don't know why people are sooo obsessed with 0-60 races or 1/4 races. If they had a canyon to carve, the G would would win regardless of auto or manual. That's why you pay the $8000 premium !!!

 

and how many people autocross their cars? thats the kind of crap they spit at you on is300.net, yet the auto cross section of their forum, has like 2 posts.

 

The G stops better, handles better, accelerates faster (auto v. auto; manual v. manual).

I also drive an 03 Accord in addition to my Z. I got the 4-cylinder because I wasn't going to try and pretend the car is a performance car. It's a great car, but it's purpose is quiet, comfortable and bargain cruising. Get a weekend racer if you are obsessed with racing

 

auctually the section that deals with autocrossing has 551 threads & 4,125 posts.

 

I autocross my Z... It's a lot of fun and a great experience. I find it much more fulfilling than the 1/4 mile track. Why? Because it requires a significant amount of skill.

The first time I went, I got beaten by a 4-cylinder Jetta. Not even the 1.8T. Why? Because skill matters a lot.

My Z is significantly more pleasing to drive than my Accord. The Accord is much more comfortable, but it's a car you forget all senses driving in. It's an appliance. The Z/G35c is a car to be driven.

 

I had a whole response written... And then I decided. It's not even worth getting into.

The Accord won.

Keep your calendar free in late Spring. We'll drive up to the BMW driving school at Gingerman. We'll see how your lavish car does there, mkay.

P.S. --> If you even think your car is in the same league as mine, you're on crack.

 

wasnt this why torque got BANNED in the first place?

 

how come this quiet comfortable cruiser has 260HP stock? thats 217whp, and there for 9 less whp than a stick G. dude face it, you got the auto 4 banger, and I cannot begin to explain to your just how much more manlier of a car the V6 6spd is.

 

ASSHAT, did I start this post?

 

err......try no, because you are embarrased to show up with a sports car running slower than the previous generation.

 

No, but you did start one earlier that mysteriously disappeared...

 

dude your a grown man in a nissan, bro, not better than me!

 

yeah, I deleted it because I didn't want any torquie nonsense.

 

The Accord does not have 260hp.. It had 240 like it's advertised. Maybe slightly more, but it's not 260 like you claim. I can pull out stock Z dyno's that show the car have 255hp stock... those aren't the norm, just like the dyno you are showing.

The only difference between my Accord and yours is an engine. That's it. The suspension, brakes, etc... are all the same. An engine alone does not make a truly satisfying driving experience.

BTW, most stock 6-speed G35c's are in the 235-240hp range. Finally, the one thing the Accord lacks compared to the G is.... Remember your old screen name? Well, that's something your car definitely lacks

 

Oh yeah.. That's the reason

 

just make sure you've learn't to drive a stick shift by then big talker, don't get O W N 3 d, like the guy who's post we are bickering about.

 

It's an Infiniti not a Nissan. I guess you say all Lexus drivers drive Toyota's? Or all of the Acura drivers here drive Honda's?

 

Torquie... WTF are you talking about??? Here's a 6mt SEDAN dyno.



Stop spewing bullcrap, please.

 

No problem.
