He lists their cars, and leaves out many bad ones.  And while the 9-2x is a perfectly good car, or Subaru, shall we say, the fact that it was a turbo 4 banger doesnt make it a Saab.

Yeah, the article is the better part, the list is just kinda stupid, for lack of a better word.

Was that article from a regular magazine publication, or was it written by some GM fan for a local forum.

Either way it was pretty stupid, and as usual anyone who likes imports is thrown into the retarded riceboy catagory of liking low displacement no torque honda's with neon lights, and no idea what RWD is.

Also his lack of understanding why a turbo IS better than a supercharger is about the only amusing part.

How can anyone really think the G6 GTP and Malibu SS are as good as the Mazdaspeed 6, Legacy GT, and Altima SE-R?

Has the G6 GTP even been unveiled yet?  :blink:

I don't believe so, but they are going to have to make some major changes to the regular G6 for it to come even close.

The engine is going to be a LOT better though.

Just an enlarged version of the 3.5l, how much better can it be? Sure it will have more power but it won't be any smoother.
