Mopar vs Rice

Great thread! Finally some muscle car guys that understand Turbo Imports.

I totally agree, there is a difference between really FAST and thinking a turd is really fast.

Muscle Car's are great, especially for their designed purpose.

Its very hard to compete on all fronts with a Muscle Car though. They are known to NOT handle very good, not stop very good, don't get great gas mileage and ECT.

That is what I enjoyed about my Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX.
I could not find anything it did not DO VERY WELL.

It averaged 15-30 mpg depending on where I was driving it (city/highway).
It had very good brakes....STOCK
It handled like a F16 fighter jet.....after a few tweaks of course!
It accelerated like a Hemi Road Runner..after a few simple bolt ons of course!
It was slicker than a C5 Corvette....(drag c/o of .29) STOCK.
And IMHO it had the sexiest body shape of ANY automobile ever engineered....much like a 1968 Charger.

My younger brother recently imported his 1991 Nissan Skyline RB25DeTT here to the USA....I GET TO DRIVE IT SOON!!!

I am just a automobile enthusiast with a good understanding of Internal Combustion Engines and Boost Application.

I have some stories, but I remember them as V8 Kills.
