I agree w/ Eurofan on so many fronts on this. Now, I'm not saying every Mercedes/BMW/Audi/etc.. is unbelievably cool/fast/whatever, but (generally speaking) they do have an advantage over many of the japanese cars that were talked about in that they are not wrong wheel drive (aka FWD), but are instead RWD/AWD a lot of the time.Yes, the S2K, Miata, WRX/STi, Evo, Genesis, etc... are great cars and probably even better around the track than similarly priced German cars, but you can't really argue that even a base 3 series won't outperform a base Civic/Accord/Camry and probably even IS300 (which is the closest of the group to being in the same category as a 3 series). But we are comparing to apples to sasquatches at that point as they really aren't on the same playing field....in fact Japan (for the most part) doesn't really even have a luxury sport car to compete with the M3 that I can think of (and I'm sure I probably forgot some which will be pointed out to me).
I think that is what Eurofan and thrash were talking about.
Thank you.
I am not trying to be a "Tooshed" "Eurodouche"But honestly admit it... They are faster cars from the factory.
+1 on the comparing apples and oranges. So true

There is no denying that. But like I said before... For every ZR1, GTR, and CTS-V there are 15 german cars that can do it just as good...Can you name these 15 german cars?

I agree w/ Tin here, waiting for 15 german cars that can keep the pace in stock format with a GTR or ZR1....at any price point

can we make both of these guys our official "fargostreet euro toolshed douchebags"? like a special edition rainbow avatar or something?
its obvious none of us are going to change the other ones mind. even though your arguments are funny because you never come up with factual numbers about how the majority of street driven euro cars would stomp street driven jdm cars.(which is exactly what you said to start thsi whole thing).. you just keep arguing and using your opinion. this is pointless and i cant handle debating with someone who doesn't know how.

Who the hell races stock cars anyways?Bingo, that is the finishing touch right there. People with BMW's, Porches, etc do. With the exception of the mazda miata, which has its own weekend racing series, there really isn't many people racing stock Japanese cars. Putting in safety gear does not count as modifying. Think maybe there is a reason for that? I have kinda been sitting on the fence this whole thread and both sides have a point, since like the miata there are exceptions. I tried to guide the arguements into specifics since I can't really multitask on my blackberry very well. Concentrating on two manufacturers and their respective model lineup can make this go a lot faster.
Nissan vs BMW
Maxima vs 5 series
And yes the maxima costs less than a 5 series, but with Nissans new "four door sports car" advertising they are trying to compete directly with the bimmer. Pretty sure the 5 series is the better car here especially on the track.
370Z vs 1 series
All the reviews I have read comparing the two have the Z as the faster car
Altima vs 3 series
Umm no comparison as far as track manners are concerned.
Mini vs Sentra
Lmfao one is fun and cute the other is a breadbox with wheels
I tried to match up similar cars in the case of the Z and the 1 series they are actually pretty closely priced, that being said however it comes out 3 to 1 BMW. Hardly an every euro is better situation and in the case of the two door sporty/reasonably priced car category, IMO the one that matters most, the Germans fell short. -

BMW has never put a BMW badge on a FWD car for sale anywhere in the world.

That's nice... I'm not slamming BMW's, like i said before I love them, and want an E34 very bad... There's just not as much of a want for RWD cars up here.. sure u can drive them in winter, but i'd much rather have fwd or awd for that, therefore i dont feel like buying a car i can only drive half the year... Yes i'm highly aware that BMW makes awd cars, but seriously i'd rather have my scoob than a bmw when it comes down to that....
Oh by the way thrash... buddy of mine pm'd u on another forum about ur M5 and whether ur willing to part any of it out or not...

The cars are built differently, and it stands to reason that the RWD platforms will be better performers. That Z is the wild card in my breakdown tho and if you bother to look closely there are more to be found. So this arguement will live on. Like pushrod V8's, a mans engine, versus high revving 4 cylinders, childrens toys
