  1. Atomic, are you mentally okay? I mean, seriously... you have issues. cintron: Sure, that'd be cool and all, if they didn't look like ugly ass Pontiacs with a body kit. ;-)
  2. Yeah, I can't really disagree the car does feel "big". For me, at 6'1", part of it is steering wheel/ seat position. I really need a steering wheel with a spacer to move it away from the dash a little, and I think that'd really change my perspective on how much control of the car I have. Though I will say it has quite a bit less understeer than I thought it would, being a FWD based AWD car. And learning to launch it took time, thats for sure ;-). Nothin like chirping all four tires! :-D
  3. What is this limited potential for power output you speak of? Considering the stock block itself can handle at LEAST 650hp, I'd say theres quite a bit of potential there... And again, its only 250lbs heavier than a Supra, so I wouldn't call that a "fat pig" by any means. Don't get me wrong, I don't think its the BEST CAR IN THE WHOLE WORLD, but I hate to see so many people so misinformed.
  4. Stock weights per edmunds.com: Turbo Supra: 3445 lbs. Turbo 300ZX: 3502 lbs 3000GT VR-4: 3737 lbs. (on a side note, Naturally Aspirated Base 3000GT: 3131 lbs.) I would call an under 300lbs difference not completely significant, especially considering it DOES have all wheel drive. Its my firm belief that these cars were severly underrated in the early 90's upon review, due to driving habits of the reviewers. In the early 90's, AWD sports cars were almost unheard of in the states, and you certainly can't drive it like a RWD car. And its my personal opinion that the 3000GT is exactly what a sports car SHOULD look like. Also, comparing stock cars to modified cars is retarded. ;-) Edit: Oh, and if you actually look at some reviews on body styling and interior design, you'll notice which wins 90% of the time.
