Default American Muscle vs. Rice Burners

I should have named it "Import High Performance" rather then Rice Burners. I'm just so used to that phrase from my friends.

If you were to buy a new next-generation rear-wheel drive sports car, which would you prefer?

You just never seem to get that pull-back-in-your-seat feeling from an import rear-wheel drive car that you do from a good-old Camaro or Mustang.

You had a 68 RS and you sold it? Should I smack you now or later?

I want the '09 Camaro and am already looking for dealers in my area where I'm moving to that I can makes buddies with to get one. Hopefully I'll find a dealer that I can work with that I can use my supplier discount with (ha yeah i'm sure they will want to sell it that cheap when it comes out)

I was gonna say; There's nothing sweeter than the smooth flow of presicioned power from a finely tuned and balanced Supra..I can only imagine how much more they've improved from the times I owned one..OMG, it's pure sex! And yet, Toyota's resale on Supras are top of the shelf, compared to the raw brutality, unrefined, ill mannered American Muscle, that massively depreciates once you drive it off the lot.....But I think I'll just shut my mouth at this juncture[sm=rolleyes.gif][sm=smiley24.gif]

I'll put my Grand National against any import made...except maybe the Italian ones.

Again, I am truely jeolous of your Grand National, and as far as the Supra goes, they always seemed overpriced to me, just like the NSX, but, maybe I'm wrong.
