My friends told me driving geo metros were fun and I read good reviews about them so I'm gonna buy it.
Don't worry tho, it isn't powerful but Geo is fixing this in few years.

Sums up the thread.

I see your point but comparing a BRZ to a Geo is flat out retarded.

I'm not racing dickheads.  It needs more power before it would be feasible for me.  I think I've explained this thoroughly.

In certain situations opinions are influenced by others, specifically when there are no facts to be had.  This isn't one of those cases.

You call me unintelligent yet you resort to name calling and ranting after I said I was trolling you on purpose 2 pages ago.

Your argument is far from sensible.  It's built upon a sandy foundation of other people's opinions.  The whole problem here is you are trying to influence my opinion with other people's opinions.  I told you they don't matter to me and they won't change my own opinion.  You refuse to accept that.

Who is the bullheaded babbling moron in this situation?






You don't have to take my opinion.  It's my fucking opinion.  You have your own.  It's ok to disagree.  Buy one if you want.  BUT, based on MY opinion, I won't be buying one.  I'm not trying to change your mind.


Those aren't theories by the way.  Those 1/4 mile times are going to be extremely accurate.  It's physics.  Drag racing is all about math.  The stock 6spd manual/stock tire record will probably be 13.8-13.9.  I'll put money on that.  Average driver's will run 14.3-14.5.  Magazines will quote 14.5-15.5 because they can't drive and they run on random ass un-prepped roads.

In my opinion that is far too slow for anything designed to be sporty given what else is out there right now.  It's too slow for ME.  Now get off my nuts.







Again, I don't care how "special" the car feels.  It's just not fast enough.  Subaru and Toyota don't know any secret tricks to make a 200hp car run 12's.  If they did they would have done it by now.  This is all my opinion.







My my you are a dense one.  I've done all the research I need to.  You are looping back to your original point.  My numbers/specs are cold hard data that cannot be influenced by any amount of "driving pleasure."  Liking how it handles and the road feedback will not make it faster.  I'm not spending $25-30k on something that won't push me back in the seat at all.  I don't care about those editorials.  Who said I never read them either?  It really, really sounds like you are just butthurt because I feel like the car does not suit me and I won't buy one.  How childish is that?  Maybe you should go back to college.  We (society) don't need pigheaded people like yourself making decisions in our adult world.

We are both being major hypocrites....

You keep going on about power and I don't care because that's not what the car is about, for the fucking hundredth time.  I don't care if it's not enough power for you and I NEVER told you that you have to or should buy the car.

AND just to remind you, i'm not just alluding to reviewer articles, I'm alluding to people who own the car.

" Gear after gear and corner after corner I started to fall in love with the FR-S, I asked my self after pulling into the pits (This must be sorcery a 200hp car that can put a smile on my face just as well as cars that cost more than twice the price?) what’s the catch there had to be a catch since it was so much fun and I seemed to enjoy my self as much as driving any of the other cars that I had…. And then it hit me, this may not be the fastest car ever nor the most luxurious or refined but its pure purpose is to make the driver feel in control feel the connection between man and machine, this car serves the pure purpose of fun and I like fun!! Toyobaru I applaud you for this car, thank you for bringing back the fun in the everyday car. "

If every reviewer/owener is saying something along the lines of this, don't you feel like it COULD  be true?  And Remember....this guy is coming from faster vehicles than you have ever owned.

In case you can't read.

-little power
-Didn't matter

There you go again trying to convince me that my opinion is wrong.  Let me be happy not paying $500 a month for one of these.  All I've done is defend my own opinion.  I'm not saying yours is wrong.  I really don't get why you can't grasp that.  STOP trying to convince me to buy one.  It's sickening.  You don't know me, what I like, or what I find appealing about a car.  You never will.  Leave it be.  If I say it doesn't have enough power for me to buy it, IT DOESN'T.  Straight from MY fucking mouth.  The part you put in bold shows that you haven't understood a word I've said.  You call me an unintelligent moron yet you still think I'm trying to tell you that the car is about being fast and making power.  You can't resist arguing with someone whose opinion opposes your own.  Childish...  You say you haven't told me to buy one but you can't keep your fingers off the keyboard when it comes to proving my opinion incorrect (impossible by definition).  One day you will respect the opinion of others even if it doesn't match your own.  Apparently you are still in the impressionable stage of youth that binds you to one group's opinion to the point that you nuthug it and refuse to accept any others.



You said yourself a car that can do 0-60 in 5.9 seconds is fast.  You tell me I have unreasonable expectations for speed.  Now you resort to something worded as an insult after a quote from a guy that loves the FRS he just bought.  You say this guy comes from faster vehicles than I've ever owned.  Let's keep in mind most minivans are fast to you along with V6 Accords.


This is what that guy has owned in the past 2 years:

400whp 240SX, 370 WHP E90 M3, 590 WHP GT-R , and a 420WHP C63


The only one on that list that is fast is the GT-R.  I'm in, around, and involved with cars every bit as fast as that and much faster.  You are a pompous prick.  First you tried to tell me my expectations were too high, then you tried to tell me I don't know what fast is.  You are a joke.  Grasping at straws... Just leave it alone man.  Buy one of these things.  Please, don't post about it when you do.  I'd hate for someone to suggest they wouldn't have bought it in your thread.

1.  There you go again trying to convince me that my opinion is wrong.  I'm not
2. Let me be happy not paying $500 a month for one of these.  I won't be, with my calculations, I will pay a MAXIMUM of $350.  My payments will be most likely $250 or less.
3. STOP trying to convince me to buy one.I'm not.
4.First you tried to tell me my expectations were too high, then you tried to tell me I don't know what fast is.You have to realize....Like I've stated multiple times, I'm talking about DDing cars....not a drag track.  So yes, your expectations, your standards are ridiculous for dding.

5.  You don't know me, what I like, or what I find appealing about a car. You never will. Leave it be.  From this thread....it's clearly obvious you want power......common sense.

6.This is what that guy has owned in the past 2 years:

400whp 240SX, 370 WHP E90 M3, 590 WHP GT-R , and a 420WHP C63 If these cars aren't fast enough DDers for you, you have issues.



Feel free to attempt to insult me again....It's not working....HOWEVER, if you're trolling, you're very successful.

Read this and read this carefully.....

I'm not trying to tell you to buy the car...You're claiming this car has too little power for you. FINE-----I got that a LONG TIME AGO.

The only thing you have right is that I like to argue.


Goodnight pumpkin.
