So you've never driven the car, and yet you've decides it's "slow as fuck" and not fun to drive. OK, what's your contribution to this thread? Coming in to attack me because you're still mad about last time?

You're dead wrong. Go look up the average weight of cars. The average weight of passenger vehicles (excluding vehicles used for commercial uses and commercial vehicles) is slightly under two imperial ton's (about 4000 pounds). I don't give a fuck about how much a Camaro weights, why does the weight of a single car tell me anything about the average weight of cars in general? A Camaro's curb weight is 3719 lbs. A Camaro has a 72 litre fuel tank (which is huge for a car). That's 116 lbs. Not sure how much the rest of the coolant and weight adds up to, but it's not a negligible amount. So a Camaro weights 3835 pounds at least with a full fuel tank. Of course that's a fucking boat.

How can you say the car is not deceptively fast if you haven't driven it? You literally can't say a bloody thing. Literally nothing. Again, what is the point of coming into this thread? To tell me I'm wrong when you can't because you haven't driven the fucking. Don't tell someone a car doesn't feel like something when you're driving when you haven't touched it. Plenty of cars feel different than the raw numbers would tell you. A car with a turbo feels faster than it actually is. That's "deceptively fast" (both in it not actually being on paper fast and in the feeling it gives you).




Where did I say I haven't driven one? Lol... Just because it is known as a hairdresser's car doesn't mean I haven't driven one. I've actually driven all 3 engine options from the first gen on the same day. Have you done that? Quit being such an assumptive prick.


The camaro was an example of a car that nearly everyone bashes for being really heavy and you said most compact cars weigh 3600lbs which is close to the weight of a Camaro. You are flat out wrong. You are too used to looking at Audis and other heavy luxury brands. 3000lbs is actually almost exactly the weight of an average compact car.

So now we have a compact car with above average weight and an average of 200hp between the engine options. So it isn't actually "light" compared to any of it's competitors and it isn't exactly "powerful", "fast". "spacious" etc. It's nothing. It is a very nothing kind of car and that is why no one talks about it. I'm sorry you have a fetish for audi and it is the only thing they have made that is under $15k used without the immediate probability of some sort of catastrophic failure. Everything you said is just wrong save the part that was your personal opinion. That's your opinion and that is fine. That doesn't mean I, or anyone else has to agree with it. Take a quick straw poll and see how many people think a TT would be a good "fun" summer car with a $15k budget.

Because you haven't fucking driven. Why in the fuck should I believe an arrogant, ignorant prick who first tried to attack my post because I said parts are cheap, then you tried to attack the post because you objected to me saying how it drives, again failing to understand what I'm saying. When all else fails make shit up?

No one talks about it? Why because I was the first person to mention it on the second page of a tiny automotive subforum? Just like I was the "only" person who thought what I thought in the last thread despite there being people in that thread who agreed with me. You really like saying how you represent everyone when it's almost always you just being a prick. What a shock that that same pattern holds here.

You're a sad, pitiful fool who needs to get his rocks off by acting like an (ignorant) expert on a tiny automotive subforum of Diablo 2 trading site. You're a miserable fool who clearly has to project your fucked up opinions as the majority opinion on a forum so small you don't have more people calling you out. Whatever makes you feel better about the terrible and pathetic life you must live.

So congratulations you just derailed a thread because you've got to be be a macho epeen fool. You're a fucking loser and you know it. Please keep replying, every time you do you're just reinforcing the fool who you are.

1) Don't care about warn
2) These boards don't like warning people for flaming anymore.

Nobody cares about warns, but you're still wrong about weights.

I'm thinking about buying an S2000. Was planning to buy a Brz, but would rather not void the warranty w/ a snail on it.
