Remember the Fiero quarrel that we had

awhile back?
well, two nights ago, i was taking my girl home. as i passed a gas station, i saw a black fiero SE that was revvin in the parking lot, i slowed down considerably to wait for him and sure enough, he came right next to me wantin to race. the light turned red so we had enough time to prepare. needless to say, i burnt the crap out of him. he had an automatic. those things are so slow off the line. geez! hehe. i was so stoked cuz at first, i thought all SEs were v6. now i just looked it up and some were the crappy 4-bangers!! man! i was so stoked at first! hehehe, actually it just got me into the mood to race my uncle and his v6!!
umm...moderators: the reason i posted this here is cuz i thought it'd be more relevant in this side of the forum since we already talked about fieros!

later
Josh

I'm just wondering if anyone else here considers their rotary motor to be similar to a V6. I mean I walk on V6 powered cars from time to time. but it's not like we are actually driving two cylinder motors or even 1.1-1.3L motors. more like 6's and 2.2-2.6L motors

i'm not

i'm not scared off by v6's at all.
i'll attempt to take v6 stangs and 5.0s don't scare me either!
the newer v6s are getting better but i'm still not scared.

yep

that's a very good way to put it, pele.
very smooth, very loud, and very simple. i think the simplicity is why i like my car so much. it's easy for me to understand!!!
