Who looks better, Megan Fox or Carmen Electra?

I don't understand how you can judge people for having opinions about styling of a car. If we all liked the same thing, then everyone would have the same car.

No. Slap yourself! We'd be all walking the goose step if we all had that mentality!

i honestly could say that i can see how someone thinks a balt does look better than a genesis.

for me, i think its a toss-up but u have to realize that the genesis is really trying hard to look good and cobalt is more of a cleaner looking car with simple curves and features...

if you take a stock genesis versus a cobalt ss with blacked headlights or projectors, the evo mod, tinted tails, and wingless than to me the cobalt looks better. thats the cobalt trying to look good like the genesis

The genesis is the biggest knock off on the market. the worst part is it falls short of its main target the g37. if you have a clear goal on what to beat and you cant its time to give up.

It's simple guys. Look at the only sport coupe that has been successful and profitable the last 2 decades. Ford Mustang V6 Autos. Why? Because women buy them by the truckloads.

Name me one serious performance turbo coupe that has been profitable?

300z
Supra
VR4 / Stealth TT
TBird
3.8T Firebird
RX-7

All excellent cars but all were financial ruin for their companies. 98% of customers want a good looking car with an ergonomic cabin and a good warranty. The manufacturers need to be able to build something that will last. A 400hp turbo V6 genesis would be sweet but it's not going to make any money. Would you go to work for free?

although this has been pointed out many times... you are a ********. Seriously find something better to do than troll this forum looking to bash peoples posts. I have yet to see something positive come out of your mouth about something someone else has said. For someone who is all about bashing others opinions.. you sure are quick to press your opinions of their statements onto them. seriously dude we're here to talk about cars and enjoy each others posts (true or not). It's the internet. Take things with a grain of salt like the rest of us do and stop taking every post as the word of God to the point where you have to bash the hell out of it until noone wants to come here anymore because they can't say what they want without some ******* stating his opinion about how everyone else is full of **** and wrong. don't get me wrong .. you're allowed to have an opinion just like the rest of us but for once try saying something positive about something someone says and contributing to the site in a positive manner instead of cutting everyone down. The internet is full of bullshitters and liars and most of us understand that... so don't add to the problem by being a ***** to everyone because you feel it is your duty to call bullshit on every post you think isn't possible.

i wasn't questioning that logic... what i was doing was using this one statement as an example of how he approaches every statement anyone else makes. Why is it hard to beleive that someone who owns a tiberon can't be confident enough in it to want to race for decent change. People who race for big money don't always have to drive a super car... this isn't the movies :P hell i make decent enough money and i drive a cobalt :P
