Wtf? Found this on another forum. Another Mazda forum at that.

Well, you could look at it from the standpoint that the car looks like it is even faster then it is. Or that it is amazingly fast considering the hp/tq numbers.
Or.. 4AT FTW! |
lawl 150whp? *slaps forhead*
|
At least it's authentic :)
&sexy haha |
Well im happy with my "150" hp...its amazing how everyone other than experienced drivers think our cars suck. So Ill keep on being happy knowing that only people with good taste appreciate what our cars can do.
|
Ha Ha!
Why do they put such effort into attacking such a small population? |
Some People wish they could have a piece of history.
|
doesnt matter how many whp my car has. i do faster lap times than lots of other "faster" cars on the track and that's all that matters to me.
so do miatas muahhaa |
HP - not all that's it cracked up to be
Remember the old, old comparos of:
HIGH end crotch rocket (Yamaha R1) vs a Porsche 4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at6VK-Yf2Pc The bike wins the accel, car wins the braking into the twisties. I thought I read they put an older twin-turbo RX-7 vs a Miata on a track. They ended with nearly indentical track times. RX-7 wins the accel, Miata wins the twistyies. I'll take my RX-8 anyday.

Psh...that car needs some rims.
|
Dont worry about hp #s and stuff...just keep in mind the old saying..."HP sells cars but TQ wins races" o wait...lol
|
:lol: what mazda forum did that!! Someone photoshop A different Mazda and the name to get them back!! hahaha
|
|
They must have never seen a 7th generation Toyota Celica.
|
haha, for anyone who uses facebook, I made a 'bumper sticker' out of the image!! haha. While everyone takes it as an insult, I think its hilarious.
|
150 whp 14 mpg no torque and the engines are weak. If they are going to diss it at least cover all bases.
|
Yes we're the slowest group on earth.
but Im sure my car can attract more chicks than *their* car. Thats all it matters to me. Not to mention, people who've said that have NEVER EVER been to a real race on a race track. |

fwiw communism does work if you remove the human elements such as free thought. thankfully a motor cant think on its own. :) |
I miss my "slow" sports car - My "fast" econobox just doesn't cut it. :(
|
It happened on another Mazda forum?
I'm curious if it was a Mazda Protege owner...you want to talk about engine failures and a slow car?!? |

For all the rx8 haters on other sites, maybe they should read this article and see just how good this car is. I own the rx8 and i know it's not the faster car in the world, hell i own a 4AT i dont try to race anybody, i love my car because of how great it is, the handling and just that smile i get on my face knowing that i dont have to let off the gas when im approaching a curve at 50mph. I have friends of mine with GTI's 350z's and all these others cars telling me how they would destroy my car...i laugh and tell them that there right, but this is not the fast and furious or anything like that. That what most people dont understand about our unique machines. |
150 is BS, my car made 170whp with bad coils
|
lol
Whenever I'm with a girl and I see an evo/sti/etc I ask, "Hey, which car do you think is faster, that one or mine?" "Yours!" |

so do miatas muahhaa Regarding the 7th gen Celica, that car is even more under-rated than the 8. IIRC, people used to get about 155-160 whp on stock cars - that's pretty decent for a 1.8L four. I actually consider it the FWD equivalent of the 8 in a couple of ways. 1. It is lighter and handles better than it's competitors 2. It has less torque than its competitors and people bitch about it. |
i remember referring to a yellow gt-s at VIR last summer as a rolling road block. that guy would not let me pass. he got so many blue flags by the corner guards.
crappy driver. :/ |
