Ha ha ha ha.. blah.

Pretty short sighted mentality there. I gave you more credit than that Nark.

Just like a HSV and sportivo? Far from it. The only similarity is the basic shell.


WRX = Imprezza with bigger engine, drivetrain mods, bodykit
HSV = Commodore with bigger engine, drivetrain mods, bodykit
Sportivo (Corolla) = Corolla with bigger engine, drivetrain mods, bodykit

Where can you not see the similarity? Can you explain to me why a WRX is not a beefed up shopping trolley? Or why it wouldn't be grouped in the same class as the HSV and Sportivo range?

After that remark, I don't think it's worth arguing the rest because it'll go nowhere, and really, I now fail to see what argument there actually is with you singing praises to a car you can't even buy locally for the purposes of the topic, and that I didn't argue against for you to defend. I didn't say it was crap or wasn't a sports car. If you like it that much, sell the sillycar and buy one.


What's this talk about the 200SX not being locally delivered? It was locally delivered from circa 1991 to 2002. I'm talking from a historical viewpoint here as to why a superior car was outsold by mouth to mouth marketing of another.
And this was the crux of the whole argument. That marketing can help sell crap cars over superior competition.

For me personally, I want a uzz31 and a jza80. Yes they are imports because that's the only option I have left for a decent car.


On one hand you dismiss the 200SX because it's not locally delivered then you say you want a UZZ31?

Oh, and the 200SX (S14 and S15) is a Silvia. They're one and the same, not a beefed up version of another.

I've concentrated on the 200SX to simplify the argument. You can replace the 200SX with the MX-5 if you want. I've driven them and I'd take the underpowered MX-5 over the WRX any day. It actually handles.
