      Did you honestly just say this?? Obviously, but that is the difference, you don't need as much power to go fast if you are lighter. That doesn't take away from their times.

      The civic also only has a 1.6L, it is a little easier to do with more than twice the displacement.

        probably lighter then that.

        The car also had probably a grand total of 90whp at the most.

            I'd rather drive a GTP than a turbo'd Civic. This is coming from a guy that drives a Honda.

                      And don't listen to bubba, he has nothing better to do than sit and argue that hondas are the only option.

                      Thanks. And my comment was addressed to him, not you.

                        No, they were the ones that came on here flaming us and ragging on hondas...I was just merely defending my stance... I had a regal 3.8L liked the car, always wanted a GN and kinda like the s/c regals... Everyone has their own choices, fine with me...doesnt have to mean u go into other forums just to stir shit up....

                        Understandable, and we get links like these every once in a while. I felt that this time I had to come in and defend the forum and appologize for some of our members that's all.

                        I only read the first 3 pages, so I don't know what was said. And sure a civic can corner better and weighs less. The grand prix has its pros and cons too.

                        I like GTPs, they are WAY WAY better then the 4.0L Olds Aurora in the garage next to my 240. Sucks to drive in anything other then dry pavement. and for being a luxury car no room.

                        I assume you're talking about the aurora. But the gp was never meant and isn't a luxury car.

                        As for handling, there's things we do to make our ride handle better (all of which I've done), just like you guys make your cars faster on straights.

                            In response to the pics. I haven't any new pics with my new hood. Therefore I don't like posting older ones. Just like I hate the fact that my tinted tails aren't in those pics

                              Honestly, its a decent looking car that has potential to be fairly fast. Props to you for liking the car you do. Some of us on here have different tastes and opinions on "fast" or "cornering" abilities. No problem there, as they are just that....opinions. Find any car out there and you will find one form of enthusiast or another for it. It doesn't mean that their cars are better than your car or my car, but that they have different tastes/needs. Which is great.

                              I have to say, the first time I raced a modded GTP I was surprised. I got STOMPED in my WRX (Ryan something or another is the GTP owner from Bismarck, ND)....and I thought my car was kind of a sleeper back then.

                                          I assume you're talking about the aurora. But the gp was never meant and isn't a luxury car.

                                          As for handling, there's things we do to make our ride handle better (all of which I've done), just like you guys make your cars faster on straights.

                                          Yup, talking about the aurora.

                                          My car well more then likely get kicked of the drag strip this year. And, once I get my driving ability up to the right level, the car has TONS of potential in the corners as well.

                                          PM me for:
