V6 Vs. Some Japaneese Competitors

When i get my v6 i wanna know if itll beat the following ricers

Mazda 2007 Rx-8, Lightly modded not to the engine but about a 100lbs lighter than stock

2008 Honda Civic Si: no Mods, coupe
2009 Lancer Ralliart
2007 MazdaSpeed 3

I think itll beat all of these if im not mistaken, and it looks better than all as well

I am goin with 16 or 17. Who else would be getting a V6? And seeing as he is wanting to beat Hondas and Mazdas... gotta be a teenager. Its cool though, we were all there once no matter how "high and mighty" some of the people on here seem.


Here is the easy way to tell the age groups.

Age 16 - 21: Thinks their V6 is the fastest thing on the street and will actually race the Hondas, Mazdas, ect...

Age 22 - 35: Will laugh at the Hondas and Mazdas trying to race them and not waste the gas because they are straped for cash after paying the note on their new SS.

Age 35+ : Calls everything "rice" that they arent used to and wont race ANYBODY because they are "better".

HOWEVER, there are SOME exceptions to these rules, for example, a 34 year old with a mullet that watches nascar, thinks it takes tallent to race a quarter mile, and will race anything and everything that they make eye contact with.

I can understand where you're coming from, but saying only teenagers are getting the V6 is kind of ignorant. There is no reason to talk down upon the V6, it is an amazing motor at a great price. Lots of people from every age group are getting them.

I agree with kdbolt....

In the same paragraph you successfully condem yourself as being one of the "high and mighty" and forgive yourself.

I think he is speaking of the "racing" mentality for most. if you are getting the car to "race" (not on the street heaven forbid, is there anything more unsafe, I submit to you there is not!) those categories are pretty close I would say. He is not saying only V6 people are in the teens and the V6 is the crappiest engine every. I think he is just having fun with an immature question. Its OK, lighten up and have some fun with it, he asked the same question when he was 17.







Heck, I was asking that question when I was 30.

My 1987 Camaro RS has a 2.8 liter V-6 at 135 hp, I got it when I was 29 years old. I am now 50 years old and the New Camaro I am getting is a 2LT/RS. I am getting my New Camaro as a V-6 because my 1987 is a V-6 and also because only the LT's will have "RS" on them. If I choose/get the SS and with it the RS package it will have a red SS, except it will not have "RS" and I want an RS. I also already have a car with a V-8 in it and I do not what to have two cars that I have to put the higher grade of fuel in. One last note, A RICER is any car built in the Orient.
