Yeah...go check what it takes to get a car from 6.9 to 6.2 and then get back to me.

I don't care what it takes when you have a car thats gone 6.9 to 6.2 then talk.

To me its not impressive when a v8 beats a 4 cyl by just 2/3 of a second.

Okay. You're ignorant and happy to be ignorant. You've stated that. We can move on now.

and your closed minded and you've been throughout the thread. I would think you would of moved on by now. Learn what ignorant means before using the word. Here ass check out Dictionary.com you might learn how to use the word properly.

Don't get your panties in a wot when your so gun-ho about your v8's and someone like me shits on them in this thread.

If it was 4cyl vs 4cyl then yeah I would be impressed. But 4cyl vs v8 its not impressive to me.

Okay, check out the other DSM owner's post. Now...IGNORANT, lacking in knowledge. Here, let me use it in a sentance so you can catch it this time. You're clearly lacking the knowledge that going from 6.9 to 6.2 requires an unfathomable amount more power than you taking your shitbucket from 13.0 to 12.3. And its wad, not wot, smart guy.

Are you going to disagree with the people who drive the same shit as you who are agreeing with me, now? Oh god, this is rich.

Check out my response to his response. You seem to type faster then your brain can transmit to your fingers or is it your eyes move faster then your mind itself. Your clearly lacking the knowledge when it comes down to what this thread is about. Shitbucket lol... have you seen what you drive lately to call my car a shitbucket. Your one to talk.

dont get me wrong, a 6 second 4 cylinder is crazy fast, but you gotta remember its gonna be easier for a v8 to be faster.. usually... so i think a 4 cylinder bein able to do that with 2.0 liters does deserve alot of respect.

Exactly thats how come I wasn't impressed. It takes a lot more for a 4cyl to get there.
