I watched this some time ago, I feel if the FQ had the proper person driving it, the GT-R would be dethroned!

This is a 100000 repost. How can anyone compare these cars they are fully different. Also the GT-R wins so what does this give the evo x owners to cheer about? The fact that they lost? You don't win one round in boxing but lose the match and then claim victory.

Yes. The fact they lost to a car twice the price, and made a hell of a showing of it.

It's not like a Civic vs. a GT-R, the Evo did amazingly well for the price you paid.

People love the Corvette for the same reason, or the GT-R for the same reason; compared to the SUPER mega-buck cars, they might not win, but they do DAMN good.

Yeah the price on those FQ cars are silly. You could turn an Evo X into a full-blown race car for that kind of money...suspension, full carbon, roll cage, everything. I've seen some fine specimens for sale on here for far less.

That makes no sense at all... he said 49,999 pounds, about $100,000. In actuality it's about $80,000.

As for the 33,000 pounds part... close, but yes. The base model is 29,499 pounds. That'd come out to roughly $47,000...

anyone in their right mind would take a GTR over an evo..but for the significantly lower price tag the evo is a hell of a deal to even be compared to the GTR

exactly....if a car sells for 29,999 pounds in England....they sell it for $29,000. just because the FQ400 is 50,000 pounds doest mean its 80,000 dollars....

look at ferraris for instance....they sell for say 180,000 USD....well in England they are 180,000 pounds. In the Euro car market they fluctuate the price to coincide with a reasonable price to sell the car....

so there doing the he said 49,999 pounds, about $100,000. In actuality it's about $80,000 doest apply....if it is 49,000 pounds...if it were to be sold in America it is $49,000.

BMW M3 Coupe for example as well... 50,000 pounds....

http://www.bmw.co.uk/bmwuk/pricesand...%3D%3D,00.html

in USA 57,000 Dollars (extra money is probably shipping, tax, etc)

http://www.bmwusa.com/standard/conte...e/default.aspx

but damn close to the same...
