I am pretty sure the stealth wasn't as good a car as the VR-4. Imo no active aero body, dunno about the 4WS, but I doubt it, less gadgetry or something. I am pretty sure the VR-4 is a much better car over the stealth R/T

thanks for the nice response... glad no one made jokes... yeah... the vr4 has a lot more gadgets and stuff... but... doesnt that make the stealth lighter and faster if the engine specs are the same???

They are very similar cars, I remember reading them in an article...I can't pinpoint which areas of similiarity they share...but there are.
