What would you buy right now if the Gen 6 never existed? - Page 2

Aaron07 · 05-13-2021, 04:03 AM

Cadillac CTS V or a Vette

Camaro_QC · 05-13-2021, 05:06 AM

A 370Z. I would never buy the 400Z, it looks so ugly in my opinion.

I had a 1982 Celica/Supra for about 10 years. Fun little car.

What would I buy now, probably a C7.

C7

Venomcustom · 05-13-2021, 06:19 AM

C7 or C8. Definitely not an import

I'd be in a 2018 or 19 Honda Accord EX Sport 6 speed manual with the detuned version of the 2.0 turbo 4 in the Civic Type-R. Then I'd have tuned it back up to Type-R's power levels.

The Celica/Supra (and then when they split the name into two separate cars) were both some of the best sports cars Toyota ever built.

I thought after the 1994 redesign the Supra got too swoopy and I hate huge spoilers. And the 1999 Celica redesign got too edgey. But until the end of the 1993 model year for the Supra, and end of the 1998 model year for the Celica, they were great looking cars with world class performance.

The current Supra is a farce. It's a BMW with no manual transmission. Not even a Supra in name only - the production stamping all over the car has BMW logos on it lol.

There was a time when Toyota had some soul in their DNA. Sadly no more.

Mustang GT and turbo it

110% agree with everything you said.

I’d go back to a C7 Grand Sport or a C6 Z06. I’ve owned both and they were fantastic cars. I was really intrigued by the 6th Gen Camaro redesign and after test driving the SS 1LE, I was hooked on these new Camaro’s. I love my current ZLE and it’s kinda ruined me for other cars because it drives so damned good!

Fraxum · 05-13-2021, 07:39 AM

I would definitely buy a M6 Coyote Mustang if the Camaro did not exist. And if both the Camaro and the Mustang go electric or go away, I would buy a M6 392 Challenger.

These three cars offer the most world class all around performance for under $40K. Amazing.

My daily might someday be a station wagon hybrid.

prices? psh. money, hoes and clothes.

i have no interest in a c8 bc no manual trans. and it wouldn't blend well with my lack of income, credit and any other qualifiers for guys who nix the c8 based on trans.
