some guy just tried telling me that his 2.2L ECOTEC SATURN is better than my 3.0L VQ30DE I30. i didnt even bother fighting him cuz it would be pointless. i kno in my heart that my infiniti is way better than any saturn except maybe the ion redline although style wise i still win.

Take him for a nice cruise to show him the I30 is a much more smooth car, then race him to show him we are a lot faster, after you done that send him on his way to saturn...

He was talking about speed, gas mileage, style, and performance.

You were going to fight someone because they didn't share your same point of view?

Speed - I30 would win in acceleration and Top Speed. You win.

Gas mileage - 2.2 ECOTEC will get better mileage. He wins.

Style - That's subjective, no winner.

Performance - What type of performance? Speed, you win, we talked about that already. I would guess his Saturn brakes faster and does better on the skid pad, however. 1 for you, 2 for him

my mom ownes a Saturn L200 with the 2.2 Ecotec, that engine is a freakin dog. the handling is a bit better than our larger, heavier cars. but otherwise, our cars have Saturns beat out in almost every way.
