This is comedy gold...and quite interesting to say the least. I hope it's not a repost, but the ending is somewhat satisfying for Z owners. :gap:

[F35-JSF]

Before I view I'd put my money on the 300.

Hehe, great little vid. Entertaining stuff. They should've had the old-school supercharged MR2 up against that Spyder.

[Tien's 00celica]

Good vid, but someone else did post it over the weekend.

[pnoygts]

doesn't matter. 350Z is the next iteration of Nissan's Z car. Hence the Z in the model designation.

But to answer your question, they were what? 40k or so right?

Nice. that was funny, with the Peugeot 206 vs. 205

I don't think it's too unfair. It would be a fun matchup on the dragstrip. Here are some specs on the old school sc'ed MR2:

I dont think they ever sold the supercharged version in the UK.
