LOL - did you write this ? It's just as funny as the original. But you can't seriously tell me there's a difference between Canadian and US accents ? Christian I have several lifelong friends that are New Yorkers but I have always gravitated toward the weirdo's. - Richard Stringer
Oh there is a difference eh. You will know eh, when you speak to a Canadian eh. Ok eh?

;P :laugh: ;P Top response, I'll give that a 5! Don't forget though, we really don't all hate you - that'll just be be the English penchant for thinking of the world as foreigners even when they're abroad, (I'm Welsh - and will expect the appropriate response to that too :cool: ). I hope the outcome of today doesn't become a legal mess like last time for you guys, who ever gets the vote.

The corvette is superior to any German production sports car. http://www.chevrolet.com/corvette/[^] The Viper is superior in acceleration to any German vehicle but doesn't handle as well as some of the German vehicles. But is considerably cheaper. http://www.dodge.com/viper/[^] The Ford GT appears to be awesome but I have not personally driven one http://www.fordvehicles.com/fordgt/home.asp[^] The Caddy STS is a BMW drivers worst nightmare http://www.caranddriver.com/article.asp?section_id=3&article_id=8279[^] For an all around nifty little sports vehicle the Mustang is hard to beat on a price/performance basis. http://www.allfordmustangs.com/[^] If I knew what kind of car you were interested in I could narrow the search but in racing circles the German entries have been deficient for some time now. There are some nice import vehicles in the SUV and 4WD catagories such as the Taureg etc... but as far as off road performance is concerned its kinda hard to beat a Jeep.

American cars have come a long way, no longer the realm of waterbed suspension. Your sugestions are credible but IMO still not quite there in a holistic manner (except for the 4X4 mention. Thought I'd take a Landie over a Jeep. I can't remember if BMW still own Land Rover or not though.) Sports car wise, look no further than Porsche which might not outdrag a big block American but sure would beat it in most other departments. I tend to respect AutoCar for car reviews and they rate the Caddy well, still has a few years to prove itself though. Ford GT does seem awesome though we will have to see how the Audi supercar stacks up against it when it comes out. Of course, there is still the rest of Europe to contend with; Alfa Romeo, Lamborghini, Renault, Jaguar, Aston Martin and Peugeot. Admitedly many owned by American companies but the Europenas have influenced their parent companies IMO. And then we have Toyota! Watch out GM. They have already beaten Ford. Cars are great eh? I just need a bank balance to match :-D regards, Paul Watson South Africa Michael Dunn wrote: "except the sod who voted this a 1, NO SOUP FOR YOU" Crikey! ain't life grand?

Better than what comparable German car? I'd take a Porsche over a Corvette if forced to name a comparison German car. They are for different markets though. Different prices too. I don't think Germany produces a direct Corvette competitor; Maybe more the realm of far-east companies like Honda (S2000) or now Nissan (350Z). regards, Paul Watson South Africa Michael Dunn wrote: "except the sod who voted this a 1, NO SOUP FOR YOU" Crikey! ain't life grand?

The "over engineered" argument is just another way of saying "they're better engineers". ;P -- Weiter, weiter, ins verderben. Wir müssen leben bis wir sterben. Are you bright too?[^]
