Squad51 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm not buying the validity of that list at all. You have to take into account production numbers and the numbers of those cars actually on the road. Sure the GTR is fast, but how many are out there compared to Scion? Not only that, but VW Rabbit and Toyota Supra on the list? Both of those cars ended production a long time ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akasa Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I wasn't surprised in the least about the WRX. I AM surprised about the Tribeca, Subaru sells like none of them. I'm imagining it's probably just one crazy driver ruining it for the other 2 Tribeca owners in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Capacity Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 A Topaz made the list..yea right. I think they stopped making those in the late 1980's. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

kred Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Haha, yes! We're not in the top 20. Just goes to show you the sleeper reputation of the LGT. I mean even a Prius made the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starionesir Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Lol on the mercury topaz. Maybe was for most parking violations as owners abandoned the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm imagining it's probably just one crazy driver ruining it for the other 2 Tribeca owners in the US. +1 I can't believe the Tribeca made the list ... I mean even a Prius made the list. I can't believe a Prius made the list. Funny, I was pulled over yesterday because I didn't have a front license plate and had a clear cover over my rear plate.

landark Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I'm not buying the validity of that list at all. You have to take into account production numbers and the numbers of those cars actually on the road. Sure the GTR is fast, but how many are out there compared to Scion? Not only that, but VW Rabbit and Toyota Supra on the list? Both of those cars ended production a long time ago... My thoughts exactly. With the GTO, there was no base model like the Mustang, all or nothing. I own one and I can attest to the fact that the power is intoxicating and pretty much everyone who owns one is a lead-footed dope because of it (myself included, of course). With so many Mustangs on the road, and so many V6 models bought by people who don't want to drive fast, you are skewing the percentages. I guarantee that in a given month more Mustangs are pulled over than GTOs, Topazes, and 3000gts combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewLegGT67 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Who are these Prius owners? Maybe they just get tickets for parking where they want to (illegally) because of some "my car is green and I'm saving the world so I can park where ever I want":p I'm probably the only person that has Wu-Tang Clan and Paul McCartney on their mp3.

DonnyJagaru Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 A crock of shit. The Topaz has been out of production for twenty years. And its been about ten years since I've seen one on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
