Why are American cars mocked for being supposedly unable to turn, yet Euro/Nip cars that are provably as fast or slower get a free pass?

The F-Type is fatter and worse handling than a Camaro, but that's fine because it's British I guess?
>>
Except the F-Type is regularly shat on for being pigfat and being ungainly in the handling dept.

Kill yourself and that persecution complex along with you, faggot.

Have you heard this thing? Even by 4cyl standards it's lame. A WRX sounds better. Thank fuck the GT4 is getting a 4L flat-6.

>>17207336
meanwhile an LS will last until the end of time with minimal maintenance thanks to its truck roots whereas any german trash will be totaled after the warranty runs out because everything has to be replaced, exceeding the car's value

Keep telling that to yourself
Porsche is and always will be 100x more reliable than any GM product. If you can't afford keep your plastic corvette and leave

it will be cheaper to own than a Corvette,
Better built, fuel efficient, lighter and not overpowered to the twistys.
I'm not saying you should get it instead of a corvette, most will get the corvette, I just think it's nice to have both offered in our market

Butthurt weebs and yurocucks.

The real answer is that it's just 20th century memes like how German cars are "over-engineered" and automatics are slower than manuals that persisted into the new millennium by journos and benchracers who watch Top Gear. Before the 2000s, only a handful of American-made sportscars were considered to have "good" handling on part with their European and Japanese rivals. There was some truth to them back then, but that was literally decades ago and the industry has since advanced and become more globalized. Such memes simply aren't true anymore.
>>
@17208362
The GT-R is Japanese, your argument is therefore moot.

Also, no (You) for (You).

YOU WANT MAZDA RUST?

YOU WANT FIAT RELIABILITY?

YOU PRETEND TO DRIVE STRAIGHT BUT GET BENT OVER AT EVERY TURNS?

LIVE THE DREAM, DRIVE AMERICAN!

>>17207311
In case you haven't noticed, people who actually drive and work on vehicles are too busy doing better things than to create and post in threads
>>
>>17207311
Where did the "American cars can't turn" meme even come from? Even in the 70's they could turn just fine with a bit of man handling. Even the old trucks and SUV's I've owned and driven have had no issues going around turns at illegal and belligerent speeds.

>>17208469
both aren't street legal, therefore it's a fair comparison

American cars dont handle well
They just go fast because huur big tires and aero and engines
>>
>>17209965
Sounds like cars like the Veyron, F1 LM and Carrera GT.
>>
Consider the tires a Camaro SS comes with - they cost over $200 each and last 5-15k miles.

Euroshit comes loaded with luxury features. With exception to the GT-R, Japshit hasn't been relevant for over a decade.

Also normies don't give a shit about performance. An M4 suggests to them that you're loaded, while a Camaro just makes you king of the trailer park.
