which do you think would be a more worthwhile purchase, /o/?

>>17266709
You know I'm curious about the Genesis as well, 2.0 or the V-6, I kinda wanna look into one.

frs if you're into motorsports. genesis if you like to go to car meets and highway pulls

>>17266709
I can already see the responses. Thanks OP.

The 2.0 can be made to make more power, more cheaply than the V6

The FRS is a better buy if you actually intend to drive it aggressively

Any threads involving Korean cars will usually end with a flame war

>>17266709
I've been contemplating this as well, OP. Where I live the genesis coupes are a lot cheaper and I can't justify 20k Canadian didgery-doos for the FR-S.

>>17266709
Orion blew up his 2.0T Genesis. Subaru is superior anyway

>>17266734
Huh after market support that much better for the 2.0 or does it just have more tuning potential because of boost?

>>17266762
nobody here gives a shit about what some dumbass teenager did to his genesis

Just get a civic.

>>17266781
Don't do this. The only reason these were ever cool is because of VTAK and high revs. It has none of those things now.

>>17266755
Op here, I'm pretty sure the genesis is about the weight of a mustang, which is a huge turn off. on the plus side, it A) makes more power and B) isn't a mustang

>>17266781
I want a sports car, I'm tired of sport trims on economy cars. SIs and STs are still dope though

>>17266763
Its already turbo'd, as such there's more options for forced induction, they can be boosted to 300 easy, and reach 400 cheaper than putting on a basic FI system on the V6 and just barely getting that.

>>17266793
The fatboy's 3.8L is. Granted, the 2.0 isn't much lighter, but it is.

>>17266786
Not even VTAKK?

>>17266992
It probably has iVTEC but I wouldn't be surprised if you can barely feel it at all now. The new Civic SI redlines at 6.5k

6
.
5
k

That means when iVTEC kicks in yo at 5.8k, you're on it for like 700 rip em's max. I was disappointed when they brought it down from 8k. IMO that was the distinguishing feature of Hondas. Now it's just the most boring FWD you can buy.

>>17266734
The 3.8 is the superior engine

The Genesis.

I usually side with 'yotas but the 86 is just a fucking embarrassment.

>>17267423
yes but to get more power out of it you have put 5grand down first.

>>17267444
It already makes enough power

>>17266709
The FR-S is bloody slow no matter how you look at it.

>>17267453
>"enough"

>Slower than a mustang.
>less reliable.

>>17266866

I know it's already turbo'd was just wondering if the support for it is good, which it seems it is.

I'd rather suffer the embarrassment of having penis windows than get outrun by a mini van.

i like cherry picking information too, do i get a dank meme frog image?

all this from an underpowered naturally aspirated 4 banger.
