    Hi all, I know this may not generate quite the enthusiastic discussion a babe related thread might but as I was driving amongst the cages the other day and I was wondering what the car equivalent of a VFR might be.
    Anyway I was just curious as to what the collected wisdom here might reveal...

    Against my better judgement of comparing a bike to a car...I will throw my vote in on this one....

    Since the only color better than RWB is just white :biggrin:, in order to have the ability to hit the twisties and still make it outside of state lines when needed, I say if the VFR were to enter some twisted universe where it became a cage, it would be a Mitsubishi 3000GT, pearl white of course.

    Well, I'm completely biased here, but what about a Bonneville SSEi

    Supercharged great all around car, comfy on long trips with the balls to blow doors off when needed.

    Its just a sacrilige to compare a two wheeler to a four wheeler. Kinda liked the Datsun Blue Bird comparison tho.

    I have a Ford Taurus.

    The Taurus is red, the VFR is red.
    The Taurus is comfortable, the VFR is comfortable.
    The Taurus has reasonable power, the VFR has reasonable power.
    The Taurus has spoked aluminum wheels, the VFR has spoked aluminum wheels.

    See, they are exactly the same except one is a car and the other is a motorcycle! :tongue:

    Hmmmm I hadnt thought about the Lexus but I can see it. Also :[​IMG]

    And I think this becuase its not particularly efficient but people love them for their engines and they are a little bit unique:

    I believe the equivalent car would be slightly heavier than a racer, a non-traditional engine, be pretty easy to drive comparatively, and still have the ability to teach you what's what.
    My vote, then: GOJIRAH

    it's less powerful and heavier than a corvette, but can still kick ass and take names.

    I'm going to go with a Subaru Legacy - Coupe. Versatile, quick, good in the corners and long drives. This is a special 2-door version.

    And of course it's SILVER!

    Accura TL (Type-S).

    Sporty, comfortable, able to carry passengers & baggage and very reliable. However, I wish it was more of a BMW M3...
