Who are you to tell me to relax!?!?!? HOW DARE YOU!?!?!? go to hHEELLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

j/king aside...

Of course I know the G35 is essentially a 4 seat 350Z with aInfinity badge. I'm not that dumb!

I'm not saying that I'm insulted by people telling me the fact.

I'm referring to the racist remarks made by people at the begining of this thread that no-one here seems to mind, but as a person of Japanese origin I do find offensive.

Enjoy!

I thought FIAT meant.. Fix It Again Tony!

mmm Skittles :)

Oh that is it, you racial SOB, I suppose you don't like Italians either! Help Bruce HELP!!!

Are you saying that you consider someone who calls a Japanese-built sports car a "rice-rocket" is a racist?

Just checking.

discriminatory, prejudiced - being biased or having a belief or attitude formed beforehand; "a prejudiced judge.


Actually, I always thought of the term "rice rocket" in a positive light, i.e, a very very fast sports car originated in Japan or other parts of Asia.

Early versions were the 240ZX, Datsun 5000 etc.

Nothing wrong with those cars IMHO.

Northing wrong with the current 350ZX either.

:)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought "rice rocket" all started with the Japanese Motorcycle invasion; an invention of the Harley boys.

Blech! I hate friggin'Skittles.

But, I like Swedish Fish.

If I hated Swedish Fish, would that make me a racist?

It's not what you said. It's the way you said it! - nah you're probably right about where it came from but it's still a derogatory term.

If Racist tones are welcome in this forum Richard then allow me to re-calibrate my thoughts on you guys as a whole. (are you calling me a Bigot now? - wow!)

BTW the fastest lap time charts are littlered with Nissans as well as Porsches.

Can't wait for a group test between the 911 & the new GT-R

'ring Lap Times

.

no fishist

.

There are a lot of things from Sweden I'd eat. The GTR from Nissan has apparently taken the fastest Nurenburg ring lap, kudos to them. The vehicle looks like a locomotive, not pretty in my eyes but it's clearly fast and at 70K it should give Porsche some headaches for sure.

That might be right. Many folks call the Japanese Big Four bikes rice rocket, as they are rockets.

I agree, the modded 350ZX is freeky fast. I have had three or four 300 ZX's and loved every one of them.


BTW-No we do not welcome racist remarks and I am not calling you a bigot. However, I was trying to figure out what you considered racist.

:)

Funny! Good one.
:D

FIAT stands for Fix It All the Time!

Ford stands for Round On the Road Dead.

I am sure we can think of some more.

Ain't that the truth!

Actually, I would like to visit Scandanavia in summer after Global Warming makes its climate seem like SOCAL.

:D

Fix Or Repair Daily

Wrong, it's First On Race Day, you inbred Getta Mechanic fan.

EASY Jack, I have a Mountineer, a Mercury product. You know what that is right? A FORD with lock washers....
