No ---- there are a lot faster dumbestic cars then imports. The bigger the engine, the more power, right? That's something we can all agree with. I'd just rather spend 6 grand total, and make my Integra run 12s than buy an LS1 Camaro for 12k and run 13's.

I think in the world of street racing imports ownz most domestics why? for example on the autobahn where the average speed is 100mph and cars like mercedes audi and seat and renault are cruising at 160mph. an American car thats rated about 200 more hp than those cars cant even follow one of those cars. and me with a 1.8l civic or my my boy with a 1.6 can chase them down and pass them with only revving to to 8400-8600rpm with rev limits set to 9600. a domest will redline at 6000-7000rpm and might blow if they continue to drive that high for too long, on the other hand I can cruise at 120mph without boosting. domestic companies are great truck makers, and if I ever buy a truck it will be a chevy silverado, but I think they need to take notes out of the import book.
just my opinion on the cars. another thing dodge ownz all domestics
