Dumb question. Whats a g body?
Finaly somebody mentions termis.

Cutlass, Monte Carlos, Regals, Grand prixs, Malibus and El Caminos.

GM A body 68-72

GM G Body 78-88 (Though 78-80 were still A bodies)

Mopar B body 68-70 and E body 70-74.

Thanks, I agree with those being a good platform. From what ive seen of those cars they can really hook up on the street.

IMO the best platform is the one you know inside and out.

and has 4 wheels and an engine.

Best platform for a reasonably priced street/strip car. Pretty easy to comprehend.

Yeah, simple asshead.

Best like fastest quarter, best to drive, best looking, cheapest wtf are we talking about??

It could be a 2jz swapped rx7 thats completely gutted with no suspension and no interior covered with rust.
It could be something sophisticated and awesome like a gtr
It could be a tricked out diesel truck
It could be a 454 stuffed in a shitty S10


So yeah "best" is pretty fucking vague.


I will say a Chevy Monza and you can go put your google skills to the test.

I only read chevy monza but fuck google, I read books. Because im simple.

My last post was a fail but I really dont want to argue with you peaches.
Youre right though I was vague. Ill remember next time.

Wow asshead huh, name calling huh?

Well in that case.....

For all the dumbfucks (tusk is cool) on here that dont know what the hell street/strip means allow me to drop a knowledge bomb on your ass.

Street and strip means a vehicle that works well on the street and the dragstrip, he also made mention about your choices to be affordable. So highend euro super/hyper cars probably are not what he is talking about.

So to keep this thread on topic, I encourage you less than smart people to maybe think about what the fuck the question is before being a dick to somebody because YOU DONT UNDERSTAND IT.

Seriously, just a bad night?

Me personally, I am just backing up the OP.

Thanks, but I was stupid. I have this bad habbit of skimming things I read

I'm just not smart enough for this complex question I guess.

The answer is a civic. It's the cheapest and on the wash currently the fastest so it's the "best"

95 subaru legacy wagon L is my answer. i can haul a stack of 4x8 sheets of plywood and still get 26mpg.

Best? Civic?

No... Sorry.

You can run Slicks with some fancy suspension but fail wheel drive will NEVER be optimal.

And before someone says, really my civic hooks at the track with slicks. Look at a rwd car of similar power and weight and tell me the rwd car doesn't have a better 60'. As for the street it probably doesn't hook at anything under 60 slicks or not.

Oh and my vote is any factory boosted car (dsm, termy) or the g body, fox body, or f body.

This is exactly why I said it was too vague. I'm such a queer.

MT, your being overly sensitive.

And I'm being overly dickheadish about being told this concept is so simple and I'm too dumb to understand. No big deal.

do you need a tissue? are you going to be ok? your time of the month?

Street bike?

But I see you added some stipulations but it really doesn't matter. Civic, 240, f-body, cavalier. All can be the ulitmate machine with cash money.

This is true.
But the question was asking which one that you prefered.

Weird because as I read it says which one is the best, nothing about which do you prefer.


Whenever you ask which is the best anything around here, it's going to end badly.
