Exactly, I hate it when they slap GT on slow cars; Sunfire GT, Probe GT, Escort GT, new and old Celica GT, even the Tiburon GT isn't that fast.

Of course it's not rocket science that's easy stuff, we're trying to figure out acronyms that don't actually have a meaning like what does EX, DX, HX, LX, Si, and what does the M mean in M Roadster, M3, and M5 or MX-5. Also what does SLT , LT, XLT mean. I do know you can cram a rocket in a 7th Gen. though, lol.

Correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm pretty sure I'm not. But don't the Accent GT's use the same engine as the rs, and gs eclipses? This gives them the possibility to really scoot.

Probe GT's are slow? Sure they're no 911 Carerra GT (*NOTE* VERY fast) but at 164hp/160 torque (at realitively low RPM ranges) and a V6 engine they can keep up with a lot of cars.

BTW don't post a story about beating a probe GT is you have any sort of turbo on your car...I would hope you could beat a Probe with a turbo rolleyes.gif

Don't forget the Mustang GT with it's V8 215/285 hp/torque.

I'm not saying that GT = REALLY F*CKING FAST, but it also does not mean the car is all hype. GT is nothing more than a label, true...and I guess I have just been rambling on about meaningless things...but give me a break it's 2:30AM here and I can't sleep so I go to 6gc...i need help smile.gif


EDIT: ok I re-read darksecret's post and realized he was just saying about how sometimes they label slwo cars "GT"...sorry for the long post attempting to correct him...he's right.

I guess I am just trying to say that there are still fast cars with the "GT" label...O yea, and probe GTs arent as slow as people think they are (or should at least not be classified with the sunfire GT or escort GT)

Nope, they use a 104 hp 1.6 Litre. The old Excel on the other hand had the same engine bay design as the Evo I believe. I use to sell Hyundais and those things are Slow. The Elantra GT uses a CVVT variant of the Mitsubishi 2.0 Litre.
