2005 Civic EX Coupe 5-spd vs. 1997 Maxima GXE Auto?
Edited on Sun Mar-26-06 10:48 PM by wuushew
Both unmodded and in good running order.

127 horse and 2657 lbs vs. 190 horse and 3000 lbs.



Which would win a 1/4 mile contest or street racing in general? Please help my pride is on the line.

4. female driver who probably doesn't want to beat the crap out of her clutch
My Max gets no respect. Now that I replaced the knock sensor it is pulling even harder at 3000+ rpm.

3. Go with the Maxima.
Honestly, one of my favorites was when a ten year old Civic with a ugly spoiler and loud muffler would try to race my 2003 Saab. Guess what? Loud mufflers and spoilers do not make you go faster than 210 turbo HP.
