Hi Dan, it's not the thread that's dumb, it's just the way it has spiralled into an English lesson.
In the vernacular, fastest and quickest have essentially the same meaning. Splitting hairs really. Both GT-F and GTS are great cars, as this is a Ford forum of course we're going to be a bit more passionate towards the GT-F but we should realise the GTS has a depth of engineering that we would have loved to have seen in an FPV.

The actual difference between quickest and fastest was bought up between me and another guy just laughing that hey, yeah, actually by the hard cold facts....the Fastest car isn't the GTS. It's the 297kph GTF. No one was preaching it as fact......until the ussual childish Holden fanboys started throwing accusations.(go back and look) The last few pages of this thread reflects a few things.....how poor our education system is.......how many Holden fans run riot on the Australian ford forums where diehard ford fans can't even enjoy themselves without being abused by children........and how easily it is for Aus media to brainwash People at a basic level. So is this the "longest" thread.....or is the the most "interminable" thread? |

The only thing all the pages of this thread and the many others like it reflects, is that some people have open minds and some don’t.

As for people bagging the GTF, I dont think anyone has bagged the GTF just stated the hard cold facts....the GTS is the "fastest" accelerating car, just like the article points out. Do yourself a favour, next time you see a thread about HSV just ignore it. You come in here and try to discredit HSV, holden etc in any way possible, then get upset when people correct you or disagree with you.

True cause the thread definetly isn't referring to an FPV. Because there aren't no more of those

Do you honestly believe that every member of Ford Forums is supposed to be one eyed like you? Can people not share their opinion without fear of conflicting with yours. Weve heard your opinion, you prefer the GTF, we dont need to hear it page after page, its pathetic. If you dont rate the GTS, say what you feel and move on.

There is really no need to Insult other members on this forum. NOT cool. From time to time most of us are not going to see eye to eye on many topics and debates, but it doesn't not give someone the right to call them out. As frustrating as you may feel, its best to lead by example.

Yes calling people ignorant and dummies is insulting / disrespectful, no need for it.

As is the way with a lot of threads, this one has gone from Fastest car to Fastest inane argument.
Closed.
