I came for these replies. I wasn’t disappointed.

Underrated comment.

16

u/ThePapercup Jan 04 '20

How? It (or some other Pantera lyric) is the top comment every time one of these is posted. If anything that would make it an overrated comment, or at best just a comment.

u/neatntidy Jan 04 '20

Relax

u/moistsandwich Jan 04 '20

I hate this response. God forbid someone feel someway about something that you disagree with.

u/ThePapercup Jan 04 '20

Or not? Man if you're just going to post a canned reply you may as well be a bot. spend 3 seconds coming up with a unique thought

u/neatntidy Jan 04 '20

The frustration you feel towards common responses is meaningless and your critique of them provides no valuable information to anyone and does nothing other than making you feel just ever so slightly more knowledgeable than the other random comments you see. You would be better off trying to empty the ocean with a spoon.

u/ThePapercup Jan 04 '20

As is your critique of my comment, yet you decided to post it anyway.

Ever see the movie groundhog day? That's what Reddit is now, somebody reposts the same picture with basically the same title, then all of the Reddit sheep come in and post the exact same comments from the last time and get upvoted to the top all over again. It's like somebody watching a rerun of a TV show and just talking along with all of the actors because they have seen it so many times they have it memorized. It's fucking stupid, and so is anyone who says 'derr it's gunna happen anyway so just go with it'.

Today’s supra and Z has more power than that car did.

u/403paco Jan 04 '20

Ya, but aren’t nearly as good looking.

17

u/hazpat Jan 04 '20

wow new cars make more power?!?!? who woulda thunk?

-10

u/Fariic Jan 04 '20

Almost like I said “today’s”.

The Pantera was the poor mans super car. Literally built for people that couldn’t afford a Ferrari. A ford motor put into the body designed by an Italian living in Argentina, until that motor was build by Australians.

14

u/AdamantiumLaced Jan 04 '20

I don't get your point. No one is saying the pantera was some amazing super car. It was just a cool looking car and still is.

u/Fariic Jan 04 '20

The post I commented on, “vulgar display of power”.

6

u/hazpat Jan 04 '20

almost like today's and new mean the same thing in this context.

comparing performance of brand new cars to a 40-50 yo car is pretty dumb and pointless.

-2

u/Fariic Jan 04 '20

This car was being sold up to 1993. Corvettes in ‘93 got up to 405 HP.

Calling this cars after market tires a “vulgar display of power” was as dumb and pointless as these tires on a car that got 326 hp.

Apparently a wide body kit and pointless tires is all it takes to be car porn, regardless of the car itself, apparently. In my opinion, oversized tires on an incredibly underpowered “super car” is more worthy of r/shittycarmods

How often do you get told to just shut up in you're daily life?

u/OutInLF25 Jan 05 '20

Evidently not enough.

u/Fariic Jan 05 '20

I get it, you’re just a kid.

u/uvokad Jan 05 '20

Sort of like a Z is a poor man’s sport car?

6

u/Lordrandall Jan 04 '20

The Z platform is almost as old.

u/ithcy Jan 04 '20

The Pantera GT5 made 350hp. The 2020 Supra makes 335 and the 2020 Z makes 332.

-3

u/Fariic Jan 04 '20

The 2020 Supra will make 375hp (6 with a turbo) . And the Z will make 350 (nismo). Both cars come in more than a base package.

That Pantera was also a 5.8L v8.

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '20

I don't know for sure but I'm gonna guess the Pantera is a faor bit lighter, also

1

u/Fariic Jan 05 '20

About the same weight. About 200lbs lighter.

1

u/uvokad Jan 06 '20

Your Nissan would be 200 lbs lighter than the Pantera if your girlfriend got out of the passenger seat

2

u/Fariic Jan 06 '20

The Pantera is lighter by about 200lbs you salty child.

1

u/uvokad Jan 06 '20

That’s because they weighed your Z with your 400 lb girlfriend in the seat

3

u/ithcy Jan 04 '20

Do you know something that the Toyota website doesn’t? Because that says 335 hp.

-1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '20

Manufacturers routinely underestimate performance ratings on their advertising

7

u/ithcy Jan 04 '20

Oh, so you’re saying the Pantera made more than 350?

5

u/uvokad Jan 04 '20

Yeah, but since when have you seen someone driving a Z who isn’t a gym bro on steroids?

Power doesn’t equal taste

1

u/Fariic Jan 04 '20

I drive a Z, and I’m most definitely not a gym bro on steroids.

In fact, the original owner was a woman.

u/MathieuDude Jan 04 '20

There's no reason for people to down vote you, they're just generalizing.
