Message	The rx7 is smaller wheel base and a smaller car with an engine that weighs less than a 4 cylinder. The new corvette c6 weighs 3180lbs. The s2000 and 240sx and boxster are not in the same class as the other mentioned vehicles. Those cars btw have 3-4 stars for all ratings depending on which independent crash test and the other heavier cars have 4-5 stars. random sig pic of the day: TAMPA BAY - HOME OF THE STANLEY CUP --.scubasteve.--
