I dislilke the skyline, I think its an overhyped, heavy, childs car.
Its a PS2 on wheels, no skill driving it.

An old style car, or an elise. A true car for the spirit of driving. But thats me, i think the idea of "grass is always greener" is kinda what playts with the skyline.

Yeah you'll see a lot of skylines around here too. RBMotoring is about 15 minutes away from my house and they import skylines here. It's still sweet to see one though cuase they are hot smile.gif.

Skylines are nice, but Soarers are nicer.

On the interstate last weekend, Nate, Jack, and myself saw a 2nd gen Toyota Soarer GT Twin-Turbo (1991-1995 w/ 1JZ-GTE 2.5L Twin Turbo engine). This body style:

So yeah, right hand drive, looked fully modified, altered suspension, very loud hi-power type exhaust. An older American couple driving it, which was the oddity. Anyway, it was sex. Pure sex.

A 1997 r33 gt-s through work, and yourself? I didnt get to drive, but I rode in the white Apex-i r34 one here in so-cal a long time ago it was an interesting ride. felt heavy and after the tires begin to give and brakes fade going downhill it just kinda creeped me out (but then agian I wasnt driving and most passengers feel the same).

The electronics and everything else inside the r-34 make me feel the same way as I do about the evo and the STI. Computer controlled cars, cars they adjust themselves when a driver makes a mistake. Doesnt help someone learn to drive, it compensates for them being retards. (not calling owners of said cars retards) All because its not sold here, doesnt make it a god car. Thats why I never understood whye everyone freaks out about the supra as well. And im sure someone will post IT CAN MAKE 1000hP OMG. So can a vette but they arnt widley obsessed over. A car is a car, its how you enjoy it is the point.

The PS2 comment was taken from top gear, and I couldnt think of a better way to put it.

Gs300 + mr2 for the win.

hehehe...i gotta ride in my buddys R32 GTR he got imported last month on the weekend. R32 with the nismo body kit, Vielside Andrew Racing wheels, and an RB26 out of an R34 with a Blitz ECU...mmmm..soo fast. Only thing is, its like pinky purple, kinda ugly colour, but you can definatly see it comin up on you.

I hope you don't mean that stock midnight purple color... cause I love that color biggrin.gif


Noo, its more pink with a purple tinge...like think of just Pink then add a dash of purple for a transition. Its a werid colour...like a not fully ripened red grape. still hot though.

To add to the post, I've seen a midnight purple R32 around NYC, once in the bronx where like 8 squad cars literally boxed it in while parked and another time while it was heading towards the FDR. I was surprised to see it here on the street out of other places it could show up.

That car is sex..

Its hard enough to find good Ol' Schools.

Especially straight Cressidas and MKII supras for cheap.
