I could care less if they are fast or not. The only reason I would drive a Skyline, that is if I could afford it. Is for the name. Just drive it down the block and more than likely you'll get laid.

You really think so? Skylines basically look like 4-door family cars - the only people that give them second glances are wannabee kids.

there are more skylines at the nürburgring than FDs or supras, mostly from great britain.

they start to become toys for the potential M3-customer-attention-*****-burgerking-parking-lot-poser.

nice but overrated as hell

I cant belive the prices you guys are talking about here, over here (New Zealand) there are hundreds of them floating around. you could probably get a r32 for under $8k NZ

I think people took me seriously on "AWWW SNAP! No he didn't!" (Wasn't meant to be taken seriously.) I wouldn't want to own a Skyline or Supra and I don't really like either one. Why? Because they have ******* pistons.

Thats a pretty bad reason not to like a car. I think the answer you were lookin for was because both are heavy pigs.

Nah, if it ain't a rotor, it ain't a motor. Nothing's going to tear me away from a rotary. Especially since we've got the 4 seater RX-8 which can count as a family vehicle when the time comes. It's got the car seat fasten points and everything. Pistons are Pisstons to me.
