No im not the brightest that's why you responded like a wound up toy. I own a subie fyi but the car i like the most happens to be a NSX, not everyones own the car they really want. anyway, moving on

FD3 RX7 for me. It's got everything you want for a sports car, looks fantastic, handles great and has the power to match

best to go to an impartial fanatic site, like pistonheads, having said that you'll probably find as many people indifferent to the scoob on here as you will on there.

just had the one ,but for a cheap trackday toy they are great you could say the best for the price

also if you ignore the fact they have chocolate gearboxes

a sensible choice though would be the NSX-R

I don't think the new shape Skylines are anything too special, just an oversized 350Z really. The new GTR however is an awesome machine and would probably be top of my list if I could afford one. If we're talking easily affordable cars with lots of tuning potential then I would want an R32/33 GTR, a MKIV Supra RZ/GZ/UK TT, or an FD3S RX7. I was looking at RX7's before I bought my Impreza, but found them too small for me and my knees were in the dashboard. Decent Supras and R33GTRs were not within my budget back then either.
