Guest P'cisT Guests Posted 27/04/04 01:36 PM Share Posted 27/04/04 01:36 PM As much as I love for T, in terms of performace (not practicality), the GTR wins hands down. However, didn't I read somewhere they are over 100k imported? Maybe it was V-spec version...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 21y 4m 12d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 27/04/04 11:52 PM Share Posted 27/04/04 11:52 PM You can get '99 model V-Spec GTR's for arounf $85k and above. They are an AWSOME car, but I do not think I could drive around in something that I am always fearing for my safety in. There are many stories of people being followed home and the getting home invaded and beaten up just for their car. I would only have one as my weekend racecar.

An E36 3.2 M3 is an easy buy for 50k + if you know where to look.I agree with VG thoughIf I had the money I would have to have a Huey/Iriquois or a Jet Ranger helicopter oveer a car anytime.

Actually Plonky I dont agree with your comment about Handling and Performance.I saw a video with a GTR, 350Z, M3, S2000 and Boxter. It was a track in Japan where they had pro drivers do 5 laps, the GTR was the camera car for the first 2 laps. After the first 2 laps, the GTR took off and left the rest for dead, then the 350 came in, then the M3, then the S2000 and finally the Boxter.Judging by that incident, id say the GTR can outperform the majority of cars on the track..but then again, this is only one insident and im sure driver/track conditions will play a large role in the above results.

Whilst we're dreaming of choppers, how about an EC120? Much nicer than the 206.
