I'd rather go to the dentists than buy a Nissan...
That one doesn't look bad, but for the skylines you often see on our roads at the moment...
I did an airfield day last summer at North Weald, and in amongst the 15 or so elises present we had a couple of MR2's, a couple of MX5's, an M Coupe, and a really quite hotted up Skyline. The Skyline was very impressive in terms of sheer, balls out speed. The brakes weren't too bad either, but the cornering was woeful, terrible, shameful, absolute rubbish. On the small circuits we were running, of about a minute a lap, this made the skyline about 5 seconds a lap adrift of even the slowest liz. They do what they do quite well, but for fun in anything other than a straight line, you can keep them ta.
It was either a duff Skyline or a shit driver. Seriously, the old R34 should have stuffed every car you had there. There are some Japanese videos knocking around on the web and you can see the way it corners.
Never seen the attraction tbh.
I'm not a Jap fan, i'm a German licker, but there is something about that GT-R that touches my front bottom, you know?
That new Skyline is teh sex so much nicer looking than the old one. The old one was too in your face.
I would tbh.
Thats really not saying much at all!
I bet its not on the "cool" wall on Top Gear.
Nissan have no imagination at all. Their cars are boring. And shit.
So the GT-R looks like nothing else on the road, goes like stink, costs half the price of any of its performance rivals and Nissan "have no imagination"? WTF? Nissan design over the last few years has been far more imaginative than most of its mainstream rivals; 350Z, Murano, Most of the Infinitis, are all strong.
I agree that the GT-R won't be on the cool wall though, as it's undoubtedly not a car that would impress women who aren't car geeks, which is the main criteria.
Its looks like any other 3rd rate 2 door "sports" car on the road! Explain to me how it differs from "the rest"??
It looks very similar to the Mazda RX8, the Honda S2000, Corvette, Lexus IS-F....
I don't think it would impress most car enthusiasts either.
then you need eye surgery. I can recommend a good one.
