    Which would you have?

    Ok one of the guys I work with currently drives a manual NA '93 Supra which he wants to trade in for either a manual 6 speed '93 TT Supra or a manual '91 Nissan Skyline R32 GTR. I think that he should get the GTR with its 4wd and racing pedigree it will just be cooler. The Supra is £10000 and the Skyline is £8000. Which would you buy?

    Not really a fan of the R32's styling myself, on looks alone it'd be the supra but as an all round choice its gotta be the GTR, plus they are a far rarer site on uk roads than supra's.

    Supra. It doesn't look about 20 years old, whereas the Skyline does.

    Its funny - the R32 is old, and looks a bit old. But out of all the skylines it is the one i would buy simpolyu because its the lightest and best handling of all the skylines.

    Its kinda like the MK1 golf v the MK5 golf. The mk 5 is quick and new looking, but the Mk1 is a proper golf, from when GTI's were GTI's.

    Get me?

    Actually i lied, if i was going to get a skyline, (which i am not), it wouldnt be a GTR32, this would be what i would get. I cant afford one, and neither can any of you. But we can dream cant we?

    I've always thought that 'the car in front' was wrong anyway. It's always a bloody NIASSAN micra in front of me!

    Naaah old on a minute, the best skyline was easily the R33, Has the better looks and handling and doesn't weigh 3500lbs like the R34 does.
