Skyline a supercar?

BIG 6 Cyl

Enzo, Pagani, Veyron 16-4= supercar

Skyline is a 'sports'car......i dont like it

Over priced and not that fast

careful SL55 your gonna incite a riot dissin the skyline. its not my favorite car, but they have been known to make quite a bit of power. power is somethin i will always like no matter where it comes from. you could attach a V8 to a pile of horse manure and ill drive it!!

SL55 AMG · 06-09-2003, 01:57 AM

no no i give props to the skyline just if it were my money.....atleast to import to the states and that crap much better stuff for same price thats all

No offense to the japanese fans

NSX is the same 80-90 grand for 3.2L 290hp Not worth it for me
just value for your cash here guys never driven either so i cant put them down

IMO!!!

Skylines are sweet, but not worth the money. If they were sold here without the giant markup, it would be different. But $90,000 for a Skyline is money wasted, you could have a very nice Ferrari or a really fast Corvette! Both of which I would rather have.
They are cool, just not worth the money when living in The US.

LOL...a lot of the japanese import fans get defensive whenever you say anything about their cars. maybe compensating for small cubic inches LOL. to be honest i like the best of everything, but like you said the skyline is way too expensive for what it is when its imported.

seems like everyone nowadays wants a skyline....if its gonna cost me the same amount as a 911 turbo, id take the turbo everytime. plus the steering wheel is on the proper side LOL

not that fast,arent u a silly boy.

for the class its in,its top of it.as youve seen these cars can handle power over 1000hp

in the uk the r34 cost 50k,i cant really think of many cars that can hang with it around a track,supposed to have the most advanced awd system.

I also dont believe that the skyline is a "supercar". And just because it can handle over 1000hp doesnt make it a "supercar". If I modified a Honda Civic to 1000hp would that make it a "supercar. Definately not. Skylines are nice and all, but clearly overpriced here in the U.S. and they definately do not get my blood pumping or my vote as a supercar.

in what i wrote,did the two words skyline and supercar go next to eachother,or even did the word supercar enter in what i said, :roll: NO,i said it was top of its class of cars

read next time

Jabba · 06-09-2003, 10:46 AM

hmmm its a tough one....its not quite a supercar like an exotic is such as an F50 or Diablo as I would say a test of a real supercar is that you shouldnt really be able to use it as a daily driver....

I wouldnt consider an F355 or F360 to be a supercar either but an Enzo or Zonda yes.....

The skyline is very special indeed....and its a supercar in its own way and certainely a supercar of its class IMO

$90,000 US Dollars is hardly a budget supercar. They might be in other areas of the world but not here in America.
I also know quite a bit about them, I do like them, it's just that they are not worth the money when bought here. If I lived in the UK or Japan it would be a different story.
