The Nissan Skyline-9th Best Sportscar Of Alltime

[HotPlates]

If the NSX doesn't qualify as a supercar based solely on its power, rather than its design brief and execution, then no Japanese car does as they're all making the same 280ps.

So what's your point? Yes believe it or not, Japan does not, nor ever has built a 'Super Car'.

But as we all know, Jap sports cars are/were built with so much more potential to unleash.

Japan's closest thing to a Super Car was the Nismo Z-tune without a doubt. But it's still not a Super Car, just like the 911 GT3 isn't either.

There are only a handful of cars in the world that truely qualify. Think Porsche Carrera GT, McClaren F1, Enzo, Ford GT40, Bugatti Veyron, Saleen, Pagani Zonda, Koenigsegg CCX etc etc... these are 'true' Super Cars.

Im glad you didnt include the F430 Ferrari. They are nothing more then golf buggies. My little Rb20 GTSt blew past one at Winton during the recent Dutton

I should add the guy was a champion nad his first time ever on the track...so massive props. But, still felt good to gate an F430 around the outside of a slow 2nd gear corner in a lowly GTSt "_

Roy , drop the act. You give your right teste to have that horse...

DOES IT MATTER

DOES ANYTHING REALLY MATTER

What matters is people like us just exchanging our thoughts and opinions of why this and how that......

Lets face it gents.....until we can drive these machines....we can never be able to give a true opinion.

And as for my 10 top cars..I have driven 3...GTR,RX7 S8 and Dodge Viper...

BTW...I believe if you are driving a 11 or even 12 second car daily your doing pretty good..especially if your

set up for some mild track work as well.

Hold on a minute there, can you explain why is it the 911 GT3 not a super car?

-driven by Walter Röhrl himself.

Which is directly related to this

"a capacity of 3.8-litres with two 30.3 millimetre air restrictors. With the mandatory air restrictors, the unit delivers 359kW/485bhp at 8,500rpm. Maximum torque increased to 435Nm. Top engine speed is reached at 9,000rpm."

Nope. My right ball will stay loyally between my legs. They do nothing for me. They sound like wet farts at idle, and not much better then a 4AGE Rola at noise. Plus they are far too pretentious. I would much rather take a 997 GT3, TT V8 Espirit, ZR1 Vette , TVR Sagaris etc etc

Your opinion, may or may not be my opinion.

So..to discuss this in full we would have all had to drive them..lol

Lock the thread..this is going nowhere fast....and I mean real fast

BTW...I need to see proof you drove all of the ten I mentioned

just saying you did means....whats that word I am looking for....ah...nothing...

aw man, youve just lost my respect... :w00t:

the horse breeds some of the best automotive produce in existence... aside from this little spy scandal in F1 they have now...

no, mate i agree...

threads like this only breed ignorance and indifference.

Im IBTL.

i suppose you could say only those who have driven them need apply??

Hey, they may make great cars, one of my all time favs is the F40. Its jsut that some cars suit personalities etc. I aint kidding myself thinking that i would suit a Ferrari. Mk 1 Escrot Panel Van is probably more my hillbilly style

oh dear...sum of the shit that is being said in this thread...

an f430 a 'golf buggy'?? eeermmm, yeh ok... i think 'one of the best supercars/drivers cars' is a better description for the f430.

im sure uve seen this Top Gear review...but maybe u should refresh ur memory...

[m3gtr]

yes, anyone who thinks the 430 is anything less that superb need a swift kick in the goolies ....

[Roy]

Kick me all you want. Something that good looking should never be overtaken a an R32 GTSt. Also, the "Prancing Horse". Fark me, name one manly thing that prances. My queer next door neighbour used to prance around his backyeard wearing his sisters underwear, so sorry i dont lend credence to anything describe as prancing

...and i will add. An opinion is never wrong. Its an opinion, not a statement of fact

[32line]

ther is no opinion needed. the f430 is classed as a supercar. period.

and i cant belive u actually think that a gtst could take an f430 in a race.....hahahahahahahahahahaha, classic.

so ur gtst overtook some guy goin slow around a corner in his f430...hahahah, oh yeh...the gtst is obviously the better performance car, hahahahahahahahaha!

the fact that u are quite clearly homophobic is another issue.

Roy! wake up dude. Without judging the catchphrase and without being skyline biased, the 430 is ferraris modern day, every situation supercar. The 355 and 360 were superb cars and the 430 is better than both of them! I remember this time in 2004 when the national ferrari meet was on in Adelaide and one driver, a dentist, was kind enough to take me out to mallala and onto the track in his 360 F1. I was stunned by the noise, grip levels, stability under accel and braking as well as the way the car sat through the corners and it re defined for me the definition of the way a car should behave.

I have friends with very high performance cars but that experience was exceptional. The horse is bred for those conditions and for you to compare your car to it is kinda an insult mate...

im not sure if youve ever been in one, ive been in a few, 360, 512 and 348 and they set your hair on end...nothing homosexual about it.

cant say the same for your cross dressing neighbour...

i cant agree more, my friend works a JAG, and ive been lucky enought to sit in alot of ferrari and they werent even on and i still creamed in my pants.

the f430 is awsome car, but it doesnt sound that great on idle but once its on song its f**king awsome! my friend has been lucky enough to drive the f430 and he told me its unlike anything he has driven before (he said the DB9 was nothing compare to it)

Ferrari is what dreams are made of! i swap my left and right balls for one lol!

4age on full song sounds f**king awsome! off the drugs roy lol

[Spunky Munky]

Need I ask, which GT-R was it that made the list? I've noticed only the R32 GT-R is known by many as the GT-R.... why, I don't know...
