First...
If you read the previous posts you'd see that nowhere did anyone say that the Z was better than the GT-R (excluding Halo Z who seems to be imagining half of the thread and inventing answers to questions no one asked). They're just two completeley different cars that shouldn't even be compared to each other (like comparing a BMW M3 to a Viper GTS). Second...
Yes the Skyline GT-R is and was Nissan's flagship model in Japan no one is denying that. Third...
The SC300 and the Supra are both Sports/Luxury Coupes based on coupe chasis, therefore using it in you comparison with the Skyline, based on a chasis designed for a 4 door, is completely null and void. Fourth..
The Skyline (GT-R and all other models) is and always will be a NORMAL car. Halo Z seems to have the impression (not unlike all other jr. high school kids) that the Skyline is a miracle mobile, a Japanese Ferrari Enzo, if you will, which it clearly is not. Ex: If Nissan were to sell a Maxima here with a RB26 motor, it would still be just that a Maxima with a RB26 motor, not a Supercar just a regular car with a new engine. If you still fail to grasp the point lets take a real life example: BMW 5 series with a new engine and mods = M5, still a 4 door sedan just slightly faster, not a Supercar. I can't even begin to imagine why you guys would want to classify a Skyline GT-r in the same league as a Lamborghini Countach and a Ferrari F40, these are real Supercars. Lastly..
Don't get me wrong I like the Skyline GT-R as much as the next auto enthuisiast, but the fact remains that it is not a Ferrari, it is not "special", it IS a regular car with an engine that has the "potential" to produce large amounts of power. That is it, theres nothing more to it.. please don't make me explain it agian. (Halo Z I hope you're reading this)
