Well I see many ferraris around here. But I have never seen a Skyline in Person. I don't think any one owns one here in Arizona, so thats why I would take one instead of many other exotics. Thats just my opinion

The Brits are a little biased against Japanese cars, even more so than Americans it seems. The GT-R is obviously a formidable supercar but if it's too easy to drive then the Top Gear guys don't like it. When they reviewed the NSX they said it was too easy to drive to be a supercar. :dunno:

The Brits think their cars are superior to everyones at least Tiff Needell thinks so. The Mc Laren F1 probably had something to do with that although I never really considered it to be a British car, since it has german performance in it.

I wonder what they will say of the S3 Elise with a :gasp: Toyota engine.

Tiff Needell drove an Ultima Gtr kit car with an ls6 motor in it. He loved it besides the understeering. But with that much power, of course he can just lose traction in the rear by just adding more throttle.
