ok completely stuck between i rock and a hard place, after seeing everyone at the pod i have put my TT up for sale and going to get either the skyline or cossie. I have already had a saph but people advise, but i really really really cant decide!!



thanks guys

 

If it was a GTR yeah, Skyline wins.

But a GTT aint anythnig that special, so EscCos.

 

remmeber a SKY BUS is a big car.

r32 are a little better in size

 

Depends on what you want to use it for?

Personally i would sooner have the skyline, as i enjoy modifying engines and ford 4wd gearboxes are fragile, but that reason may not apply to you!

 

its just going to be a weekend fun car, would love a r34 gtr but just well out of my budget and i prefer the look of the 34 to the 33 and 32. The powers about the same on gtt and a cossie?

which one will be more fun?

 

Weekend fun car?

Evo 6

 

weekend fun car.........lotus exige

 

Evo tbh

 

What you wanna spend? I'd be looking at an Evo rather than those two to be honest.

Or a Soft top sports car if its just weekend thing.

If you can stretch to 28-30k then an E46 M3 Convert is lovely.

 

Define how you like to have fun at weekends?

If you mean trackdays, then something like an Exige sounds like a better bet.

 

na probably look anywhere between 11-15k tbh, i think thats enough to blow on a weekend car - well for me anyway. Was thinking of going along the super 7 kit car route but decided against that now. so why does everyone think evo 6 over a skyline or a cossie?

 

id go 4 the cossie ova the skyline but thats just my choice

 

chip - not really track days but more meets and just generally enjoying the car, i would drive it everyday but, a. its too expensive b. just gets ruined (happened to my saph) c. wanna keep the mileage down

 

You could pick up an early honda nsx for 15k.

I love these and will hopefully be my next car

 

15k will get you a newer low mileage EVO

 

R34GTTs look shat IMO. Due to not having the wide GTR arches they look too small and narrow.

 

Yep I agree

 

Ahmen to 4x4 ford mt75's my car has chewed 2 of em, evo fq 300 is a better choice apart from the above mentioned choices

C L

 

Also, i meant TALL and narrow.

Either way, shit

Get an Evo

 

For that sort of thing, Porkies suggestion of an E46 beamer is a good one i reckon, although id go for a hardtop personally.

 

so something like this?:

or

R33 GTR.... Great value now. R34's are double the price and NO where near twice as good!

They have potential to cost big money though.

So would think hard about EVO

 

15 grand will get you a seriously good condition Evo/Supra/R33GTR/NSX/RX7/STI straight from Japan.

If you want to retain your money, an Evo VI TME or UK Spec Supra in mint condition would be a good bet.

NSX would certainly be different - you hardly see them about, I've only ever seen 1 at the Nordschleife.

 

They start a Ł20k though Chip...

 

Screw bimmers only cnuts drive em

 

Exige is just not worth the extra over an Elise in my opinion and soft top is much much nicer in the summer in my opinion as well.

Ask Sean.... he would have started with an Elise rather than an Exige if he did it again

 

nah thats Porsches

 

I agree Boxsterman

 

REALLY big cnuts drive the Turbos though

 

did anyone see those evo 6's?? didnt even think about considering one of those but now im thinking about it. thanks for the advice guys so now have got it down to

evo 6
escort cos
r33 gtr

not to sure about supra, i change my mind way to quick for one i think (1 min i want it next i dont then i do, something just doesnt seem right about them)

 

Fair point, hadnt noticed the 15K limit, but limits are there to be blown anyway arent they?

 

i wish, i would love to but have to buy another everyday car as well, also does anyone know of a good company who do sign writing for cars?

 

yep im now thinking about going for the evo over the others.........

 

Go for the NSX - dare to be different!

 

An Evo is simply a better car than an EsCos and can be hussled better than a Skyline

 

dare to be dissapointed more like

 

Just call me "saddlebags" from now then

 

or what about this one then??? http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=44023

had my eye on it for a while

Obviously a totally different type of car from the Evo - I bought an Evo so I could use it every day. If it was purely for the weekend and shows/track then I might have gone for something else. If you buy a VI I'm certain you'll be driving it every day in no time - they are so practical and great to drive, you'll want to use it regardless of the running costs (which apart from petrol are reasonable for your average petrolhead with a set of tools)

 

i agree...get a 5 or a 6...the best looking evos imo
