I feal they look more smooth rather than Box'y like the R34.

^^^ thats a Gts will be around 750bhp with his new converstion. dont ask what as i dont know, but its going to be 750+ without the shoot of Nos.
wow. we have very different tastes. To me that car is all that is wrong with skylines and the scene in general... Including the 750bhp + nitrous claim

I do like R33's... But not that one. That's for sure. Sorry

I love standard Midnight Purple R33's

Lee's blue 34 was gorgeous to look at - the only thing I didn't like on it was the rear diffuser! But it was a truly stunning car

R33 should have subtle mods and look more like this

Im with Porkie on this one, ive been fortunate to own a 993 turbo and two 996 turbos and pound for pound (especially with current prices) they are by far one of the best cars you could own , especially the 996 turbo . Awesome car! ;o)

I'm not up on Porsche numbers but if a 996 turbo is what Lee owns right now then there's no way I would want one and would rather have a GTR33 or 34 Skybus anyday.

What happens if the clutch goes though? Not a straightforward job and it's £££.

On face value, and even taking into consideration general servicing costs etc, the 996 Turbo is FANTASTIC value at the moment, but after looking into it myself last year I still think you could get stung for big bucks.

Still interested to see how much longer they continue to depreciate for though because as far as I'm aware, 993 prices have never been as low as what some 996's are slipping into now.

most porsche owners prefer the aircooled over the new water cooled which is why the 993 turbo fetches stupid money and the 996's seem to fall out of bed with prices

i LOVE porsches,,, just shame im too poor that i cant afford to run one
