The race was realistic for what it was, but not realistic for what it should have been. A stock Supra turbo would be slightly faster than a 355 spider. But a modded Supra would utterly destroy the 355.

Anyone who thinks it’s a close race hasnt got a clue! A sub 10 sec supra would absolutely destroy the 355! It’s not even a close race!

A BPU Supra would probably kill a Ferrari 355. The actual MKIV running a small single turbo would have killed it, like it did....

2:29 And yet he had a $25,000 Bill Mitchell crate engine, not including the thousands of dollars in Global West suspension parts, the thousands of dollars in the V gate shifted trans and associated parts, and everything else. You'd be on a pretty tight budget to build this car for $50,000 in 2006.

Sorry, I seem to recall Nissan having a "HICAS" steering for rear stability from 1985 through 1985 through 2010 on various more sporty models. I concede may not have been electronically controlled, but tomato, tomato. Happen to be proud owner of a unicorn s13 fastback 5 speed. Just an opinion. Cheers 🍻...

Japanese sports cars of this era were great because the Japanese economy was booming. The momentum continued for a while after the bursting of the bubble economy, but there is no sign of it now. Lost Jewels is an apt description.

Well I guess I'm a little bit. Disappointed in her choice of cars. I mean for all intense in purpose people really should know that Ferrari and Lamborghini our probably the biggest pieces of s*** ever made they give you absolutely. Nothing for your money you get 0 performance when you spend that much money. You should be getting a 1000 plus horse power easily. But they just keep f****** their clients over because they're clients. Are really stupid people with just a lot of money that don't have any idea? How bad they're getting screwed but when you've? Been around for a long time. Like? Yes. Have I got sick of their b******* and the same with Porsche so I? Built a 1400 horse power Nissan GTR which is what I would have thought. Michelle would have bought or even more maybe a 2000 horse power. Street car would be what she fits into and it makes sense because of the movies that she has represented. Maybe show wake up she's a little young yet one of these? Days she's gonna realize how bad she got screwed. But sometimes it's for the image but personally I don't think of an image as being a Ferrari or a Lamborghini.

The 3000GT was a sales success. The VR4 was much lower volume. Nobody in the U.S. cared about the R34 until Gran Tourismo and 2Fast2Furious because they never saw one or knew anybody who had one. Meanwhile your neighbor had a 300ZX. Your teacher had an RX7. Your uncle had a Trans Am or IROCZ. Your friends mom had a Supra, and so on and so forth. I would much rather have any of the cars from my teenage years mentioned above than any Skyline.

The 3000GT wasn't a DSM. The DSM was a plant in Illinois for the Eclipse, Laser, and Talon. Technically the last year of the DSM was 1995 but the 2Gs are all considered DSM due to the model production starting before DSM was defunct. The Sebring is more DSM than the 3S platform.
