Skyline for me. Such an amazing car and they sound sick. Would love to own one one day.

Supra because it's legal where I live. And obviously much more affordable than an r34.

Skyline because like other people said, they look nice, they are legendary JDM cars and you will turn heads everywhere you drive.
Only Downside to this is that they are illegal in the U.S. to drive. So in order to make it legal to drive, you need to convert the steering and gas to the left side of the car because they are built on the right side since they were sold in Japan and England where they drive with the steering on the right.
To do this, it will costs lots of money and you need to find a company that makes the dash and steering column that can go to the other side.
Next, you need to replace the exhaust system, or catylitic converter, with a cat that is cleaner and fits U.S. standards. This will make the car lose power.
So you will probably be spending around $10,000-$15,000 just to bring it into the u.s., then another $80,000 to modify the car to fit u.s. standards. Also not noted is the cost to modify the chassis on the vehicle which would add another dent in your bank account.
so maybe i would just go with a supra to save around 70% of that money (Supra is more cheaper but the skyline is alot better.)

Hemi wrote Skyline because like other people said, they look nice, they are legendary JDM cars and they come already equipped with 1000HP (R34 version only) (correct me if im wrong).
Uh, no. Stock bhp on an r34 is in the 275-330 range.

Really? wow was i way off. People have told me that R32's and R33's came with an engine of around 350HP and that R34's were built for performance and that they had 1000HP already equipped. Il search that up and edit my post if im wrong.

If they had 1000hp already equipped? There would be alot of accidents considering it would be insane for that much hp on a street or in traffic.
