i said R33, because although the M3 is a nice car... the GT-Rs are so much more!

Sorry, I must go with the Ultimate Driving Machine - R33 isnt even the upto date GTR. The M3 is the culmination of everything a car should be.

i would take the R33... just because... i can turn that into something very very special.... don't get me wrong i love the M3.... but if i did the same things to an M3 that i would do to an R33.. i would just feel bad...

So many transcendental reasons. Nothing hard... Interesting.
Okay Skyline folks you can have a GTR or R33 or whatever you want. But M3 folks can have Dinan parts. I wonder what would be a better Gumball car. Comparable mph/mpg, would kill the less-well-rounded Vipers and Ferrarae. -------------------- |

M3's are to die for nice, but they are too plush and comfy in comparison to the R33- and for that reason alone the R33 is so much more of a legend... anybody can drive an M3 on a daily basis and only complain about fuel economy, mabey a lil stiff of a ride... the GT-R is a real driver's machine, hardcore in nearly all aspects... it takes a different kind of person to appreciate what the R33 has to offer, imo...

BMW's are plenty reliable, I can vouch for 3 seperate ones I've been involved with long-term and they had no problems.

No way man. The skyline gets my thumbs up. If you were compare it to an M5 then maybe i would reconsider. In any case, both are under the supra in my ratings.

Still... no talk of 2WD vs. 4WD, weight, torque, suspension...
If Polyphony hadn't dropped the ball on online mode, we could have a massive M3/Skyline race. Oh well, there's always sitting at my desk and making car noises. -------------------- |

Sadly, he doesn't just do it at work.
Does the R33 have launch software? Truely the only way to resolve this issue would be to try it, any takers?
