for me, i still prefer the gti galant.....love it stil up till now, but lynx rs rivals it in my preference e....galant VR(ung sinundan ng gti) ok din, pero ung v6 guzler lang ng konti, pero, iba parin performance ng gti...and for me,ha, in stock form, mas guwapo ung gti....inis nga ko kay daddy kung bakit ung maxima kinuha nya...pero ok din naman maxima,e...but i really like the gti galant, lalo na ung mga bibihirang VR-4 versions na imported...

ung cefiro a31(ba un) RWD, 2.4L...ok din..alam ko rb24 inline-6 makina nito..

altima, medyo di ko type lang is ung body...pero once matagal mong tinitigan, gumaganda din...sr20de ata makina nun..

corona, well, ok din, pero ok din..3s-fe 2.0 makina,e..

ung accord, well, same as corona, ok lang din...early models ata di pa VTEC..alam ko 2.0 and 2.2 makina nito...forgot the engine model, though..

my vote goes to the Galant Gti. after a decade and ownership of 5 cars that vehicle is still my dream car. elusive kasi the fresher models...but they're really good looking and have reasonably sturdy engines. one GTi chased me from the nlex edsa tollgate to san simon last year, and we switched lead posits several times. i was inside a 2.0 CRV. those GTis can still haul ass.

second is the corona...boring to drive but looks sportier than any other toyota i know of.

altima looks a bit dated na...those teardrop shapes are an acquired taste. dunno bout the engine, but if it's anything like the boring engines inside 93 sentras, well..

accord and camry look too wide...like yachts. they're more for leisure cruising IMO.

Sakin I'd pick the GTi as well, followed by the VR, then my Alty (love driving this thing hehe)... I find the Accord really slow though, although the shape is very well designed.

I like the Euro-look of the Corona but the interior is a bit too square and plain...

Performance, I've only driven the GTi and Alty na long term...

Uh-uh... non federalised 626... that's 130hp. And don't forget the Vectra.

8g galant vr has 165hp.
7g galant vr has 163hp.
cefiro97 v6 has 155-165hp.
a31 cefiro I-6 has 150hp.
6g galant gti has 145hp.
altima 2L has 145hp.
accord 2.2L has 145hp.
camry 2.2L has 129hp.
corona 2L has 127hp.
accord 2L has 126hp.
626 2L has 130hp.
Opel Vectra 2L has 136hp.

The Mazda 626 is relatively sharp down low, good torque, but not as good as the Galant or the Altima. It's got a stiff set-up, but stock wheels are on the small and slippery side, and there's not enough suspension travel to give it good handling.

Have not driven the Altima, but I have had the SR20... wonderful, wonderful engine, high redline, good power curve.

Accords of this era... meh.

I'd say the most thrilling would probably be the Galant GTi... quickest, too... unless the Galant V6s came in here with MT. The Cefiro V6s did have MT, but those are heavy bodies.

I'd take the Galant VR then the Galant GTi.

But, I rather have 2 (USDM) not on the list: Nissan Sentra SE-R (140hp and) or the old turbo-4 Ford Probe GT (145 hp and sister of Mazda MX-6). The Probe GT specially with 190 lb-ft torque.
