sa M5 ako hehe.
i'd only go for the Skyline GT-R if it's going to be as a second car. for one thing, it's right-hand-drive only hehehe

June 23rd, 2005 09:22 PM #6The two are completely opposite. Its like picking between a tuxedo and a sports wear. The BMW, although with 500hp from an F1 derived V10, is a luxury car. Its got a lot of ammenities such as navigation, heated seats, distronic, air bags everywhere and all the creature comforts. And it seats 4 adults comfortably and possibly 5. On the other hand, the R34 is a "rice rocket". AWD, light-weight and stripped down racer which only seats 2 adults comfortably with room for only 2 small kids in the back . The R34 would definitely eat up the M5 on a track (not by much) but you would'nt want to carry 4-5 adults on a long 4-5 hour drive in an R34. I guess it boils down to ones personality and purpose for the car. For the track, I would pick the Nissan and to cruise around town and occationally race from light to light, Id pick the M5. Though I'm not too crazy about the new bangle design. I'll be seeing one in our parking lot soon (I've got a friend who is first in line at the dealership to get one) and maybe I'll reserve my final desicion when I see one up close and drive one

M5. No Japanese car is worth as much as a BMW M5. In the same token no Korean car is worth paying more than or the same as a Japanese equivalent.

IIRC they're with AVID. The reported numbers in the TG article are from CAMPI.
