ESi vs Super Touring

[isa1023]

I'm caught between going back to an ESi or finally joining my family's Sentra clan by getting my next favorite car on paper - the B14 Super Touring (I'll miss out the MS 323 Familia on this).

* * * * *

ESI:
No plans to go D15B again
No more VTEC
Rust/aircon/cooling system issues
So what' with the double wishbone?
I know its hidden quirks, having owned one
Sluggish low end torque, no I can't imagine it without VTEC


Super Touring:
I can't determine a real one
(the one I saw didn't have body skirts but has a Touring emblem)
GTS set-up?
Boring dashboard
Looks goos on 17s even without the GTS kit
No need to change timing belt
Does it have VVT?
No sir, no plans for an SR20DE swap!

Any opinions?

Which is a better buy between the ESi and Super Touring at 150k budget?

Please don't elaborate much on the ESi's specs (I used to have one).

However, I need a comparo against the Super Touring.

Is the GA16DNE a gaz guzzler?

Is it still worth buying?

Thanks.
