    Z06, ZR1, Viper ACR, GT500, Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG (a little over $100k). I know Dan is is dying for a Skyline, though. I mean I would take one, bet, but it would be my 7th choice It's a sick car, no doubt!!! I think I am just mad at Nissan for testing on their customers. It's not the cars fault or the owners fault So, I ain't hatin'.

    The zr1, acr, and benz are all way more than 100k, especuially the benz I mean come on, you should be slapped for comparing a 300k car to 75k...

    I looked up the prices before I posted. Maybe they were used and I was just being hasty in my search. Also, some cars SELL for more than MSRP, so are we talking MSRP or market value?

    Edit: are these new or used or what?

    I can't find the 100k Benz now! It was convertible. Not a black edition, though. I was prolly wrong...so shoot me, or just be an asshole who doesn't know how to have a discussion without being a jerk. Either one

    Cool, so I was in the ballpark. Didn't you say under $100k? I was off by a few k. The Benz I was way off I think it was a 2007 that I saw.

    Edit: You said under $75k but then has some 100's in there. I was confused. Either way, $75k or $100k..........whatev. I think once you get up to that price range, you can make the choice of cars you want. It's obvious that someone with $75k has it to spare if they are spending it on a car. $25k is prolly like no big deal at that point, so they could make the choice of a "better" car if they wanted to. We aren't comparing a $20k Honda and a $100k ZR1. Then again, I have chosen to not do my homework on the Skyline because I don't even want them to get the Google hits, so I don't know if it's even a deal for the money you pay.

    well the GTR's MSRP just went up this year form 68 to 75K

    ZR1/ACR Viper>GTR

    LOL at the GTR haters wanting mugen civics and boxters.

    GTR > Z06 ...my reason. You see C6s all day, every day. The GTR snaps necks driving around town! Also, I own a C5 so know the reliability issues with Chevy. It's a pain having to take the vette in every few months to fix annoying little problems.

    I have seen more GTR's than I have Z06's around town and I pay attention for the Z06's (cuz I am a Z06 dick rider). My STI snaps necks all over town, but I still think it's lame as hell Maybe it's just cuz I'm driving it :boobies:

    GT-r's more prevelant than z06's? That's a lie and you know it, you're trying to argue with no point...but just to argue. And your sti doesn't snap anyone elses neck than an 8 yr old boy at the mall who sees it drives by and think it reminds him of his matchbox car.

    Look. I don't know who you think you are, but you need to stop typing to me like that. If you want to take it there we can. Otherwise, we can carry on a nice conversation with different outlooks...which is the way I would prefer it, but trust that I can get just as crunk as you

    NOW, I'm not arguing, I am STATING my opinions and experiences. I have no reason to lie to some jerkface with a complex from the internet. I could understand if you were tying to correct me on specs of the cars,etc.... but my experiences and opinions...come on, dude. You're the one arguing just to argue. When I am wrong, I say I am wrong...just like with the car pricing.

    Who are you to tell me how many necks my STI snaps? I, in fact, hate my STI and it boggles my mind how many people EVERY DAY stop me to ask me what kind of car it is (I haven't been to the mall in at least a year ). I think it's gay as fuck and ricey as shit. I hate the wing and the big ass scoop. To me it's a big ole black turd that I got stuck with because a customer didn't pay his bill. The only almost cool thing in the rims. Either way, the general public is pretty ignorant when it comes to a wing and a scoop, thus the neck snapping capabilities.

    Next, Who are you to tell me how many Z06's or GTR's I have seen and do you honestly think I care enough to lie about it? I never said they were more prevalent, I just said that I PERSONALLY have SEEN more of them and to the point, I pay attention because I love the Z06 (and this could very well be because of the industry I am in.....cars). I mean there were like 6 GTR's at a photo shoot in Atlanta just like 2 weeks ago. I guess, maybe I saw more of Z06 at Petit Lemanz in the Corvette corral, so you are right in that respect.

    Either way, it's fast, like I already said. AND like I already also said, I think I just am mad at Nissan right now for their antics with the whole tranny deal. I also said I wasn't hatin'.

    So you're saying your brand new GTR gets more looks then your C5. Good fuking point. O wait, it's not. And what the fuck is wrong with my Boxster choice? Honestly, I'd rather have a Cayenne too. What's wrong with a 300 hp, mid engine, RIGHT wheel drive, MANUAL, Porsche? And you're wanting to compare the two in reliability? How long have you had each of them?

    Where did I say the C5 gets more looks than the GTR?

    The GTR does get more looks than a Zo6 any day.

    Nothing wrong with wanting a Boxster, but over a GTR? Again, LOL.

    Ok, you're clearly having a hard time to comphrehend. I'm saying the GTR WILL get more looks, no shit. Esp. if you are talking about your C5. The reasons I underlined are the reasons I would take it over the GTR. And yes, I would take it over the heavy, fake manual front engine Nissan GTR

    I agree with you that all the cars are more than 100k but the benz is not 300k unless she was talking about the SL65 AMG Black Series.

    because you got to compare apples to apples. if your gong to a dealership and want to buy a new car and finance it then at 75K the only thing that comes close is a z06, which i would buy over a GTR but some people just dont like V8's and chevy's LOL

    95% people who buy GTR's want a new car and dont just walk in with a bag with 75K in it.

    i think everybody would buy/build something different if they just had 75K laying around
