    Default Early 90's USDM Japanese Muscle Cars

    What is you guys/gals favorite 90's jap muscle car and why?

    We have the:
    Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo/NA
    Toyota Supra Twin Turbo/NA
    Mazda RX7 Twin Turbo/NA (FC and FD Chassis)
    Honda/Acura NSX
    Mitsubishi 3000GT

    I personally enjoy the 300ZX Twin Turbo. Very fun car to drive true, T-Tops (I actually like better than the single targa top Supra) The Supra is nice, but there are too many curves for me, same with the FD RX7

    Neither "Early 90's" nor "Japanese" go with the word muscle car....

    i will take the nsx, hands down, one of the best handling cars and more exotic looking then the other options, granted, could be faster, but the newer ones do a 13.3 1/4 mile, not exactly slow out of the box. Thats my choice. Go get an nsx type r and out handle all of those on a curvy road.

    See... I think that the majority of people think 3000GT's are slow, becuase they aren't even aware that there is a TT model.

    If you would like to line up against my "heavy, slow, pos" I will take you on, anytime.

    I voted for the Z32. Mainly because the design of it is so...unique. In the early years before they loaded it with luxury crap, the car had a fair balance of handling, power, and appeal yet didn't excel in any area. Then again, it didn't really fail in any either.

    To me the Z32 300ZX is a car that, no matter how much time goes by, will always be unique, indentifiable, and damn cool to look at.

    I love the 3000GT VR-4 but the car is pretty heavy. Also with the AWD I was expecting a little more when I test drove one. Still, they are nice cars. I hear that their transmissions are pretty sub-par as well. Any truth to this?

    i would have to say the 300zx nd the supra are both unique and very indentifiable. how can you miss either of those. i think the supra is the best body of a car that toyota ever made. the 6gc is right there with it and why couldnt they be considered muscle cars. they basically are but instead of draining your gas when you floor it the japanese kept there gas in there tank the only difference. the americans went for a bigger engine the better to them and japanese went with smaller engine and lets get all out that we can. so i guess you are right we wont call them muscle cars we will call them non P.O.S.:jerkit: . all the american cars are getting owned by the japanese. sooner or later the amercan car corporations will either make a decision to make a better product or they will be shut down. my oppinion of this of coarse.

    Thats a tough choice. I agree with what peeps said earlier about the 3000GT VR-4. Yes, it was massive, but it moved! I would probably take that first for its rareness.
