As for the Skyline you posted, what a boy racer special.

How many boy racers have €55,000 to spend on a 2002 car? IMO that car is for people who are into cars. Not boy racers, and not badge specialists.

Best looking Coupé has to be well I can't decide really, but the A5, Mazda RX-8 and Alfa Brera are all very good looking indeed.

All fine looking cars, tho the RX-8 is starting to wear thin unfortunately. I saw it at the UK Motor Show in Birmingham NEC before it was launched and it looked out of this world then. I'd buy the more exotic looking RX-7 in the blink of an eye except for their reputation for eating engines.

@C_Breeze, no doubt you've come out with some anti-Honda and anti-me garbage... you're on my if ignore list, so don't waste your time.;)

I did try to give advice to a guy trying to get a decent straight deal on a new Ford Galaxy.

I actually don't think that someone who is ok with a grand a month in depreciation should be giving advice to anyone!:D

I agree that a Skyline is for people who are into cars. If you think boy racers don't know about cars then I think you're wrong there.

But it, or more specifically the Skyline you showed me, does look like a boy racers car indeed. It was also a Max Power favourite from my memories of reading it when I was younger too.

That Skyline is stock. How many boy racers have €55k to spend on a 6 year old car? That's why it's not a boy racers car.

It's a boy racers wet dream.

it will give the 159 a run for its money (style wise)!

My god agent, you can't be serious, the front of that car looks hideous

So have JHMEG, MarkN, C_Breeze et al, stopped bickering yet?

This seems appropiate btw, I only know it cos it was used against me on another forum....and yes I did deserve it
"DO NOT FLAME
Flaming, in the most common sense definition, is saying something negative in an attempt to get a more negative response. This is completely and totally unacceptable. It will not be tolerated, and in most cases will be punished severely. Never resort to personal insults, never extend a debate beyond the topic on hand needlessly, and try to avoid patronizing language."

This stands out:

I nearly bought it last year. Lovely. Now that's what I call a coupe.

How close did you come to "Nearly" buying it??
Why did you go for the Civic/Integra instead....Such different cars..........

I couldn't justify spending that kind of money.

I didn't. I've owned a Civic VTI for nearly a year. I was considering that Skyline 4 or 5 months ago.
