Nissan skyline.
 
I just took a 2010 nissan skyline in trade and I have to tell you it's on the short list of the baddest cars I've ever driven. Some of the technology in this car blows my mind Anyone looking for a hot sports car should consider one of these animals.

I would have to agree. Exported a few to Germany

They are cool - Nissan has always done some trick stuff (My 1990 Twin Turbo Z had adjustable suspension and 4 wheel steering - pretty neat stuff for 2 decades ago).

My only problem with the Skylines is the stigma - You would be hard pressed to go a mile without some kid pulling up beside you with some PepBoys accessories and his hat on sideways revving his engine at you. Unfortunately not the good kind of attention.

+1........

I haven't seen too many on the street here, either they don't catch my eye or they aren't around in great numbers. The performance numbers are great but the car is ugly to look at (same goes for the hot rod Lexus one too!).

I have to agree with that. But...... This car is not about looks or nostalgia. It's about pulling up next to a ferrari, and blowing it's doors off. No joke. I have have driven some Fun cars. Rides like crap, handles like it's on rails, and literally will make your passenger crap their pants in any gear. holy sh*t on this car. Don't get me started on the launch mode.

Skylines are awesome. Incredible bang for the buck even at ~$90K.

Older generation R32 and R33 are like cigs, just get better with age.
