I just bought a 2004 NSX and no one knows what it is. It gets looks like crazy and the build quality rivals Lexus. I know the Skyline performance numbers are great, and posts here have talked about the mods you can do to it. But, there are quite a few mods for the NSX as well that can make a monster out of it. As far as styling, there is no question IMO. The NSX looks WAY better. The Skyline styling looks like a modded out Nissan 240SX. It's hard to find a mid-engined, all aluminum, hand-built vehicle with the driveability and reliability of an Accord or Camry that can blow almost anything on the road away. They're coming out with a new NSX in '06, which should be a real bad a$$. I'm biased because I have a brand new one in the garage, but I would go with the NSX hands down. You won't be sorry.

I heard that they are bringing the Skyline GTR over here in 2007. I would pick the nsx because I'm just in love with the car. Its sleek, hand built, reliable and downright gorgeous.
