GT-R is AWD which is good. And you haven't really sat in a GT-R have u? I've heard alot of good things from people who has compared GT-R handing with NSX (especially R32 with its light body).

As for the "hard to come by...." just drop by MotoREX and that's it

why would motorex import N/A Skylines???

well anyways..

i think the R34 has the nicest interior and the R33 has the nicest body. I think i'd go with an R33 and do an interior conversion to the 34.. it would be awsome.

ya but i have my gs instead

oh and u really think the insurance on an NSX will be less than a supra?

Let me be sure I understand some of your issues:

You are 17; you drive a $40k car; you try to drift it and screw it up; and you consider turbo-ing your GS, but "don't want to rag out a $40k car" who cares?

Now you want a faster car, more than likely in the $40k range, and we all know you'll rag it, but again, who cares? it's not your money

"the insurance is too high" Come again? You are 17, you've already had a couple of wrecks, looking at $40k cars in teh 600-700hp, why the f would you care about a few extra hundred dollars a month for insurance? I mean, you already said you are getting a Viper when you turn 20

Apparently, money is no object, and you "work your *** off", I'm convinced, so just have purchased whatever you want, and throw caution to the wind for insurance, raggin it out, and gas money.

Not overly trying to hate, just putting things in perscpective, and hopefully add a little sense to your decision making process.

Just acquire a new 911, and be done with it.

Unhappy A little off topic.....

My uncle USE to have an NSX, early 90's version, and USE to have two sons. One son drove a early 1980's Audi 80 despite it being 1992. The car was chosen cause it was heavy, not so fast, etc as they lived in Vermont, i.e. very Mountainous. One day this son brought home grades for one of the the quarters of his Senior year. He had gotten all A's so he wanted to take the NSX for spin with his best friend. His dad agreed as long as it was just around the block and back.

An hour passes and his dad is crapping his pants so he turns the news on. He sees an NSX crashed into a tree. Now he was the only one with an NSX in the neighborhood so he knew who was in it. Both the son and the friend died. Turns out the son decided to test the car's engine and handling. He went around a curvy, hilly road at 110+ MPH, hit a rock and went airborne. He landed in the tree.

I am sure you are going to say you are a "great" driver and "blah, blah, blah". Giving a kid a sports car is like giving him/her a loaded weapon. You know you are going to want to test the car out, floor it or what not. Be careful man is all i got to say.....

Anyway, best of luck in finding the right NSX. Just make sure to stick around here!
