That alpha is pretty cool, I dont normally like alphas but that one is classy

browny those are boys cars. and besides the chances of a dodgey import are too high. i dont mind the sylvia but i find the back end too low. all wrx's are ugly. how is an r34 luxurious? skylines= ricer cars :P

Up to the R35, Skyline interiors are about on par with a Pulsar. Definitely not luxury!


But in a car like the GT-R, thats not a bad thing.

Check out the new Nissan 350Z. Its real great value for money that encompasses performance, price, looks and luxury. And there's a convertable version....

What do you think of the convertible versus the hard-top? In my eye the convertible looks very much like it's channelling 1930's cars (a good thing), while I find the hard top very similar to the Audi TT.

my friend totalled a 350z! he drove INTO a shell petrol station. well the sign anyway lol.. though i wouldnt call it value for money and the suspension is bone-jarringly tight! the new audi tt though, thats jsut beautiful!

Stylistically, the 350Z convertible doesn't do it for me. It's a lot less purposeful than the 350Z hard top, which has a great presence. The convertible is definitely built for cruising (huge stereo, heated seats so you don't get cold with the top down) but the performance is a lot softer than the hard top; heavier, cruiser gearbox ratio, and the absence of the optional 'track pack' Brembo's like in stereofly's avatar. The S2000 is a much better performance roadster, but hey, at least the 350Z convertible has a clock.

As for channeling the 1930's, I think the Lexus SC430 should come standard with top hat and driving gloves.



Or what about Mercedes Benz's 'Ocean Drive' concept?





Automotive haberdashery.

Compared to an S2000?

yes!

Wow! Comparing the two convertibles, the 350Z is much more well mannered than the S2000.
