I don't care what you say, I just don't play the tuner game. And besides, considering that most cars are supposed to be driven from A to B, I'd rather go in style. And besides, I think no matter what you do to it, while Skylines are cool, they will never match Italian Stallions...
Haha, you make me laugh.

Actually, you sound a lot like that TS-X guy who was here a while ago.
In other words, you're completely and utterly wrong. A modified Skyline can absolutely kill a 430.
Anywhere, anytime.

Yes, but I'm not talking performance unlike TS-X, but rather looks.

I still stand by my word though, I don't play the tuner game. Unless of course you happen to get on the subject of my R31.... I may have expensive taste, but hey, who says I can't dream?

Do you know how badly you contradicted yourself? :?

And, who says 430s looks better than Skylines? I think they look just as good as each other. They just have different styles...

BUT, I like the F430 Scuderia, and that doesn't mean I think it's faster.

No I don't actually, enlighten me.

In terms of style, my opinion stands that F430>R34>360.

And yes, I would rather have a Skyline than a 360. They do look cooler.

Are you dense?

You state that you "don't play the tuner game", and in the same sentence you talk about modifying your R31 (which, to be honest, is not exactly brimming with performance potential).

That's the only car I can afford, and the only modifications I plan to make are some wheels.

Like I said, I have expensive taste, but expensive doesn't cut it in the real world does it? If it's a tuner I have to make do with, then I will. Otherwise, I'm not particularly fond of tuners compared to exotics.

:-s

Certainly you can find a less expensive car than a Skyline.

I'm only paying AU$1000... that's not dear, and anything less will be a piece of crap with at least two or three things wrong mechanically.

Yeah, skylines are good affordable performance cars. A hardcore one is usually a track car. Not many people have the money to fully mod an exotic.

If I want a track car, I would buy a Lotus Exige. Affordable (for a track car), but still quick and lightweight and nimble.

It seems that FF4 will be the true and much needed sequal to the original FF. :roll: =D>

yep, I saw that article a while back.

Anyway, $1000 is good!

I actually like Tuners quite a bit, but for pure grace, you can't go past a 599...

Meh, has anyone read the most recent Motor magazine article on Godzilla (aka skyline)?

What the hell . . . it has Vin Diesel AND Paul Walker?

They were starting to do alright when they got rid of those guys, and now they bring them both back #-o
Lucas Black was badass.

Aw no... I was actually excited... the original cast, a great story line, all the BEST characters (From 1, 2, AND 3,) and what I though was going to be Brian's R34... I can't firetruck believe they put him in an R35!!! WTF? :evil: First off, this is meant to be BEFORE 2F2F, therefor it only makes sense for him to be in the R34, since the R35 A) looks like utter shiz and B) came AFTER the R34 (obviously...)

That one freakin' car just ruined the whole movie for me. -_-*

your wrong FnF4 is set between 2F2F and Tokyo Drift. Lil Wayne is in negotiation about getting in on the movie
