I am kinda new to the street racing community and i was wndering as to what the best car is? I encourage you to put one choice for car under 50k, 30k, and then one exotic car.

Also, im hearing alot about "skyline"....please inform me!

Thanks all! :bigthumb:

Well, many import enthusiasts see the skyline as one of the top cars u could get on the market.

however, it isn't the end all racer by any means (no offense razor).

this is gonna come down to another "Import vs Domestic" type battle, so i'll start by saying IT IS ALL YOUR OPINION. one isn't better than the other. yes, in a straight line, V8's an other big motors own. around the twisties for the MOST part, imports will be a bit better there (yes, i kno its not tru for all ex: civic vs z06 etc...)

i think for MY money, i'd get a Z06 as my domestic, an for an import, i'd go w/ the RX-7 TT.

lets hope this stays civil :bigthumb:

to many the skyline is the japanise equivilant to a supercar. It will run you about 40,000-50,000$ for a new one already imported. If you wanna get one imposted its a whole lot of money. They have to test it for drugs and they have to do some changes to its street legal in america. Im not shure what this costs but i know its allot.

There are no real dominint imposts i would say. I know in Japan the most modded car is the nissan silvia, which is basically a faster and beter looking version of a 240sx. Most of the cars i see modded around my house are civics and other hondas. But there not really modded just riced out. Basically everone has there own idea of what import is dominant, and which one is the best, and what mods you should do etc.

I just want to chime in and say that there is no one best or "godly" car. Every car has good and bad qualities. You won't find one that is the God of cars or the best at everything.

The Skyline in a Japanese car that can be imported for a mere $90,000 through a company named Motorex. I don't feel it is worth it. The Skyline is a good car, but there are plenty of cars for the same price thatwill mop the floor with it.

Also keep in mind location, in other words what country you live in. An R32 GTR will only cost you $15,000 USD or less here while a Vette even a 1990 standard one will cost you $25k US and up.

Polygon for the record my little barely modified baby has eaten a number of porsches for lunch and never broke a sweat. Including in that are 911, 930 twin turbos :biggrin:

The skyline is not the "god" of all super cars by any means but for me in the under 30k NZD it will wipe the floor with any other car available in it's price bracket given equal mods from the go.

Under 30k: R32 Skyline GTR
Under 50k: R32 Skyline GTR
exotic: Maclearen F1

You do have a point, I should have specified that I only meant in the U.S. You can get them for a good price elsewhere. They are a good chioce in that case. I just just can't see why I would get on in the states, they just cost too much. If I lived in NZ, you bastard :biggrin:, I would buy me one. Hell I would be happy just to live in NZ.

I'd say get the Evo. Or Z06, modify it in chassis mainly and also engine, and it'd be hella competitive.

Balla, the Viper Venom is a Hennesey, but I would not buy from that person because he is a con artist. :redface:

I don't know who it was made by, I just saw it on www.conceptcarz.com. Hellacious 0-60, supposed to be the fastest accelerating car.

Under 30k, Camiro

What's wrong with the Camaro SS?

For under 30K, the Camaro SS is one of the fastest stock cars you could go for.

On a side note, whats considered a good quarter mile time....because looking at KrNxRaCeR00's sig...his integra can do the quarter mile in 14.8..and that seems pretty bad to me cuz my Nissan Murano is supposed to do it in 15....explain.

FYI im nbot tryin to rip on his car, its just a little confusing....

also consider my car has LIGHT modifications. (i kno..lame excuse, but its tru)...plus my car isn't impressive in the 1/4 mile at all...yet

a "good" 1/4 time is really all based on opinion. to me, unless ur running below 11's, ur not that impressive. yes, i'd respect the new cobras running 12.9's, an i love the s2k, even tho it only hits high 13's. but from a racers standpoint, both are slow at the track. below 11's is where u start to get respect.

A Bugatti Veyeron 16-4 would rape both those cars up the ass. 0-300kph(about 186 mph) in less than 14 seconds. No, it's not a type-o. 16 cylinders, 4 turbos, 7-speed tranny, AWD.....and a projected top speed of 260 mph:eek: I'll take one in each color, please.

Bah! 16-4...thats crap..my moms volvo could take it! its an 86' ....no need for praise..i know im tight! :icon16:
