R34 V Spec or 360 Modena

I am just curious to see how people around the world feel about this subject. I ask people i know about which they would choose but only a fraction of them even have a clue of what a Skyline is. I have studied the car for about 2 years now and i want to see how you all think about this matchup. If someone but a brand new R34 and a brand new 360 in front of you and said you could have one of them for free which would you go home in. Oh and none of that "I would take the ferrari and trade it in for something else" because that defeats the pourpose of the question.

I would choose the Skyline, but this is based more on the fact that modifying a Skyline is much easier. Exclusivity/looks does mean something as well, for example.........If given a choice between a Viper GTS and V-spec I would choose the GTS (has the looks and the modability).

edit: If forced to keep the vehicles stock, I'd take the 360 in a heartbeat.

Without a doubt, The 360 Modena! I think the R34 is the best Japanese car ever, but I wouldn't take anything over a Ferrari! The 360 Modena is the most beutiful car ever (IMO). I don't think these two cars should be compared. They are so extremely different. The 360 is about $100,000 more.

you do have your points, but for me i would choose the skyline. even though you would probably get more looks with the ferrari (and more chicks). but personally i just have a love for the car.

Honestly, I would choose the R34. The 360 Modena is "common" around here. (By common, I mean that I see atleast 1-2 every week or so.) I would like to have something that isn't as common. Plus, I'd be the envy of all of my friends.

Re: R34 V Spec or 360 Modena

id choose the car that is more exotic. if you put those two cars side by side, which one would attract more attention? a five-year old kid knows the name "ferrari". but for the skyline, unfortunatly, only a small handful of people know the abilities of it. so, to get status and respect, id choose the ferrari. if i took a skyline and pulled up next to a ricer in singapore, he would not give a second look at my car. if i challenged him, he would jump at the chance to smoke me. but if i did the same in a ferrari, he would be drooling away..

You just said that the 360 cost 100Gz more? well with that extra 100Gz i would sup up the R34 and with that much $ in the engine, body, suspension, etc... the R34 would own the 360 Modena(just so ya know, the 360 Modena was my first dream car)

considering that i drive my car, and the upkeep and service on a ferrari is through the roof, i'd take the skyline for the simple fact that i can drive it daily.

that is the most lame argument ever used on the internet, and i think that it's completely irrational.

"if you could choose a skyline or a civic hatch, what would you take?"

"i'd take the hatch, b/c with the extra money, you could build it to beat the skyline..."

if you go for the "modability", i'd take neither. porsche gt2 or corvette zo6 any day.
