Re: get rid of the skyline

You're obviously biased. Also, you do not speak for most people, and do not know what most people would like to own. I'm sure YOU would like to own a corvette, but I can think of plenty of other cars I would rather have.

Re: get rid of the skyline

I dont think a photoshoped vette will look good there. Dont get me wrong they are amazing cars, but not photoshoped.
I would rather own a koenigsegg ccs8 than a vette. But it doesn't mean I would want to see that car there.
Put an eclipse there

woh woh woh, Im sorry but i do not want to own a vette. Also I have seen many skylines in my few years in the autmotive scene and have never ever seen a skyline that looked like a toyota camry. Have you seen a real skyline, aside from the photoshopped one in the corner?

i'm sorry i have never acualy seen a real skyline in person(very rare) but all the pictures i've seen of it were not very impressave and i also relised that it looks like a subueru wrx sti

besides a corvette has a uniuqe shape unlike a skyline and is a car that most of us may own in our lives

The photoshopped version of the skyline does look similar to the wrx i agree with that. But go to a high scale import car show this year and i think you will retract your statement about the skyline.

Re: get rid of the skyline

my .02 sense, if he puts in the effort to keep this awesome site running, he can put whatever he wants up there. PS. I also have no desire to ever have a vette

Re: get rid of the skyline

What's it matter what's up there? Most people come here to talk about cars, not look at what's in the top corner. Plus, I think vette's are boring. I find them mundane with nothing exceptional about them.

Re: get rid of the skyline

This thread sucks...
I am a GM guy but I think that guys with Vettes are Fags cause they have a small penis and it is the cheapist sports car they can afford. If you have the dough why not order an S7 that would walk a vette all over the park.

Moral of the story is leave the skyline "that you will never have" alone.

Re: get rid of the skyline

Heh... Sorry but... just because they're popular doesn't mean they're good cars. They don't look amazing... there are lots of powerful and fast cars out there better than the vette.. there's lots of fun cars... if you want a comfortable car, get a benz.. and a Viper is better in every way.

yes the viper and the benz (slk55 amg?) are better than vett in allmost every single way...but the price, a viper costs $80,000 and an SLK 55 AMG costs around $120,000 but if your don't count the pirice then yea they are alot better

but another thing about the skyline and the main reason i don't think it belongs at the top is that no one here will ever own a skyline and the skyline is not as great as some real deal sports cars like the jags benzes some fords, bemers, ferrias and acording to most automotive world one of the (if not the greatest) sports cars ever biult the corvette

wat do u mean, no one will ever own a skyline?!? im pretty sure someone already on here owns one, although im sure that there are also a lot of people that pretend to have a skyline, im positive at least one person has one...
i am a huge fan of all the skylines, and intend to own one once i am through college

as for vettes, there sweet, but the only vette i would ever want would one of the ones that races a sebring (just watch 12 hours of it on saturday, and i must say that the vettes kicked ass), but i would go so far as to name them as the car to represent this forum.

i would suggest, to make everyone on this forum happy, would be to either 1) have nothing be up in the corner, or maybe a wheel (but u would probably argue what kind of wheel
2) have a bunch of cars up there, to represent all the generations of car enthusiasts or...
3) whats actually going to happen is igor will put up there what ever he wants, cuz this is all his...
