3000gt vr4 or 300zx tt

[Skyline_R32_Canada]

both great cars, which would u choose....

the vr4 definately costs more, with about 0.3 faster in the 1/4 mile

Gee - I wonder which I'd pick


Seriously though, the 94-99 VR4 models are quicker then the 91-93 out of the box. I'd take either generation over the 300, but both are great cars.

Give me my fat, fast, gadget filled, AWD road ripping VR4 anyday Its a grand tourer with the heart and performance of a sports car.

I'd take the 300ZX TT any day. It may not be as fast out of the box, but it looks much better, it's a couple hundred pounds lighter, and it's got better reliability (in other words, it doesn't share platforms with a Dodge).

i would really love to have either car but i think i'd probably go with the VR4. if the VR4 weren't AWD it'd be a real head-scratcher, but i think that's the way i'd go.

Another myth about the VR4 is the reliablity. My VR4s have been the most reliable cars I've owned (includes Honda Accord, Nissan Sentra, Dodge Shadow, DMC-12) Almost all cars are as good as the care they are given.

I guess so, maybe I just see a lot of 3000GTs that aren't taken care of. Even so, I would think it'd be easier to take care of the 300ZX than the 3000GT...the 300ZX just seems so much simpler and cleaner. I guess that's why I like it.

I'd pick the VR-4, it's wicked fast and looks better, I'd compare the looks of the Mitsu to a Ferrari and the nissan to a Lambo, and I like Ferrari better.

[youngvr4]

thats a good way of looking at it

Interesting, when I was trading in my base 3000GT for a Twin Turbo, I had the choice of a 1994 3000GT VR4 with 56K miles on it or a 1990 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo with 30K Miles on it. Drove both, liked both a lot, bought the VR4. So that's my choice.

eh, Z32s or 300ZX of the 90s reigned from 90-96, N/A had 222 HP and the TT had 300 HP at the crank. So what are you trying to get at "91-93" out of the box? They were all equally the same exact power depending on respective models. And speaking road ripping aerodynamics and drag coefficiency, the ZX had lower center of gravity than VR4, not sure wider or not, but difference in shorter height is an imposing factor on handling.

the damn 3000GT reminds me of those pre-2000 big butt Eclipses. lol. I see more girls driving them here than guys. But this is ironic, because the new Eclipse resembles the 3000GT. It seems Mitsubishi loves to recycle its designs.

[GTO4Life]

3000GT any day...

3000gtVR4 or 300zx? of course the VR4. its faster in the 1/4, better looks imo and of course what is there not to love about awd. yes its heavier than the 300zx,but the vr4 is also faster. only thing there is to envy from the 300zx is the aftermarket support.
