I like the skyline too. However, those companies in Cali, are they importing from Nissan or from private owners in Japan? When I said "...imported by the company..." I meant Nissan Japan exporting them to the US based companies, but oh well, I don't know.

And no, I can't imagine ricers runnin around in skylines cause I seriously doubt any ricers could afford them stock, let alone aftermarket parts. Of course they're always going to be that rich kid who's parents would buy him one. Then he ruins it buy painting it orange with purple graffics and stickers, adding a giant wing, and tryin to race everyone who lines up at a stoplight with him.

You guys can all rag on me if you want.............

But I'd have to say the 90-91 CRX Si's. They were cheap, reliable, fun to drive and quick for the price.

I know, I know. Before I start getting flamed I know that they aren't fast when compared to TODAY'S cars. But I'm talking about 1990 and 1991. And for the price you just can't argue about the performance you got with a STOCK si.

For the price there was nothing better. Plus it was a two seater!

Plus if they weren't that good why are they still the car of choice for most tuners?

Yeah too many people think of only Japanese cars when you talk about imports.

"What do you think is the best SPORT COMPACT" would have got more of the response the person was looking for.

BTW...I'd take an F50 or an Enzo over a 355, but that's just me. However, a ferrari is a ferrari so who cares which one as long as you got one .
