Good Acceleration. Excellent Appearance. Rarity.

No major squeaks/rattles. Solidly built car.

Def. a car that I'd buy again someday. It does require more maintenace than something like a Honda S2000 or Toyota MR2 (non-turbo) but it can be just as much fun as either.

The car looks great with very  modest customization.

I suggest pearl white with T-Tops and leather interior.

Pros — Styling - Way cooler than the 350.
Cons — Turbo has questionable reliability

All the cars I have had this one was the oldest but best in looks, performance and reliability.  Would buy another tomorrow.

This was just an awesome car to drive, stick your foot down and wait a second for the twin turbo to kick in and hold on.  Best Nissan ever

Pros — performance and fun
Cons — its not made anymore

What an amazing Jap car!!
Nissan made an amazing car that competed with many European sports cars of the day, and at a fraction of the cost!!

WOW is all that I can say apart from when it rains then all I have to say is EEEEEW!!

I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a bit of fun to drive on a Sunday afternoon.

Pros — Good looks, awesome understated-ness
Cons — Roof leaks when wet (dont take out in rain then!!)

Oh man this car is amazing. I bought this after i totaled my VR-4 and couldnt be more happy i did. It has great take off but once its on the move it has amazing acceleration. It has about 89k miles so its always got something going on under the hood but its worth every penny. Car looks amazing specially with the stillen body kit it has. I get so many people who want to race from 16 year olds in civics to 60 year olds in mercedes. You should be putting 93 octane in it so its sorta pricy for gas. It is a blast to take this car for the spin specially on nice days when you can take the tops off. The car sounds amazing!

Pros — AMAZING CAR
Cons — BREAKS ATLEAST ONCE A MONTH =P

Appearance-need new paint job and has a lot of dings. Plus i'm putting new body kit on.
Performance- wana know it's performance race me from a roll or dig
Fun wise it handles grea though I'm putting better springs on in the near future, along with many other things. I love this car and i got it for a great price. it needed a little work which I'm doing my self and by the time i'm done I'm expecting 450rwhp

Pros — just about everything except for the cramped engine bay and poor vision through back window. even with stock suspension it handles great all the way up to 120 mph
Cons — stock stereo is blown, had to change it. has a very long clutch changing it soonwish it was leather but just cloth for now. will redo interior at some point

It looks cracking, its fast, packed with features even though its made in 1991, technologically advanced, and m dad ahd one for a bit!!! Performance was 0-60 in around 5 secs stock, Japansese build, never broken down, lovely seats n styling, considering its a 3.0 twin turbo with intercooler, yh it drinks, not as much as one would think though, and boy was it fun 2 drive :P

Pros — Everything
Cons — Why did they stop making it? Screw regulations man!

Strong motor. 400 hp. and the only problem in over 100k miles was the power steering...not bad for a 17 year old car. sure it only takes premium at almost 5 bucks a gallon, but its worth it when you get to unleash the power and handling. Before you buy one, make sure to test drive and take it to a mechanic, you eaither get a good one or a bad one...expencive cars to maintain

Pros — Fast
Cons — Gas guzzler

Responds extremely well to modifications due to the nature of a twin turbo v6 application. Not so fun to work on. Mine was fairly reliable until I started modding it. Note: if modding it, check double check, triple check everything. Wiring, sensors, etc are very sensitive to movement

make sure a 91+ is purchased since 90's had softer valves in the head.

Pros — RWD, Strong rearend, Strong transmission, strong motor, reliable
Cons — HICAS, heavy, horrible to wrench on, 2 of everything

This car was far ahead of it's time, I am looking to get another one as a third vehicle. It has a timeless look and pretty good performance and handling even in the non-turbo form. Gas mileage and maintenance will come at a price, but remember, you're not buying a vehicle as thrifty as a Camry.

Pros — Looks and technology.
Cons — Repairs will not come cheap.

My first car. I found this in search of a manual, rear-wheel drive V-6 beauty. Quick for what it was, with acceleration at a mild 6.5 seconds for 0-60mph. Motor screams all the way to 7000rpms, along with the passengers. Not awe inspiring in performance, leaving a lot to be desired compared to the Twin Turbo variant, yet it is definitely comparable to other performance cars. Leather interior and power everything (except seats) makes it a very luxurious car as well. Same timeless design that made it to the top of both the top 100 coolest cars, and the top 25 most beautiful car.

Pros — Design
Transmission/Gearing
Sturdy Engine
Comfortable
Handling
Cons — Screams for more Power
