Skylines - The New Wrx?

[JGTC]

morning all, i'm not one to buy into outside opinions, however i did find it interesting to find this on a non-car forum

taken from OCAU;

Now thesedays every 5th bloody car is a Skyline. While I agree they are nice cars, to me they've now lost that "special flare" they used to have.

Gone are the days of *head turns to gaze at passing Skyline*, and in are the days of *Skyline passes with ethnic and BOV, head stays in same position*.

9 pages of glory here;

My Skyline is 17 years old.

Its not a new anything.

Gotta be a member to read, fark that.

Member of OCAU and just read that.

TLDR:

Why skylines so common, this guy drives a countach, skylines are ugly, skylines are nice, skylines are common, why buy a skyline when you can buy this, next car in place of skyline ft-86, 33's go for $4K, new oil pump costs $900, miss my old car.

Skylines aren't that common. My room mate hates them because he thinks they're so common, yet he drives civics, which I see a shitload more than skylines -.- ...

Z32s are the rare ones.

With an engine in them.

I'll just throw this in the mix...Mistubishi evos are the new import of choice nowadays. All you had to do was to go to the All Stars Picnic that was held this past Saturday to see evidence of this.

The skyline was the new wrx years ago and since then the evo has taken its place

Dubstep is the new smooth jazz.

Discuss.

I thought it would at least depend on the type of Skyline. R33 are the most common, but even then, I still don't see that many around. I drive my 34 as a daily and I really don't see many 34's either....and GTR's?? - Well, even rarer still.

Don't see what the fuss is about anyway, its not like we are bloody commondores. Now that's a car you see literately every second.... Skylines Rock

it all depends on the area you go, in a whole i see more 34's than 33's. Besides, the wrx popularity is going up because it has fallen into the appropriate price bracket.

I live in a mining town, every 2nd car here is a SS V8 commonwhore. There's probably 15 skylines in this town. 2 V35's and i would see more R34's than any other R series skylines. I know there's at least 2 R32 GTR's, damn they are sexy.

[Tai1or Made]
