Concept Skyline Tuned VS. Concept 350Z RS?

[Katner]

Which do you think is the better car and why?

EDIT:

Which is...

-better for lap times?
-better for drifting?
-better looking?

I prefer the 350Z's more outwardly aggressive looks, as it looks nicely beefed up. If you don't know already the 350Z is by far and away in the top 5 cars for drifting. The skyline is to stable and easy to drive. Speed-wise they are pretty similar, it depends on the setups. Remember the Z is cheaper by 10,000CR

I'd say the Z is alot more fun for laps and with a skilled driver, would probably edge out in front of the Concept (well not any more is it?) skyline - and it's much more satisfying to drive.

The best for drifting would have to be the Skyline because of it's semi-auto 'box means you can change gears mid corner with full drive still at the wheels. THis is why the SL55 and the California are favourites among drifters.

As for looks? well that kit for a REAL skyline looks magic in every way, but the kit in game is less sightly because it has slight overhangs on the skirts (look at the rear quarter in-game view on this site's homepage) that give it more of a Japanese tuner look about it - whereas the real tuned one could almost be classified as having a European look.
Having not seen the real version of the Amuse Z (with that body kit), I'm basing my decision on the in game models and not the real ones. And I going to have to go with the Z - it just looks so great - it's only major flaw is that the guages don't work on the A pillar. Though if it was real v. real, then it might have a different outcome.

K I'm actually going to take you up on that. Although I can't drift worth crap. We'll see what I can come up with. I'll be back with some videos.

It was actually the homepage that made me ponder this discussion. I'm just starting my research for a sports car of my own for this spring (real life) and a used G37 is on my consideration list. Once I hit the GTPlanet homepage I decided if I DO go with the Infiniti I MUST have that kit. Although it's really pricey. I still can't ignore the huge hp/$ advantage of going with like an '04-'05 350Z and adding FI though.

you must have a bit of dough to be in that position. Try an E36 M3. If you want sporty, they're just right. Perfect handling, great engine and suspention and brakes tuned for road and track.
