Lol Eh, my old 5th gen Maxima is fun too, much in the same way, all modded as well. But its still FWD like the GTI is a FWD 4 door. Not too fun for me. And the GTI is turbo for how little power it makes, no thanks. Id take my old Maxima with full loaded interior and real leather.

And, I drove the MT GTI. Are you serious when you said you like that tranny? Its not sporty at all, its made for the average joe who is bordeline horrible at driving MT lol its such an easy clutch to drive it feels like its made for crusing

It's cheerful, I think that's what I like about it. It has a light-hearted feel that makes little jaunts about town a little more fun they would be in, ya know, a Corolla (or similar appliance-like daily driver).

Now the Z takes that to a whole new level! It feels like a brute in comparison (but it's not really fair to compare ...

).
