R32 GTR vs Nismo 370z

Topher1996 · 09-25-2016, 05:14 PM

Ok, so I'm in the market for a new car, and I'm stuck deciding between these two. I love both of the cars, but don't quite know which is the better sports car. It will be a DD with some track days so if that would be a problem I'd need to know.
Thanks for any info guys.

keep in mind how much of a pain in the *** it will be to get parts for an R32

I know that R32 is tempting with that RB26DETT, but i think the Z is a better choice of DD due to reliability, R32 is kooler than the Z, but not sexier, i would wait for 2025 and get the R34 1999, ride it out in the Z for 8-9 years.

GL OP.

to be fair, the R34 will probably be north of 70k once they are legal

The R32 parts will kill you IF you can get them. From what I have heard they are long wait to get because you have to order them from Japan.

At this point the R32 is a project car. Not because it's bad or anything, but age and consequential cost of resources kinda makes it so. It's a sports car over 20 years old.

Good thoughts on these guys. I had a coworker recently proposition me to buy his R32. Glad to know about parts and of course makes sense logically. He has been trying to sell it for the last year.
