Actually, that honour belongs to Porsche...

Interesting that everyone is clambering to make a family sedan "tourer" to sell well, but the one company that makes real sports cars (and as far as I know, only real sports cars) makes the most money. Smile

As for a couple of points:
-The Skyline has always been a sedan, they didn't just make up a ugly sedan for the current model.

Yeah, but now it's an ugly sedan again, just like the R31. The R32-34 where fairly sexy (not totally my cup of tea, but still nice).

-The Supra isn't totally dead according to current sources, its just dormant while they work out exactly what they want to do with it. *crosses fingers for a sub-1500kg 3UZFE 6-speed in dead sexy body shell*

Why would you want a V8 in a Supra? I would want a nice Inline 6. Perhaps a 3JZ-GTE or something? Sub 1500kg would be nice. I never understood where all the weight in the Supra was. I mean, GT-R has about the same fat, but it has HICAS and AWD to add to the weight. I think they hit the nail on the head wit the JZA80 body. There isn't much they could do to that to make it sexier, 'cept perhaps make the front bar more agressive and the spoler a bit more attractive.

-The RX8 is regarded as one of the best handling cars, sure it's lost some of its urge compared to the last RX7, but it also doesn't try to use 25l/100km and choke you to death with emissions in the process. There is actually room in the back if need be Razz

I saw one at the shops today (for a kids with cancer raffle, got a ticket) and they don't look so bad in real life. I'm not so hot on the engine, but if you could strap a turbo on it that would be nice. Doesn't it redline at something stupid like 9500rpm?

P.S. Saw another Lexus IS200 today. God they are sexy.
