    all of that is fine and dandy but its not an ultimate driving machine.
    i need luxury, handling, and then speed...too much bumps and lights on the roads.
    ill take an M5!

    Luxury and fast wow.. M5.. The guy down the street got rid of his 525i BMW and bought a black M5.

    Here is what I did. I purchased a Lexus IS300 swapped in a 2JZGTE Aristo Motor. For now its stock but working on the body. However, you can mod the living shit out of it and muck up an M5 anyday. Guys with IS300 2JZ swaps are running 600-1100 as daily drivers in the States. I live in T Dot but for you its cheaper and much better.

    both inline 6's, twin turbo. but the gt-r's advantage is not in its engine, but the transmission and the all wheel drive.

    Skyline all the way.

    I'm a nissan fan but I gotta say the 2jz could take more of beating than the rb

    They are both very good cars. The OP listed the STOCK stats on both cars but as a true enthusiast would know, you can't go by what someone listed on a paper. The skyline was restricted to 276hp due to a gentleman agreement most Japanese car manufacturers participated in the 90's. With a retune to the stock skyline gt-r ecu, it will achieve 300+hp. I'm a nissan fan all day and would definitely pick a gt-r over a supra for multiple reasons but I wouldn't mind owning both.

    Personally from owning a 93 supra tt, there is so much potential with the 2jz engine that the rb just can't match without lots of mods. I've seen lots of supras over 1000hp on stock bottom end. If your looking for a track car, gtr all the way. If your looking for a hwy monster, or a car that is easy to squeeze power out of, go with the supra
