Skyline anyday. The new NSX's look too dam feminine. But even compared to the old NSX's, I'd go Skyline. Ist gen NSX would be #2.

nothing wrong with MR, I would just prefer the Atessa. I mean, there must be a reason it is outlawed in a bunch of the Japanese race series....however, MR will give your rear tires much more traction through a corner, and if you set the car up right like a F1 car, you can corner like a bat out of hell...but if the car is not set up for cornering like that, once you start to break traction, it can be very hard to recover, unlike the Atessa system, which would be much better for race use unless you are a sponsored pro race team, or have way too much money to build the suspension in your car

Considering the NSX isn't in it's class...it's like comparing apples and oranges. Dollar for dollar, the GTR wins hands down.

Two VERY different cars. If it came down to it, and money wasn't an issue, it would really have to depend on what you like more. You really couldn't get me to decide...

why isn't an NSX in the same class as a GTR? You could throw a Supra in the mix, but I'd still stick with the NSX...

That's tough. I don't think I could pick just one. Both cars are awesome.

The base price of an NSX vs the base price of a GTR isn't the same, as far as money is concerened. You're getting way more out of your money by buying a GTR. The NSX isn't a bad car by any means, but for the price tag of near 100k it leaves a lot to be desired...

I think the NSX is one of those novelty cars...

One of the few Acuras that depreciate in value VERY fast.

you're asking a nissan forum if they would pick a honda over a nissan? What do you think everyone will say.

The base price of the two don't have to be the same.. they compete with each other in many races including jgtc.
