Nap, Just a few questions if I may...... Which in your opinion was the most reliable car Z32 or Supra, I know this depends on the actual car but which car would you choose to drive around the world ?

How did you find the handling comoared to the Z32 ?

And what about the build quality between the two cars ? Thanks

 

reliable..got to be supra.to run 500bhp for 2years with no probs.

drive round the world would be the 300zx.

the 300zx def on handling.

build quality would be the supra and to work on with out a doubt.

but saying that i am very happy to stick with the 300zx and would not go back to a supra.
