R35. Has a bigger presence on the road * is probably more luxurious on the inside compared to the evo.

Hehe.. voted for hte evo cuz I didn't see it.

R35 is just a big fat Datsun.

But I'd still drive one LOL

This is a hard one for me, the R35 and Evo X are both among my favourite cars, I'd probably want the Evo as a daily and the GTR as a weekend warrior.

but then again I'd prefer an Aston Martin to a GTR.. it may not be as fast but they are so nice. or an Audi R8 and those three are all around the same price range anyway :P

Prefer the R34 GTR by a longshot though, just put a VR38DETT in that from an R35 :P

So many nice cars though really.

Evo X, R35, R34, '94 Supra TT < JDM, anyway.

But my tastes go way beyond that - Dodge Viper, Dodge Charger, Ford Mustang, Aston Martin DBS, DB9, DB7, Vanquish, the old V12 Jag's, Audi R8, Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, Maserati MC12, Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, Ford Falcon XB Coupe, XC Cobra, HSV GTS E2, Jag XJ220, Shelby Cobra, Caterham Seven, Lotus Elise, Toyota Aurion ZR6 (the odd one out lol), god, this is a never-ending list hahaha

Indeed, the list goes on forever :P

I wouldn't mind a mk4 supra as a project car to aim for 1000+ horsepower, no money for it though.

Nobody in their right mind would buy that...

A premium price for a car with no racing pedigree or history, and only leased, meaning you have to give it back,

Plus it's still related to a Camry.

i think about the leasing part, they want you to prove that you are actually driving it, rather than putting it at home collecting dust for a two years period before actually selling you the car.

I would have said BMW M3 but since the choices are limited to JDM, I'd get an Evo X. It's just stunning, perhaps a better handler than the fast but big, heavy R35. I'm not sure though if it can be tuned to match the Nissan on a straight line, but with good back space and superb 4WD system, it's an all-around supercar.
