Here are a few pictures taken in january with the Skyline, my lotus and my friends Evo...enjoy! and its nice to have another member here with both an RX8 and a GTR!
Nice M-Spec, yes the car is the Millenium Jade Metallic and I do have A/C since it was standard on all V-spec's.

Yup Yup sorry what i meant was the car that i was looking at in Japan was a VSpec II NUr but was previusly owned by Onix Japan who had removed the A/C unit and modded the car...u know how on 'paper' our cars are rated at 286 bhp but in true fact its close to 332 bhp on dyno...well this Vspec II Nur was dynod at 438 at the crank...so ya decided on the Mspec instead...and i agree about the investment part...recently i had an offer for the car by an individual who was willing to pay 200% more than what i originally paid thanks to the low mileage and stock nature of the car! But im keeping my baby for a long long long time...

Yeah this one came from a shop in Japan and was loaded with some HKS bolt-ons and tuned by Mine's. Back in 2004 I drove a 2000 V-spec in the states that was 400 hp and that car has nothing on this Nur.

--edit: dont get me wrong, the white and the metallic ones posted in this thread are sick.. im just a big fan of blue. hence my WB 8 and R6 yamaha :P

and of course the 32 is a bit cheaper

LoL...Yup the Lotus is an amazing car in itself...it really brings back the true pleasure of driving...RWD, No Powersteering, basic amenities and incredible driving position..i reccommend a lotus to anyone that just likes to drive drive and drive! :D ...on the note to having these cars in Sri Lanka it has its advantages and disadvantages...the roads arnt as good and good stretches are hard to find and short plus ur always scared of something happening to the cars hence my STi is the best in those conditions as i drive it without a care in the world...on the good size if u get stopped by the cops for speeding or any infraction u dont lose points off ur license, u dont raise ur insurance premium and the best of all is that $10 will get u out of trouble :P

P.S - check my youtube out i just posted long videos of the Skyline, Lotus and Evo on a fast drive for all of u that want to know what Sri Lanka is like!
