Comparing the E30 BMW M3 and the Nissan Skyline GT-R

I recently had a chance to compare an original E30 BMW M3 to my Nissan Skyline GT-R. Check out the column over on Jalopnik, or watch the video above!

I’m so annoyed by people who think he bought the GTR just to brag about it… newsflash, he actually bought it to review it (which is the point of the videos) and now he is SELLING it, he didn’t buy it to brag about it.

Well… He can compare the skyline to something similar.. The ford sierra rs500 cosworth.. They WERE in the same era, and legend says, that the GT-R badge and the RB26 were made to compete with the sierra…

Yo, let me take you back to the 80’s when there were no M-cars or AMG Mercedes and ‘every’ car was boring

Oh wait…

The m1 wasn’t that popular, it’s an economic fail i heard not that much m1 were sold

Yeah, but the purpose is very different. The M1 was a purpose-build mid-engine sports car. The E30 M3 was among the first “normal” cars with modifications to its styling, engine, suspension, brakes, etc.

Actually the e30 m3 was a ‘’copy’’ of the 190e 2.3 16v and without the 190 there would not be no m3.. just saying..^^
