LMFAO ....
after looking at the costs of a skyline im gonna go for a low cost economy hatchback. ha ha ha
a decent suspension set up on any of the cars will give the car good handling
If it was a properly converted 2.0. id go for the corsa, excellent acceleration and good handling too

skyline was only gts type m, i can afford the car no probs, but running and insurance costs are huge.
