We have a few infinities here already. The so called gt350/370 skylines (grey imports) are more or less what some of the infinity cars are in the states

The more the better I say - competition is always good for consumers

When the Opel Astra GTC gets here it will no doubt start a pricing war with RS250 and GTI .

I was digging around the Japanese toyota 86 website and was building a car, I love what they did to the website, you can build your own 86 to suit your budget, i did it to get a quote on the Jap price i would spend (i know it's different here, but just curious). As I was going through the list and picking what I wanted in the 86, What on earth is a ETC/DSRC?

The 1.4 is actually not a bad car and very good value.

Certainly leaves any Corolla or Camry for dead.
