I actually thought those early 90's Sentra SE-R's were pretty cool. Very stealth and quick for the era.

Went from a mid 15-second car stock to a best of 14.3 that was terribly terribly traction impeded, on a mail order tune and worn out plug wires that caused a missfire at idle that was later fixed, but never ran at the track again. So, not super impressive in the end but you know, I did it all myself and made the car a hell of a lot better than it was off the dealer lot. I was pretty proud of it and people gave me a lot of props for making it what it was and without spending a lot of $$. And I tell you what, it was mean past 4000 RPMs. With a few things removed I had the weight down to 3150#s sans driver and spare tire so with deep gearing and a rev happy motor, it was fun. But, not so practical, especailly with no back seat, air, heat, the seats, and riding like a log truck.
The GXP is damn near as fast and a hell of a lot more practical!
