AE111 - but only if it's a BZ-G / BZ-R :)

AE101's are also good, but just don't have that "tight" look like the later model.

But TE27 levin/trueno has to be one of my favorite

From those options, the mighty Hachiroku has my vote.... but I still love the style of the old TE27 Levin (not aware there was a Trueno in this shape).... mmmm beautiful cars, here was one for sale in Palmy in a car yard for 3k when I still lived there, original orange with the twin carb 2TG in it....

Granted this is a diecast model but you get the idea.... :D

Im not overly keen on the older models - but then again i am biased given that i own a AE111 BZG :)

Theres something about AE101's that annoy me, but i cant put my finger on it... 8O

probably the amount of them on NZ roads? Although AE111's are beginning to be like that now too!! :cry:

Believe it or not i actually chose the AE85/86 option even though i am usually bias towards my AE111 Levin :!:
