My friends and I were discussing decades and cars. I argued that Japan offered the best market during the 90’s with cars like the NSX, mkIV Supra, Skyline, Silvia, S2000, civic and integra type-r, Fairlady Z, MR2, Evo, Impreza, 3000GT, Eclipse, MX5, Century, Crown, LS400… the list goes on and I apologize if I missed your favorite.

I can’t really think of another market that offered such a list. My friends argued that European market was better with the 911, M series bmws, and RS Audi’s but I just don’t think the value and quality are there comparatively

    As in what region produced the best cars in the 90s? If so how can you possibly think Japan had the best cars? You just listed a bunch of affordable sports/luxury cars. They were good because of their performance for price. They’re nowhere near the pinnacle of automotive engineering. Pretty muc the only car on that JDM list with any accolades in motorsports was the GTR. How the fuck is a LS400 and a Toyota Crown on the list? Toyota/Lexus was trying to make cheaper alternatives to the undisputed champion of that segment, the S class. If your talking luxury, Rolls Royce and Bentley exists.

    The Porsche 959 was produced in the 90s. The Ferrari F50 was produced in the 90s. The motherfucking McLaren F1 was produced in the 90s. You gonna list a fucking Mitsubishi and Miata, then dismiss the 911? The 993 GT2 was made in the 90s. 993 turbo. The 190E evo. The Japanese cars were good cars, but if you think they were better than their euro counterparts you are absolutely smoking crack
