A lot of people seem to forget the Skyline wasn't originally a performance car. It was just a basic sedan. Later they made performance versions, and now those are what almost all people associate the Skyline name with. But it shouldn't be surprising to anyone that a lot of Skylines don't have a 250+ horsepower I6 with twin turbos.
I actually get a little annoyed hearing people say the sedans don't deserve the skyline name, so are we supposed to forget every generation of skyline and its whole beginning? I'm having to resist ranting about this all as the sedans are amazing vehicles. The gxi can actually be a really fun car despite the na ca18 since the ca is a good engines despite what sr20 fanboys say, had an experience with an auto gxi on a dirt road in mocambique and despite the car being pretty ratty it was still such an enjoyable moment. I will never shit on a non-gtr skyline, they deserve better

Only two minutes in and already a whole breed of car comes to mind for me. Every super track focused car. Like the Aventador SVJ, 911 GT2 RS, McLaren Senna, Ferrari 488 Pista, Huracan STO, 765LT etc. Their base models are fine, although in most cases already impractical, however when you add all the race stuff, stiffen the suspension, take every bit of storage space, make it unbearably loud and lower it so much that it scrapes the ground, idk I think it's objectively not a good car. The definition of a car is a vehicle to get you safe from A to B, these things can barely do that. And it doesn't have to be like that, the 720S is already fast, so is the GT3, Huracan Performante, Aventador S, 488/F8 Tributo. I think Aston Martin and Ferrari did it well with their super GTs, the DBS and 812, as both are fast and aggressive, but still comfortable GTs you could travel through Europe with.
@@TopCarsTV You mean the Zonda? It's the Epitome of what I described. Together with the Ferrari FXXK and other track only toys, I hate these cars so much.

Virgin 2.0L tdi vs. chad 03’ 1.9 tdi. Don’t expect almost anyone to know about turbo Diesel engines but the 1.9s from 03-04’ put down more power and sounded better
10:41 We used to have an Ibis White RS5 Cabrio. And I loved it to bits. Such a good looking car and the sound, oh my god the sound. And I agree. It looks stunning, but the TDI ruined it.
@@difficultytweak1 Or maybe the Q7 V12 TDI ahah, Personaly I'm not a fan of diesel, but there are some Diesel engines that have such potencial, and some models are very intersting ... for example the 90's and 90's Golf's GTD, the R8 V12 TDI concept, old 70's or 80's E and S class's ... One guy that live close to me tuned the 1.7 TD from a Mk1 Punto, and with some mixing the 69cv went to 90cv but the torque was up 160+ Nm, that pulled like a train in a light car like that ahahah (long post :) )
One reason I believe they made the 2wd jeep is because not everyone seems to by a jeep to go off road, some jeeps just see a paved road all there life.
My dad owned a 1.8 litre Skyline. Yes, it was a slow car, but it was economical and extremely reliable, cheap and easy to maintain. He regretted selling it to buy a Toyota.
It has less power and a lower 0-60 than the performance model S. If you’re gonna make a $1 million electric car, at least make it quicker than a luxury family sedan.
I can also think of the 1969 Ford Mustang E (the E standing for Economy). It had a 4.1L inline-6 that only made 155 horsepower and took 13.3 seconds to 60. You also couldn't get it with A/C since it would hurt it's fuel economy.
- GR Yaris - Golf R - Dodge Challenger Demon (the base 6 Cylinder Challenger is ugh) - Lancia Delta Integrale - Ford Focus RS - Megane RS Trophy-R You get the picture
I get the other cars for your criticism, but if you are to criticize the Skyline, allow me to explain why you are dead wrong. I knew you were wrong as soon as you brought it up in this list… The skyline was originally built in Japanese market as a town car, affordable and relatively good on fuel while remaining considerably practical! When Nissan brought the name to America and Canada, they had the same concept idea in mind. To have a vehicle that was relatively affordable and efficient, while also retaining an interesting stylistic approach. They realized that Americans didn’t really like the same thought of efficiency as Japan and quickly got rid of the base trims.
I'm not talking about the whole lineage of Datsun Prince and how it became Skyline 4-door, and now a GTR. I'm just talking about the R34. Among all R34s the only one that's not so sporty at all is the one I mentioned.
Aha you definitely gathered a lot of attention with that pick Skyline should still be excluded from the list, it was still intentionally built as an economy car before becoming a sports car. So no matter how much horsepower, it was created intentionally
The earliest models of the C1 were badly built, would leak rain, had only 2-speed auto, and an weak straight-six from a truck. By the time the V8 came along all the issues were fixed. Dodge LaFemme. A car for women, thought-up by men. Cost more than the regular one and the girly extras were not worth it.
hey stype can you make a video on the top cars/car from each country not all countries needed just major countries and continents that make cars and use them in large numbers you never talk about you know like the Asian or Australian car market just a suggestion because you know American and European car market is huge and everyone talks about them
Skyline one makes no sense. The skyline was never just a sports car that the GTR was based off of. The skyline has always been just a normal sedan for the most part, with the GTR and GTS/Ts being exceptions
if the r32 GXi was that bad, then I'd say the same for the non type r civic and non sprinter Corolla, including lowest trim of Lancer, Impreza, golf, 3 series, focus, and non SRT, SS, NISMO, type R, ...
The thing with the R32 is that all models above GXi are sporty. All have a 6cyl. Some have turbos, some have AWD and GTR has it all. Civic... Most models are regular, with only a few sporty ones.
@@TopCarsTV And does having a car with just a 6cyl or AWD make it sporty? No. The Lexus IS300 had a straight 6, and it wasn’t supposed to be sporty. There are plenty of average cars with AWD/4WD. And there are plenty of regular cars nowadays with turbos.

I'd love to see that 😃
I love the Zonda R and That seriously hurts to see the Zonda R on this list of 💩 cars
I love it too, but if you think about it, it's really just an expensive piece of art and engineering
@@Inferiis More hurts, it is only designed for track racing and never meant to touch roads 😭😭
Opinions on the new C63 amg now having a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine instead the V8 that it’s used to have?
Environmental law
@@gabtheone it's not the law.
@@aguyfromgermany5202I mean that the regulation are harder to achieve with a V8 vs the i4.
A worst version of any car is a CVT diesel cabrio... spot on, I have to say...

4:23 Asphalt 8 players: "Hey i know this one it's a classic"
The commentary is absolute gold. Love it. Subscribed!
Much appreciated!
My honorable mention for crap version are V6 and 4 cylinder trim of muscle cars
I discovered this masterpiece of a channel just now
the algorithm has done its magic..
This is actually the best car channel
The second car in the final three was a Corvette C1, while the last looks like a Nissan convertible
Not sure if it was the 180SX, 200SX or 240SX
It's a 180sx I think (it's probably Japan only but I dont obsessively look at obscure S13 models)
It was a nissan 240sx chuki convertible (specific to the north american market), probably there cause all came in auto only and with a ka24 which I get the disappointment with the auto... but like the ka24 really shouldn't get as much hate as it does, like the sr is good but the ka and ca deserve more praise .
Am I only the guy who loves the Inline-4 Diesel sound? Lol Btw, I love to hear it all day.
Imo, The A5 Cabriolet TDi was really good car for me. 😅
You are not the only one who likes the diesel sound
You have absolutely no taste. Go run into traffic
4:49 closest thing it got to advertising was being the second car you were expected to own is Asphalt 8: Airborne. (Don't forget that Asphalt 8 USED to be a great game.)
(8:05) R.I.P. headphone users
that Zonda hanged middle living room made my day😂😂
I want that Pagani Zonda R. It's like greek god among cars. Absolute legend. Yes I would take this on race track if only i could afford it.
Forget affording it, with that noise, you can't even drive it around a track, surprising for a track car
There's still some solutions to reduce the sound.@@rohitchandran4471
Both the Nissan Skyline GXi R32 at 2:56 and the Audi R8 e-tron at 4:22 say Number 5. Good job with the editing 😆
I didn't even realise that
Virgin 2.0L tdi vs. chad 03’ 1.9 tdi. Don’t expect almost anyone to know about turbo Diesel engines but the 1.9s from 03-04’ put down more power and sounded better
Still a diesel POS
I had a Diesel cabrio and I couldn't hear the engine... The A5 would be great with DSG or manual.
7:58, challenge accepted
Let me know how that went :)
@@mental_hazard6991 I'll be more amazed if you actually do it 😉
This sounds sus
Honestly a GT-R version of that Skyline’d be 10 times better than the 2-door one in my opinion.
10:41 We used to have an Ibis White RS5 Cabrio. And I loved it to bits. Such a good looking car and the sound, oh my god the sound. And I agree. It looks stunning, but the TDI ruined it.
RS5 diesel? Or r u just referring that an A5 diesel sounds bad, which is ? eheheheh
:D
@@CLK.11 No I mean the A5 in general lol
@@difficultytweak1 Oh ok sorry xD
But an RS5 TDI would be brutal ahahahaha
@@CLK.11 Oh no it's fine lol, but I agree, an RS5 TDI would be insane! Maybe something with the SQ7's V8 diesel
@@difficultytweak1 Or maybe the Q7 V12 TDI ahah, Personaly I'm not a fan of diesel, but there are some Diesel engines that have such potencial, and some models are very intersting ... for example the 90's and 90's Golf's GTD, the R8 V12 TDI concept, old 70's or 80's E and S class's ... One guy that live close to me tuned the 1.7 TD from a Mk1 Punto, and with some mixing the 69cv went to 90cv but the torque was up 160+ Nm, that pulled like a train in a light car like that ahahah (long post :) )
3:17 gotta love that unreal tournament reference lol
Yep
One reason I believe they made the 2wd jeep is because not everyone seems to by a jeep to go off road, some jeeps just see a paved road all there life.
Because girls who live off of Starbucks and instagram are the main demographic, as well as off-road guys
Man i gotta say you r the only one who can call a Jag E type ugly n convince me abt it...
Nice vid
My dad owned a 1.8 litre Skyline. Yes, it was a slow car, but it was economical and extremely reliable, cheap and easy to maintain. He regretted selling it to buy a Toyota.
people forget the skyline was never a fastcar the gtr was but the normal version was always a car for the people
i disagree with the e type 2+2. even in this configuration still a decent looking car
I think it looks amazing. Extremely unique shooting brake
I didn’t even know race tracks have noise limits, and I kind of like the sound of the Zonda
I really really want the 4door skyline..
I think it's more interesting than the 2door overrated ones.
The original Cherokee also was available as a two-wheel drive option , but only in the US not in Canada where I live .
The r32 gxi also shares the chassis with it which is a great platform
yeah, that's true
because all R32's use the same platform lol, its just a difference in the engine and drivetrain
Good job with that video ! After a boring day at work this is all i needed 👏👏
7:02 That license plate has my initials!!
stype strikes again!!!!!
The '53 C1 had the looks but it also had a 150hp Blue Flame straight 6 with a 2 speed auto. Sad.
hey man nice content ur channel keeps me away from my addiction.
The R8 e tron sounds actually pretty dope, if it had a reasonable price
The next R8 will be electric only
@@TopCarsTV :(
It has less power and a lower 0-60 than the performance model S. If you’re gonna make a $1 million electric car, at least make it quicker than a luxury family sedan.
@@TopCarsTV How did you get the R8's price so wrong? The actual price is less than 1/5th of what you claimed it to be.
@@komentierer literally the first result when you google "R8 e-tron price" says it cost a million
I'm wheezing from the jokes rn 😭 it's 2 A. M. here and i can't stop laughing this guys humor is epiiiic
I literally have watched every single video like 4 times they're just so good
I have been waiting for your vids ... Really love ❤️ it 👍👍
1:45, that's crazy! How can Tesla get away with that!?
Because that was in 2012-2014
@@Danse_Macabre_125 is it different now?
@@giovannip8600 Nowadays even the cheapest, crappiest Model S has Supercharging and a much bigger battery than that
Finally a new video, its taking longer than GTA 6!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Your videos are the best!
I can also think of the 1969 Ford Mustang E (the E standing for Economy). It had a 4.1L inline-6 that only made 155 horsepower and took 13.3 seconds to 60. You also couldn't get it with A/C since it would hurt it's fuel economy.
100hp/L is a lot for the 60s
Lol wtf. 4.2 litres and only 155hp
6:21 it should be > not < as what you've writtem there means that the tex applies to engines under 2L not over
Will you make a video with the exact opposite?
Best versions of shitty cars
It will just be sporty versions of some economy boxes
- GR Yaris
- Golf R
- Dodge Challenger Demon (the base 6 Cylinder Challenger is ugh)
- Lancia Delta Integrale
- Ford Focus RS
- Megane RS Trophy-R
You get the picture
@@DefinitelyNotEmma Also the PT Cruiser GT with the Neon SRT-4 engine
Great series! Definitely make more of these!
OK, the RWD Wrangler may be idiotically dumb, but maybe drift car? Lol
I get the other cars for your criticism, but if you are to criticize the Skyline, allow me to explain why you are dead wrong.
I knew you were wrong as soon as you brought it up in this list…
The skyline was originally built in Japanese market as a town car, affordable and relatively good on fuel while remaining considerably practical!
When Nissan brought the name to America and Canada, they had the same concept idea in mind. To have a vehicle that was relatively affordable and efficient, while also retaining an interesting stylistic approach.
They realized that Americans didn’t really like the same thought of efficiency as Japan and quickly got rid of the base trims.
I'm not talking about the whole lineage of Datsun Prince and how it became Skyline 4-door, and now a GTR.
I'm just talking about the R34. Among all R34s the only one that's not so sporty at all is the one I mentioned.
Aha you definitely gathered a lot of attention with that pick
Skyline should still be excluded from the list, it was still intentionally built as an economy car before becoming a sports car.
So no matter how much horsepower, it was created intentionally
I believe the last 3 cars were the Corvette, the 180/200/240 SX and an American car which I don’t know.
All three are from the US.
PS. The one you didn't know - it's a car for women, designed by men. It was awful
@@TopCarsTV was it the Dodge Custom Royal?
@@ht012p4 yes, the LaFemme version
@@TopCarsTV I see, anyways thanks a bunch! Keep up the good work with your content!
long time since last one, love you Stype and TopCars
Amazing video man. I agree with all the points made. The thing I didn't understand was what's wrong with 'Bel Air' and 'Corvette'?
The earliest models of the C1 were badly built, would leak rain, had only 2-speed auto, and an weak straight-six from a truck. By the time the V8 came along all the issues were fixed.
Dodge LaFemme. A car for women, thought-up by men. Cost more than the regular one and the girly extras were not worth it.
@@TopCarsTV ohkay got it..I think as fas as Corvettes are concerned, it better be a V8 and nothing else.
@@TopCarsTV that was a 1955 Corvette with the 265 CID V8... that's why the fender script has an enlarged V to denote the V8
@@randomrahul5221 well the one pictured is a V8.... it has the enlarged V in the fender script denoting the 265 CID V8 that was new for 1955
@@hangglidernerd ah, I didn't know that. It was meant to be the Blue Flame one.

Nobody:

hey stype can you make a video on the top cars/car from each country
not all countries needed just major countries and continents that make cars and use them in large numbers you never talk about
you know like the Asian or Australian car market
just a suggestion because you know American and European car market is huge and everyone talks about them
Tough topic. Which car is better AMG GTR or S-Class Maybach? Depends who you ask...
@@TopCarsTV Exactly, countries like Germany, Italy, Japan, Britian and the US have too much internal competition
@@TopCarsTV yes man that's exactly why i wanted a video like that no European cars no American cars
Skyline one makes no sense. The skyline was never just a sports car that the GTR was based off of. The skyline has always been just a normal sedan for the most part, with the GTR and GTS/Ts being exceptions
if the r32 GXi was that bad, then I'd say the same for the non type r civic and non sprinter Corolla, including lowest trim of Lancer, Impreza, golf, 3 series, focus, and non SRT, SS, NISMO, type R, ...
The thing with the R32 is that all models above GXi are sporty. All have a 6cyl. Some have turbos, some have AWD and GTR has it all.
Civic... Most models are regular, with only a few sporty ones.
@@TopCarsTV And does having a car with just a 6cyl or AWD make it sporty? No. The Lexus IS300 had a straight 6, and it wasn’t supposed to be sporty. There are plenty of average cars with AWD/4WD. And there are plenty of regular cars nowadays with turbos.
I'm liking this video just because you made the cylinders smaller for the Ferrari engine(visually).
Good job man ! 💪🏼
Thanks! 👍
I'm actually laughing at your commentary the most watching this video!
Yes he posted.... it's okay timmy untie the noose and get off the ladder
if you made it this far we were going to let an anvil hang over the TV and see what happens 😁😁😁
Your video cuts are hilarious. That's how you do funny yt videos folks.
In Skyline R32 GXi defense, Skyline was originally a sedan, it became a performance car later, so it's understandable for it to have a sedan version
Finally! I’ve always said the E Type 2+2 was ugly, it’s nice to see someone agree
Only 6 rpm in a audi????
Very nice videos, lot of informations and i like your ''critic'' style. Greetings from Athens-Greece !
Jeep Wrangler 2 WD. I don't believe it.
The editing is phenomenal
I'd add the Mercedes-AMG SLS Electric Drive as a parallel to the R8 étron.
Another "supercar" that decides to make being electric an excuse to be crap
