I thought rain pattering on the MX-5 soft top was happiness, but the Subie is even comfier, plus it's substantially less sketchy to drive in the wet.

His uncle's car, all personal feelings and prejudices aside, is better than OP's. Learn to English fucklord.

How could you possibly know that? He never mentioned what his car is, or what his uncle's car is.

The Z31 is mixed bag.
RWD, but heavy for just two seats. Cheap, but most are in shit condition in NA.
It's 3.0 V6 was huge and powerful in it's time,despite cramping the hell out of the engine bay. Turbo models have tuning potential, but are slow stock by today's standards.
The Z31 is purely aesthetic, but even so the 1st gen/zenki's are iffy in their huge nose overhang. All in all, good modding car, nice choice if you don't want an even crappier condition 240sx.
Have my Z31 porn folder, bonus points if you find my Z31 in there:

I don't even really like modern ferraris that much but it sounded nice
best good feels to me is auto x/ track time
also being able to swap cars with friends and romp on a different vehicle is great

I know what objective means, child. There is no such thing as a car that is objectively "better" than another car. Objectively better by what metric? Objectively faster, ok that would make sense. Saying that something is "better" than something else is making a value judgement and is inherently subjective.
