I own both a V8 VR BT1 and a 180sx sr20det.I brought the VR first and am regreting it as the 180sx is such a better car in all aspects.

All aspects hey, fishing are we?
Because a 180sx is such a great family car isn't it? heaps of luggage/pram/shopping space and a great amount of roomy, comfortable on a long trip seating, with heaps of head and leg room in the back for three adults, or let me rephrase that, three adult dung beetles.
And those doors, who needs four of them when you can get away with two? so much easier for passengers to get in and out from, I don't know why car manufacturers even bother anymore since we have obviously found a better design.
One of my favourites is the amount of things you can tow behind it, let's see, small trailor? barely but you'd better get a new clutch on order, large tandem trailer? nope, family boat? not a chance, caravan? now let's not kid ourselves the last thing I saw being towed behind a 180sx was it's partially dismembered exhaust.
But we can't forget about occupant safety, of course a small, light weight, tin can panel two door is light years ahead, especially with all the boy racers driving them.
V8 commodores aren't designed to be a small nimble ricer, they are a family car first with plenty of comfort and room and family like abilities, not rev your ass off, bumpy riding, better watch out because if it hits anything bigger than a star picket it'll peel open like a sardine tin buzz box.
Careful where you troll.
