Miyuki's Car?

Same poll as is on DA, go ahead and vote both places, because you're awesome. Akiko pic should be ready tomorrow.

Some context to this - Miyuki has always had a current gen Nissan Z tuner as her car, so I've periodically updated which one over the years. So at one point it was a Nissan 350Z, I think in the Oracle Sword it was a 370Z.

But I kind of feel the current Z isn't as interesting of a car (honestly, neither were the 350/370). I mean it's nice, I like the retro 240/280Z aesthetic they're going for and if you gave me one I'd drive the hell out of it, but it's not super characterful, and I feel she should have a characterful car. Like, I've seen them on the street and they don't stand out much. So consider:

Current Z is a $45K car, which she could afford given her job (and secret ninja money). It has 400hp stock, although her car is not stock, so performance is basically whatever we want it to be. She'd have bought it new, and then customized it. Like the 350, it would need the customization to stand out, I think. This would continue the trend and Miyuki would just have a forever young Z.

Old School 300ZX was almost my first sports car, I was going to buy one but the seller backed out and I bought the 944 instead. That aside, she could probably pick one up as a mechanic's special for like $2K somewhere - so long as the body and frame are fine all is well, the drivetrain is going to be completely rebuilt (this is expensive, but doable with a secret ninja garage) - stock it managed 300hp new. The last year for this car was 1999 so it would be older than she is, but you still see them on the road. Lyta also drives an older sports car (70s Corvette) so they could be old school together.

the GT-R is Nissan's high end sports car, if you remember the Nissan Skyline, this is what it grew up to be. Performance wise it's a beast - up to 700hp, 0-60 in under 3 seconds. But you pay for that, it starts at $122K (and can go over $200K) and she definitely can't afford that. However, she could have won it in a street race or got it as a reward for sneaky ninja things so it's not impossible - I have seen them around on the streets, so it's not a unicorn of a car. This is definitely the car she'd want to have, of the three.

Incidentally, did you know that one horse generates 15 horsepower?
