So personally I dont care, I'm happy with my VG which still has ***** compared to lot of other cars.
I've seen it the other way

Are we gonna have another damn thread about VE vs VQ just cuz of my suggestion on the 93 GXE? lol
C'mon guys I said it sarcastically simply cuz I've got a 93 GXE, damn immature hooligans
BTW that thread of VE vs VQ didnt end up too nicely did it?

My 93 GXE ruled, but it had a nasty rust problem. I didn't know about the problems with the VE motors until after I bought a 93 SE off of Ebay. But I stole it for $790! So thats a good starting off point. It had a few problems, but they're getting fixed one by one (a JDM motor coming in the spring). Plus, I swapped some parts from my GXE, then sold it (the GXE) to a buddy, after we did some patching. Anyway, if I had it to do all over again, I would probably stick to the GXE. With a y pipe, K&N air filter, and a set of KYB struts, I was very happy with mine, and it seems like there's a lot more that can be done with them.

For sporty wishes, I would have to say the 1994 SE 5-sp is the best model. It was also only in 1994 that Nissan added a ski-bag pass-though through the armrest.
For luxury and pimpness, early-production 1992s (i.e. made in late 1991 as a 1992 model) were the best because there was a fully-equipped package with airbag which also had the HUD (they kiiboshed the HUD after 1991 models).

I have owned a 92 se and a 94 se and have looked at several other
89-94GXE and se models and IMO I feel the 94 se 5 speed is the
best all around max in 3rd gen models. Mine has 248,000
and has been trouble free.

My Infiniti has the VQ35DE and with almost 90k miles it runs perfectly and uses no oil (knock on wood).
