+1 The GS-R (V6) were not really powerful but fun to drive and had a really good handling. I use to own a 1999 SE and liked it a lot...Looked good to me, well equiped, leather seats and a hell of a sound system(Clarion), which it one of the reasons this car was and still is one of the most stolen cars in Canada, but this car lacked power though (140 hp)...
