The Silvia is cool, nobody is arguing that. But right now you are paying 3-4 million yen for nostalgia, for the look, for the history. You are not paying for a better car. If you buy a GR86 now, work hard and keep it clean, in 20 years people will look at it the same way they look at a Silvia today. Lightweight, rear-wheel drive, manual, proper driver's car. Those cars do not get made like that anymore. And you get to actually enjoy it now. New car reliability, you can daily it, you can mod it with an HKS turbo kit like you said, and you are not scared of breaking a rare classic every time you drive it. If you want the look and the legend, get the Silvia. If you want the smart move and a future classic you can actually use, get the GR86.
