So, it’s 1994. Bill Clinton is head honcho. O.J. Simpson makes the news for a casual highway jaunt. And you have the option of going home in either a Nissan 300ZX Z32 or a C4 Chevrolet Corvette.

The non-turbo Z32 has 222 HP and 198 lb-ft of torque. It weighs 3,300 pounds and costs $30,825. The Corvette has 375 HP and 370 lb-ft of torque. It weighs 3,200 pounds and costs $33,600. Besides the small difference in price, why would you choose the Nissan?

Let Mr. Regular help you figure that one out. And keep an eye open for our own Stef Schrader, who makes a cameo appearance in the video!

Update: The Corvette figures used in this video were that of a ZR-1, not a base C4.
