Disclaimer so I dont get any sh*t for what Im asking: Im not trying to offend anyone or hate, I have a legit question.

Im not completely up to date with GTR's but I know they are a rarity. Besides that what else makes that GTR an upgrade from his Z? I look at the miles on that car, how hard its probably been driven, and the year it was made, the Z honestly seems superior. Of course besides the rarity of it.

The GTR is faster stock for stock. Plus by the looks of the pictures his GTR is pretty clean and looks well taken care of. Factory FI is always a nice feature to have because its easier to upgrade and the motors are built for FI. Sure you can always build a non FI motor but its not the same.

And the rarity

Twin turbo from factory, AWD & stupidly rare. I've also wanted one since I was a kid.

How do you know the mileage that its done? I never listed it Its done 100K KM & my Z had done 38K Miles - just under double the mileage although its a good few years older. Its also in just as good condition as my Z - infact the underside & leather seats are in better condition than my Z. It also came with a full service history from Japan - I've got a folder full of paper work that came with the car.

Eventually yeah, I really want a set of mag blue RE30s or a set of SSR type R's - might just throw some spacers on there for now though

Finding one of those in good condition is awesome, finding one in good condition and for sale is awesomer, and having the pocket change to pull the trigger is a dream come true...
