I like the GT-R. I don't know why some people feel like it's lost its luster or whatever, but I think it would be a fun car to have and drive. I see it as a touring car. I'd definitely take it out when I could. I would just have to park it far away from everyone.

Dammit, I was at Target earlier and forgot I wanted to look at phones. Now I'm going back.
lost its luster because it now costs 6 figures.

Same reason I picked a Z too Dave...the heritage. I've always been a fan of Japanese sports cars, particularly the Z32, but I was never able to afford one back then

Aaron since you dont make as much as you used to I think you qualify for more time off than so lets see ya this summer, z or evo, tho I havnt seen the evo yet in person

Sadly Ive already have spent more in mods than what I paid for the car back in 05, 20k. The really sad part is I'm not even fi yet while dropping that much money so far
