From Ferrari to GTR

today was an unusual day.... i was at the Ferrari Dealership to place a deposit on the upcoming GT California, when i was offered not 1 but 2 GTRs from the Nissan Dealership arriving this friday at list price.
(P.S. i still placed the deposit on the Ferrari :P)

Any idea what they sell for on market in the US ? over here they are selling for $163k+ on the market.

Hi Dubai_TT,

i heard they are going for around the 600 000 Dhs mark, so that figure is about right for Dubai. I think its close to double the US price !.

I actually saw one today in Dubai whilst out putting some Km's on my car. It looked pretty good i think, but its a pretty big car, very imposing. I was in a hurry, otherwise would have been good to have a chat with the guy.

You get the boost issue fixed. I have been seeing 1.2 with sport mode selected in higher gears at approx 3000 RPM.

Congratulations on the California, whens it arriving ?.

Rgds.

yeah thats what i heard about the prices too... a friend of mine wants one so ill let him have it the other i might sell if it gets me those prices. I saw a few recently on the road, i wanted to try racing with them just to see how the TT would keep up with it in real life, however i have been unlucky as its either on the other side of the road or im stuck at the traffic lights.

As some members posted on this board the boost only hits 1.2 on higher gears, i tried going 120km/h and putting it on highest gear then going full on, when i do that it does hit 1.2

As for the California, the 1st batch would be available around march or april next yr. im currently at the end of the list (now closed) which is 4 years waiting list at the moment. However i have to speak to someone from the dealership to bump me up to either 1st batch or 2nd.
