.so um ...ya . i think you get my point.

No one mentioned anything about it, i just though it was funny how they have races of stock cars vs. modded cars. 50k cars vs 150k cars. To the haters the only bad thnig they can say about the GT-R is that it's ugly...which is fine wtih me. And....no i don't get your point buddy.

any luck with an m3 yet? theres a lotus dealership near my house that i pass on my way back home from work every day, and i saw a cayman there so i stopped in yest but it wasnt an S, so i wasnt interested...still sweet but need the S. it was a great price though. any other ideas on a car?
during thanksgiving, i will be checking out cayman S at HBL and see how things go.
also, i will go to local carmax and testdrive SMGII, since i cant drive manual.
though, i will buy manual when i purchase e46 m3. i just wanna get a feel for it since i never drove e46 m3 in general
also, i might talk to local nissan manager (bought my g coupe from him when he was a saleman at infiniti dealer and bought a nissan when he became general manager) about new GTR.
do you have an AIM sn? shoot me a pm!
definately it's expensive considering how much a chip can do for 335i! haha

We will see if you are right.. if you are wrong and I am right.. a lot of people are going to be hating among other things..
a lot of people = a LOT of people probably 75% of the people on 6speed for sure!

I agree that the VQ35 motor is a bust. I was planning on TT'in mine, but i'm going to hold off and save the money, i don't feel like spending 7k to get a blown motor. Although the GT-R won't have the VQ35, It will have a VQ38TT....which is a much stronger motor. I heard the GT-R is capable of holding 600hp. GT-R motors have never been clumsy....when Nissan comes out wiht a Turbo'd motor they do it right....example SR20DE, RB26DE. All the previous GT-R motors have help up good...so i have no reason to think this one won't.
