Their alright. But, for the price you pay I'd personally rather have a P-car.

Obviously performance isn't a big factor for you. Because for the same "price" range, no current model p-car is going to come close to the GT-R's performance.

Sounds to me like he'll take a cut in performance and gain some good looks....

I don't blame him.

Thats fine and dandy. Everyone's got a right to their own opinion. Just remember though...looks are subjective...performance is not.

This one went for 20k over MSRP. A buddy of mine got it at MSRP, but there were lawyers involved. Long story. I'll be doing a photoshoot with his car when he gets it later on this week. Will keep you posted.

Have to agree here. I didn't really like it in pictures (except for in black), but I got to see it at a show in person and I was fairly impressed. It is indeed a big car, but IMO, size alone is a fairly minor factor in making it ugly or attractive.

I myself found that the design does look quite nice in person. I wouldn't say it's a classically beautiful car, but I certainly don't think it's as ugly as a lot of people are making it out to be.

The GTR alway stirs up so much trouble, on every forum...always amusing to read all the posts.

I heard the deliveries have been delayed bigtime, I suppose it's finally happening.
