"Dealers drag racing new GT-R's @ Great Lakes Dragaway Took these photos at Great Lakes Dragaway in Union Grove, WI on Sunday. Some guys rolled in with these GT-R's with Dealer plates and decided to drag them over and over and over. Interested differences in trap speeds and 1/4 mile times though. Definately not pro's as they had to be reminded over and over to wear a helmet. If I were you, I would not buy these. Wish I was able to get VIN #'s. http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8698900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8707900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8723900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8725900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8731900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8745900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8750900.jpg http://bordumb.com/gtr/IMG_8752900.jpg[/quote] |

lets not forget manufacters give cars to dealers for there upper mangagement staff to have fun in...
my pops used to work for a mazada dealership and mazda usa gave him a RX-8 9 months before its realease to drive around and beat up he took it to willow springs irwindale and etc. he didnt put the car back on the lot to be purchased. it was a thank you gesture from the mazda north america for his sales achievement and positive customer feedback... |

One thing is for sure, if you are in the market for a GTR, or any sports car for that matter, and are buying with any miles on it be sure to at least get an ECU printout of peak revs and speeds for your own protection. With this car you should be able to get even more detailed info then just the revs, so you'll hopefully be able to see how flogged it was. |
Plus if the person driving the car was legit, they'd remove the packing??

Everyone knows they were just making sure the car worked fine for the future ownerhilarious

Sorry, but I dont think the cars were given as a thankyou gesture..... once again I think that is absolute bull **** and those guys should have their faces plastered over every hot car mag and forum so no one gets burned.
there loaned is wat i meant, on a temp basis. im definitely not saying they gave them the cars. same with my father they didnt give him the RX-8 it was loaned to him for his own pleasure and more importantly feedback on the vehicle.... |
