New to Me GT-R
I purchased a Gun Metallic Gray '09 GT-R this past weekend. The car had 7,400 miles. I have had some pretty remarkable cars and this is definitely one of the best all around performers. It is an excellent compliment to my modded CTS-V.

Isn't it fun
Congrats! I just picked one up this past weekend also. I LOVE it. I've had a few cars in past few years (including most recently-a very well built and highly modded 560 awhp 996tt - just investigate my posts- for all the haters out there. hehehe) and this one undoubtedly tops my list!

Thanks guys!
I love the GT-R, but I have to say the CTS-V is definitely more comfortable to drive around in leisurely. Right now my CTS-V (8.34s 60-130) is faster than the stock GT-R, but hopefully that will change soon enough!

And that is with an 8.6" crank pulley. I have a 9.55" pulley waiting to be installed. Hopefully, that should get me into the 7.9Xs 60-130mph. That will be something to shoot for with the GT-R. I am looking at the AAM GT550-R package (V1 intake, mid-pipe, Cobb AP and tune) along with down pipes. I am wondering if that will be enough to get a sub-8s time.

If you really want to get into the 5's get upgraded turbos 700whp cost is around 5-6k for the turbos and under 700whp you can keep the stock tranny.
