    Default Drove a GTR yesterday

    Ok so my boss forced me to drive his Nissan GTR yesterday, even though I was really enjoying my Dodge Thing rental car All I can say is that car is amazing! It seems to do everything well and would be no issue at all if it were your primary car. The interior is very well laid out and comfortable and it even has a very usable trunk. The best part is that the escape pedal located just to the right of the brake peal is very effective in putting distance between you and pretty much anything you desire Too bad it is not nimble like a Miata, but I think I could live with it if someone gave it to me. I want one so if anyone has $70k they want to donate to my cause please feel free to contact me at your earliest convince.

    Yup. Why else do you think his "boss" let him drive the GT-R?

    I’m a man, but I can change. If I have to, I guess.

    Honestly, I'm not that impressed with the GTR. Its to heavy and its ugly. Imagine how fast it would be if it weighed closer to 3000 lbs, instead of 3800+.

    I'd like to point out that I don't like the gtr because blah blah blah I'm on the internet talking shit about $80k cars blah blah blah.

    I'd also like to point out that blah blah blah this chick has pointy elbows.

    She sure does. Fix those elbows and she would be do-able.

    If they were able to cut it to 3000 it wouldn't be fast because you would have to lose the trick awd systems that give it amazing handling. Can't have your cake and eat it too. I wish my 1935 lbs Elise had a maybach quality interior
