I had a GTR for a weekend

and did not shoot it too much. I was busy driving it, but did manage to get a few pics in. I also started a blog just because of this car.
It was seriously bad ass, and I hurt my neck haha. I was thinking clarkson was a wuss, but no it was the car

its a good story its on the blog.

The part that is not on the blog is how I picked it up. I went in with my beater 1998 Nissan Altima (blue bird for some of you) and it was in for "service" at a dealership. So I needed a loaner car........... this is what I got. At least that was the cover story

i also noticed a Skyline 2000 GTR KPCG110

You've got some good highlights in the first one. Hope that you had fun with it!

Wow that is the best loaner car ever! I love the new GT-R. Im glad Nissan brought it back, I just wish I could afford one.

great story dude.My dentist has one and your right that car is stupid fast.

Me too on all accounts. They are cheaper in Japan when comparing used vs used to the US.

No kidding. I grew up around American muscle cars and to be honest...sure they have an appeal. I love everything with wheels and and engine. But...fks sake man...we are so deprived of overall performance in America that it pisses me off.

#1 we have NOT ONE production Turbo Diesel 4cyl Mid-sized truck AT ALL!

#2 the only turbo's we have are those you BUILD or those you pay WAY too much for... I.E. GT-R. WRX. EVO. But that about it.... while most foreign countries have ALL OF THE ABOVE for CHEAP$$$. I fusking hate our government and the whole wall-street hierarchy sometimes because they are the dumb S.O.B.'s that control imports.

When the fusk are people going to wake the FUSK up and realize that American engineering in the automotive area is becoming SHyT! while foreign engineers have been building perfection for decades..... THAT ARE AFFORDABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!​! makes me sick. fusking capitalism... Mark my word....if I ever become wealthy... my soul focus is to change this American bull**** that we make. So dumb and so primitive. (other than the OLD engineering)

I also grew up on muscle cars.

#1 we were suppose to get that cheap truck from India but that fell through

#2 we pay a lot less in gas than quite a few countries, so our focus is not there, its on cup holders

Ford has eco boost now It is getting better. I was a fan of the SHO taurus.

I have not driven the Taurus SHO with the turbo, but I did drive an F150 with eco boost, not really the same though haha


Sweet! how was that?
