So I happen to run into this little car meet on Sunday. A few really nice Vipers, a Ford GT, etc. Then this pulls in... :cool: :cool: I know it isn't a big deal for you guys in other countries, but it's a pretty rare thing here, since there are only a handful touching our soil (from what I understand)... :lol:

and you didn't even get pictures of that ACR Viper (beside the snake skin green viper) ?

The black/orange Viper was fully race prepped. There also was a deep blue ACR Viper, a grey/black Ford GT, and a few others. I was in a hurry and didn't get to take many pics. I got a few of the vipers and the Ford GT, but they weren't good so I deleted them.

I am a domestic man myself. I LOVE Ford GT's, Vipers, Vette's, etc, but the GTR is also an AWESOME car, and as rare as they are in the U.S., I couldn't pass up the chance to get the pics. :hs:

Its still not as fast as the Viper ACR now ;)

the new GTR shouldn't be that rare, compared to the R32/33/34

There are a few Skylines in Austin alone, but there are only a few GT-R's in the U.S... ;)

Yeah. The GT-R is huge. I was surprised to see the whale when I first ran into one on the streets.

they are becoming less and less rare. Ive seen 5 or so. Pretty nice, DEF not worth 90k. I'd take a used R33 or R34 GTR any day of the week over the R35.
