One of them came from behind me on the motorway,

They completly re-define fast when you see one in real life

It shot up a exit then and it surprised me how it just glides about, the body doesnt move under accleration it just kind of shoots forward

Yeah ive seen that thread.
Engage that once and its a 3k bill.

This car is already in the " I think i can afford it bracket"
Most will end up traded as often as shiny charizard pokemon car in 1999 and run into the ground imo
Its like owning a 458 italia and should be treated as such.
The running costs make a Evo X like a 1.2 Fiesta

I've seen one of these in Kidderminster and it redefined the meaning of fast for me. I wonder what sort of time it would do a quarter mile in??? 11 seconds maybe... Or lessDunno

Well it is.
I suggest you actually look at the costs.
Supercar performance with costs to match
www.gtr.co.uk/forum/132940-my-baby-went-today-3.html

Two costs from that thread.
15600 for one year doing 7.5k
9600 in 10 months

Front discs and pads are nearly 2k
Fluid change is 600

I wish I had time to read the whole 37 page thread. Those prices were just ridiculous, £140 for a small cube of polystyrene Shock

Still no. Go and buy a new front end for a 458 and see how much more than £11,000 that costs. They're impressive cars but they are still a Nissan at the end of the day, which is part of the reason they cost less than a third what a 458 does and I guarantee a GTR would be cheaper to keep. They might be nearly as fast as a 458 but speed is not the whole story.
