Everything I have read about the GTR is very impressive. Someday, maybe someday!

a very limited audience given the styling for a non-sports car type. I don't think this car is going to hold up well on the second hand market which means its going to be an insane bargain at some point.
I'll wait for the R8 to come down some more.

the launch control is not made for hard acceleration of the line. read it somewhere in a magazine. thats why trannys were breaking all the time. and thats why now for 2010 it lowered the rpms it revs to so the tranny lasts longer. i think. been a long weekend of drinking.

Yeah I've been reading about the tranny failures as well. It seems to be the achilles heel of the GTR and Nissan is not helping owners that are having these issues because they took it to a track or they used launch control..ect ect. If this car is built for the track like Nissan says it is, then they should stand behind their product.
