Ummm.... really? It's pretty obvious.
I don't know why people get so wound up and hateful on a damn message board. 'OMG you hate the Skyline you suck!" O.....k....that's nice. It never ceases to amaze me how confrontational and argumentative people can be on this board.
Well for one......Miata hold a different spot on the driving chart then a GTR. Plus at least the Miata has a real man's gearbox. Go to an SCCA event and start counting miatas till you get bored. "Queer mobile"??? I guess a car that sees a race track more than any other is gay somehow. :rolleyes:Quote:

Its a good car but i don't see it as a great car. Evo magazine had a great article last month and they said a E30 M3 is more fun to drive even though it is slower.
That really was a terrible response on your part. Shows you being a Nissan Nutswinger and this is coming from a former Z owner.
$ the $ i would not pay 100k for that car even if i had it. It is a great performance car but i would still take the older 1's anyday.
Wouldve been cool to see, but I wouldn't of rushed up there when everyone else was. Imagine asking everyone nicely to step back so you can get pictures without a bunch of kak's in it.
Agreed....Damn good performer, very good technology and engineering, but not a big looker. Don't get me wrong, I would definitely drive one, but flocking to look is pointless IMO.Quote:

People liking different cars for different reasons is a good thing. Car meets would be complete crap if everyone bought the same cars. :goodjob:
I'm not mad that he doesn't like it, but to say it's "not a skyline" is just stupid. It's by far the best skyline they've ever put out. Ignorance is just stupid. I don't care if you think it's ugly you're entitled to your opinion, but to say the car sucks or whatever, just makes you a complete moron. The facts are proven, it IS the best production car put out right now. You can't argue the facts. I could care less if you like it, but don't go hating on the car just to hate on it. That makes you an ignorant human being.Quote:

The best way to explain this car......
R35 is to a Skyline as a 350z is to a G35.
I hate to source it but here is the wiki on this.
Replacement
Main article: Nissan GT-R
Following the end of R34 production in 2002, Nissan announced their plans to separate the GT-R model from the Skyline name, creating an entirely new vehicle although it would remain on the same platform as the Skyline. This new car, now known simply as the Nissan GT-R, debuted in 2007 in Tokyo. It will be the first GT-R available worldwide, entering the North American market for the first time.
Although based on the FM platform used by the V36 generation Skyline, the GT-R uses an evolved Premium Midship (PM) platform. The car retains its heritage by using the chassis code CBA-R35, or simply R35.
Still stock turboed, RHD in jpan, and AWD. there for its a skyline!
Just messin around, I really dont see the big deal why everyone cant just get along without having sand in their va-jay-jay.
You never had me. You never had your car.
I LOL'd and I think a little pee came out.
he pull up in front of me

Hell yeah, I'm a part of the KKK. Kool Kids Klub! :eek:Quote:

Do not modify this car!!!:lmfao:
lol
(though I do still really want that shirt. If anyone knows where to get them, let me know. Cafe Press link is dead)
The guy that owns this one is named Cleve. He owns the car wash on Spring Rd. in Smyrna. Cool guy. Let me ride in the car the night he got it. Fast as ****!!!! and sticks in the corners like you wouldn't believe.Quote:

What's the deal people? If others like the GT-R, so what? If you don't like it, don't look at it. Why do you have to call out and hate on people who just came together to check out the cars.
And to the GT-R super fanboys, we know you love the car. That's it. It's your passion, so keep it to yourselves. Others can hate it all they want, just ignore it, don't have to go into e-fights and stuff. Who cares?
IMO, I like the GT-R just as any other rare and nice cars because I'm a car enthusiast in general. What irritated me are ignorant people going back and forth. Reality is, majority of IA, as well as haters, or fan boys, can't afford a brand spanking new GT-R, even at MSRP.
I don't care of Jay Leno came out and blabbering his mouth about how he hate this car, love the other. Because the man got the $$, own many cars that all of you can dream off. He drove them all, so he can have his own conclusive opinions.
My rule of thumb is, if you got the cash to put where your mouth is, then you can do and say whatever. Until then, hate it, love it, keep it to yourself, because after all, it's not real experience, it's just hearsay.
/rant.
Btw, thanks OP for sharing the pics though I was expecting much better quality, knowing that you usually take awesome pics :p
damm i missed it
Seriously I'm glad I didnt go. A bunch of high schoolers all pushing and shoving trying to see it. Bunch of ricers.Quote:

(ask any real RICER, cars is just a cars. civic and skiyline. it got 4 wheel and a engine) so what?
You can't compare an EVO to a Skyline. Nor a Civic to a Skyline.Quote:

yea but amuse is a reputable racing company. They are talking about dumb bodu kits and retarded high rise spoilers. Stop trying to flame. Its not working.
all lies. GTFO noob.Quote:

No theres a difference btwn professional modding and tuning, and throwing some fender flares and a spoiler on something. Sorry if I affended your style. Go look and read the article they put out stating that they dont want you modding the cars with wings, flares, and new bumpers. Of course amuse is going to put out extra power out of it. Thats what they do, nissan made it for the public. They cant design it with 900 hp and slammed to the ground b/c they actually want the car to sell. So for those few who like that crazy extra horsepower. They will go to aftermarket companies and do with the car as they please. Nissan has to try to make the car appeal to the masses and I'm sure most of them wont be modding it.Quote:
