And I hear all the time that "I'll get one some day" and of all the people I've heard say that, only one one has. As for the luxury, if you doubt it go look or drive an R34. The GTR has become more luxurious with each new model. You can already say they strayed from the performance roots from the R33 on. Driving both an R33 and an R32 is a completely different experience. This is why they put a little more performance in the R34. I believe the new GTR will be an incredible sports car but we'll have to see exactly where Nissan goes with it. As for the GTR's being the same as the GTS-T's with a different drivetrain, your only part right. The shell is the only thing thats close to the same and even thats slightly different from the RWD cars. Most of the parts on a GTR are specific to the GTR, if you doubt me work on them as much as I do and try to find parts. They can be interchanged but are not the same. That kind of gross over simplification is like saying an evo is the same as a lancer, just with a different engine. Nearly every part of the car is different between the two.
