There is two new GT-R's kicking about near me, one white and one red. Ive one seen the red one once but see the white one a few times, and today i ended up behind it just about to go onto a 70mph road, i thought to myself, he is going to boot it here and my god he did, i was in 2nd gear doing about 25mph just approaching the 70mph zone when i heard this almighty rumble, :? , the bloke in the GT-R putting his foot down, i did too but i might as well of stopped.
This thing shifted like nothing i have ever seen and the noise was quality.
Got to say they look awsome, they are much bigger and wider than i thought they would be. :D

When I was out in Japan earlier in the year they sound and loon amazing! Sat in one in the showroom and wanted one...

Can't believe they cost £35k out in Japland but near £65k-ish here. [-X

I saw a white one earlier this month at Jap North East, it had an amuse exhaust on it which is rumoured to be 3k!

I know that a guy called Jurgen who imports Jap cars also has one but that is also white.

Awesome machines in the flesh.

The white one with an aftermarket exhaust is Ben Linney's one. He had the first one in the country.

I am puzzled by all those saying it is loud though - it isn't! :lol:

Believe it or not I saw one too this morning, a 57 reg. My brother has ordered a UK one and we were invited to Nissan for the unveiling and it looked great there, but on the road it looks something else :shock:

I thought it was a good sound but the finish on the exhaust tips looked slightly Max Power Saxo with 4 tailpipes.

A truly amazing car, the R34 was an incredible machine but this new version just takes the urine, apparently the G is so fierce on a track that it is advised to wear a neck brace type thing. Wish I had £53,000 kicking around, a friend in New York has just traded his 911 Turbo in for one.

Will have to stick a turbo on the 182 to keep them in view!! :mrgreen:
