Seriously 23k brake job as in $23,000???
11K exhaust?????
11K exhaust?????
I don't think the brake job is that much....
The Carbon Ceramic rotors last a VERY long time. The pads aren't that bad in price. Prices are similar to the ZR1 and Z07.
I know a password JDM exhaust is 2k
Id rather rent one of these GTRs on the weekend than actually own it.
Not really a timeless vehicle I see wanting to hold on to.

Yes that's correct
GTRs are holding their value like exotics are.. plus if you put an alpha package on it you can sell it for what you put in it. Don't see how owning one would be a bad investment? I couldn't be happier with my purchase and I haven't even driven the car yet
I've put 4k miles on mine since December and I barely have a commute. The car makes a good winter daily for me, and is an absolute blast to rip on. **** investment. The look on anyone's face when you take off wot from a stoplight is priceless. Picture an effortless 1.6 60' time from any stoplight if that's what you want to do. Or the ability to go around the twisties as well.
rather see a shelby than this
That's a full replacement system. You can't reference that as a brake job is apples to oranges
Sorry I must have miss spoke earlier I meant to upgrade brakes. I know you can do the aps but I was just saying like upgrading from stock to baer in shelby is 5 -6k so thats what I was referring to
Thats a whole lot of car for 67K!!! At only 67k invested bang for the buck will beat most SVT vehicles performance wise Hell....I have about 66k overall in my cobra which performs well but I have to admit you have more "car" and potential. Honestly alot of people may cry since it's not a GT500 but the truth of the matter is you got more overall performance if you consider interior/electronics, AWD, braking, handling and consistency. I don't care so much for the styling on the R35's but I respect it. Watch out for the maintance and upkeep costs!!! Thanks for sharing the pics bro....and ignore all the haters :beer:
Thanks dude I mean overall like you said I could've got a porshe or something fancy like that but I'm always about getting the best out of my money and I believe that is exactly what I got. I'll post some vids as soon as I get the title and tags. I'm going to take it to aam this week or next to get the e85 system and tune set up and probably upgraded blow offs as well:thumbup::beer:

Lol thanks man I can't wait to actually enjoy it.. Hurry up title!
I hate that waiting period of not being able to put my new to on the road waiting on title and registration.
A friend said that Hertz at the airport in Tampa has one. He had to ask, just wondering. From what he said, it was $600 a day, but they dropped it to $200 a day since no one ever rented it. Sounds like BS, but the guy isn't some 17 year old kid, this is coming from a guy I trust. Maybe the employee he talked to was lying though. Either way, for $200, if unlimited miles, OMG I would enjoy the **** out of it!
Congrats but ill be in the minority a say why a GTR?
Not sure what you paid but for similar cash I'd to with a superior Porsche 911.
