If you're a 'real' car guy... not some poser driving around in a sports car... the maintenance is nothing more than a typical sports car... and significantly less than any other SuperCar!

The M3 is great... with everything covered including service for the first 50K miles... but the GTR shouldn't be looked to be high maintenance when compared to any other SuperCar...

Peace,

The maintenace cost issue is a red herring.
The only expensive maintenance is tranny fluid at 18000 and it is only about $1500. Anyone that can afford a $90k+ car should easily be able to afford that. All other maintenance costs are roughly the same as any other sports car.
You ever get an oil change for a Porsche or Mercedes at a dealer? Ouch!
