[2008GT500]

See I love the GT-R and know where a used one is that I could probably do an even swap on. See I still owe some on my GT500, but the M3 is paid for.

Go for the GT-R. You'll catch HUGE amounts of attention from everyone!

Sometimes I feel that I should've gone with that car, even though it has only 2 doors. The GT-R is a marvel.

I'm just wondering if that one car is worth the enjoyment I get out of two though.

I think the GT-R will be less driving enjoyment, but much faster and more attention grabber.

I guess 'faster' could also mean more driving enjoyment...

Well without my hefty car payment on the GT500 I'd have some modding money, do you not think upgrades would make it a more enjoyable car to drive?

Are you talking about upgrades to the GT-R?

If so.....A stock GT-R is waaaay fast, and on a level with super cars or even higher. I don't know if modding would really give a significant boost in performance. Many turbo cars are restrained from the factory, but I think Nissan pushed the GT-R hard, right out of the box. One of the main drawbacks I've heard of the GT-R is that it's too quiet. So maybe getting an upgraded exhaust note would be one of the first mods.

If you decide to mod the GT-R, just remember that the warranty is SUPER sensitive, ever since the 'Launch Control' issue that some unfortunate owners had experienced...

Software upgrades on the GT-R offer significant improvements over its already impressive performance out of the box. You're right though that given Nissan's handling of warranty issues to date, I'd be very wary of any major modifications.

So upgrading the turbo's would be bad? Ha.

+1. Get all the evosport shit done to it. It would be ridiculous.

I personally like having two cars though..it's something different. If I had gotten rid of them both I would definitely have picked up a CLK BS or an R8..both are somewhat impractical though

uh, I wouldn't mess with anything major like the turbo.......It could get pretty expensive, or even messy.

The GT-R's stock power is perfectly matched to its brilliance in handling. Don't make the mistake about seriously thinking of modding the GT-R even before you get, since that car is MIND-BLOWING FAST!! It's probably the fastest car that you'll ever drive......Probably.
