Ugh... driving to CVS and saw TWO .. TWO of these riding together:



Fo some that might be a "oh ok big deal" but where I live (aka close to hartford) this is not a common sight lol

+1 .

 

sorry try again

 

I think I've only seen 2-3 GTRs on the road around here. Mostly stuck in Boston traffic haha.

 

If i remember correctly there are only far and few dealers that actually sell these in the US

 

I've only seen one in person on the road, funny story btw
Guy was in front of me at a stop sign at a T-intersection,
Guy looks back in side mirror and sees me rolling up.
Guy becomes a bad *** and tries to drift from a stop around the turn
Guy drops clutch, fishtails, almost goes into a semi and back into a ditch before recovering. I mean while take the turn like a NORMAL human being and laugh my *** off behind him

 

^ Must have been launch control or something... GT-R doesn't have a clutch pedal to drop.

I've seen them driving around my area from time to time. I found it kind of weird when I saw 4 different GT-R's when I was driving to a friend's place once.

 

i tried to chase a white one the other day, got some crappy pics on my phone before he dusted me lol

 

you would be right, they do have launch control.

 

here in SoCal, they're a dime a dozen.

i have seen one with a full carbon lip kit, carbon roof and aftermarket wheels. looked clean but i doubt how long the carbon lip will last with the shitty roads we have here

 

where I'm from, I'm finding it even difficult to spot RX8's!! We don't get too many nicer lookin rides here. It's Civic nation lol

 

They are RHD. Interesting.

 

they are nice cars, but for the price of one you could own a 3 rotor 8.

 

We have a local guy here named Tito who owns a LY RX8 with a 20B turbo who also owns a GTR. I have seen a few GTR's running around SA.

 

If you want shitty roads come by my place. 6" deep 18" long pot hole less than a block from me and I'm in the burbs (well if a small city has burbs). Winter always adds 2 in to depth and 4+ to diameter to any pot hole here. If I were to try using my stocks all year long they’d last maybe 1 year... then new rims would be needed. Farm land for the win lol.

 

I see a bunch of GTR's where I work, Coral Gables. The car is sick..

 

nice,....

i seen one, 2 days ago getting food for the rent's it was on a flat bed truck heading west... A repo truck that is....

they are nice, but i'll take the R34 or R33 anyday of the week.

 

that's freaking cool, I don't thin I ever seen that color.

 

Me neither, thats why at first I thought it was one of those stupid kids that does a conversion kit on a honda lol. Then it got closer and I see an older asian guy and im like WTF. Then i look up again and theres another one, same exact color, except the 2nd one had a GT wing on it and different exhaust

 

I see these things all the time, probably driven 4 or 5 different ones already.

 

I see a lot of exotic cars in my area--mostly stock. There is a winding road here in Houston called alllen park way, a few days ago I came across an orange murcielago LP-650SV. Naturally, I was speeding so he gave chase and passed me. Because is a road with a lot of turns--mostly 60mph+-- and not straights I was able to keep up behind him... barely. Very cool, he gave the thumbs up.

 

haha man you should move to cowgary lol! gtrs here are winter beaters for some people lol ( that was actually serious )

 

Local guy near me has a black one and bought his wife a red one and they always drive around together.... Now thats a couple

 

I love this time of the year when we can see more nice cars on the road. I'm not envious though of the "nicer" ones, honestly the RX-8 satisfies my automotive needs perfectly.
