I'm really looking forward to test driving one and seeing how that works too. I'm surprised nobody else has come up with something like that yet, although it wouldn't surprise me if other companies already have something very similar if not the same in the works, but Nissan just happened to be the 1st one to bring it to a production car.

Shes fast, the suspension is firm but not rough. I love it.

WOW, that's quite a jump from your previous thought process. Nice, but just not quite on the same line of the 8 or even the S2K. pretty penny?

I got it for $30k + 0% 63mo. I decided i wanted something a little different from the high revving rotaries (and s2k) after test driving the sti. Its a totally different experience. I test drove the Evo GSR also but i didn't like it that much.

I've heard lots of positive press about it. Hope it's all that you were looking for in a car. Now that you've bought it, DONT LOOK BACK!!

Congrats!

Haha it was not even on my radar screen as you can tell from my earlier posts. But after i drove it i was sold. The Evo was not nearly as appealing so the decision was easy for me.

Thanks everybody!

Yea im currently researching painless mods for safe and easy power gains. But to be honest the car is quite fast stock and should suffice for a while. Im still breaking it in so i haven't even felt the full power of the car yet.

Here are some interior pics taken by another member on iwsti of his car, buts its very representative of whats in my car:
