Stunning GT-R at SEMA

This GT-R is stunning! One of the cleanest GT-R's I have ever seen,love how the body kit styles after the Le mans style aero package. Love the wheels on it too, great color if i might add.

Dirty scum bags, littering!



I am so impressed with the simple, but effective theme.

I love Nerds, even though they rot my teeth. Dweebs were awesome; I wish they had caught on and were still to be sold.

The other ones look very tacky or overdone. They have no theme to them, it looks like some of the tuners just slaped a bunch of parts and call it a finished product. Those Gt-R's look cheap IMO.

The Mine's one is one of the other ones I liked (mostly based on what kind of under the skin tweaks they are known for). Just need to remove the two front carbon fiber canards and it's good to go.

Someone can't afford one and is jealous? It could run rings around most cars on the road. Give credit where credit is due.

yep i totally agree with you. like for instance this GTR. Did the person actually think those wheels look hot?


Stan- hey bob, got any hot wheels for my New Nissan GTR?

BOb- wow Stan long time no see, lets go outside and check out this car you speak of. I never heard of a GTR before.

Stan- Oh you are in for a real treat. its the fastest car known to man. 0-60 just in 1 second.

BOB - really? that is faster then those Super Car we dream of.

Stan- well there she is, she is a beauty dont you think.

Bob- it look like Italian cars

Stan- well Nissan is From italty. guess why its the fastest car in the world.
So do you have any balla wheels to put on this car?

Bob- In fact i do, its one of the kind. its pure balla, speedracer type of Shxxt.

Stan- well lets see them.

Stan- Holy you are right, these wheels are hot. man you really have good taste Bob

Bob- well lets put them on.

30mins passes

Stan- Woot Woot this car is slamming. its going to be the best Looking GTR at Sema

(sema week comes)

Wow, they roped off that piece of ****? I would take the long way around that mountain of fail - I don't think they have to worry about anyone touching it. Amazing how a monumentally awful set of wheels can turn a fantastic car into an eyesore.

Your right J, that Mines Gt-R is tastefully done minus those carnards on the side. They usually are very mild when it comes to exterior upgrading to there GT-Rs, they put all there blood , sweat and tears into the motors, where it really counts.

This one is clean, no exterior upgrades besides the wheels. This is perfect for those who just want to set there car apart from others without sinking a ton of money into mods. Very tasteful IMO....

Mixed opinions on this one....Like the white with the black lower aero work, wheels are a love /hate opinion, definitely hate that huge wing!Blah...the theme could have worked , but its not a complete product.

DUB almost had a winner in my book, until I noticed that cheap looking primer looking grey trim...WTF? The wheels are passable, not great , not bad, love the all white look, love the matching clear corners front and back, the Tri-exhaust pipe is cheezy and looks ghetto, and the Japanese symble is dated and tired looking IMO. Not bad of an effort, especially from a company whose craft is mainly baller cars like Caddy, Lincoln,Lexus,Mercedes,BMW, etc.
