yea I have driven a GTR. I have also driven a TT370z and Ill take that over the GTR any day. That car is not that much fun. The all wheel drive system doesn't let you do much, and w.o the launch control there isn't a chance you'll get anywhere around 3.2 or 3.5 like they claim.

And this justifies your reasoning to call the GTR a POS? Then just for kicks, by that same logic, i wonder what your c300 must be...

I don't mean that the car is a POS, I was just using it as a term. My c300 is used for everyday driving but the hype people give the GTR, its not all that. Im talking about personal experience. I drove it idk about you. Don't stick up for it if you haven't. I said its a POS because it's not fun. There are many cars out there that have raw power. I also said the all-wheel drive kills the power and doesn't let you enjoy it, at least for me. I like my tail to be spinning out of control when I slam the gas.

Must be something about M3's. So far, this thread has shown that both Cali and NY "AMG LOL" plates are on M3s. A couple months ago, I saw the Ohio one on an E46 M3 in the outskirts of Cleveland.

I've driven my neighbour's GT-R a couple times and it is fun to drive, but I'd never own one for a few reasons. First, the maintenance is constant and expensive. Second they tend to drop their transmissions when you try to punch the gas. Third, Nissan tends to void your warranty when you dump your transmission and leaves you with a $20,000 bill. I'm sure the guy with the AMG transmission and warranty will get the last laugh, and you know what they say about those who laugh last.
