GTR Arrived
All, finally, 4 GTR's arrived into Saudi Arabia, 3 Green Hell Magno's and one Opal Red - there is another one arriving by end of the month (my original allocation). I am picking up an earlier vehicle that already arrived with RXC wheels which was my original order but they were out of stock so the one arriving with the RXB wheels will go to someone else. The car arrived end of last week and I'll be picking it up tomorrow.
From a price perspective, this did not end up as crazy as their initial cars which they were demanding $211K for, it ended up slightly more expensive than US, UK and Germany prices but nothing too crazy. I would have paid more if I bought one from elsewhere and shipped/paid customs myself for it.
Some pics for now and better pics after delivery.

Some additional notes, you can't believe how wide this car is and how the color pops in real life. Two things you do not realize until you see it in the flesh. Dare I say, from behind, its wider than a 911 Turbo

CONGRATULATIONS!! Your patience has finally been rewarded!
MAYBE....just MAYBE the US will finally see their cars cut loose too. NO good news yet though.
Enjoy your new ride!

Monsterous! The sound effects, mode, seating position, visibility - all perfect.
It is now quite dull for me to jump into the M3 or 911 after driving this for a couple of days straight. Power is instantaneous, no turbo lag, eye catcher like there is no tomorrow! Everyone is bedazzled.
I did not know there was a break in procedure, for a 1000 miles, you aren't supposed to kick down, go over 4500 revs or exceed 85mph. Good luck with that!!! I am trying my best not to. I failed multiple times 😂😂
