Updates
-I love driving this car every day. I do not doubt my decision to by this and exit the Evo scene in the slightest.
-Lot's of compliments though not the type of rock star love I had with my GT-R
-Passing people on the way to work is a breeze
-I've been playing with the controls and I appreciate how much you can do from the steering wheel which means keeping my hands where they should be. I kind of wish I had a HUD so I wouldn't have to look down.
-brake dust is obscene on the front wheels in less then a week of driving
-wish the front seats had a little side support like Evo Recaros

I just looked up GT-R, and wow.

You had this?

Yeah that type of car would deserve rock-star love.

I sold my GT-R to buy a bigger house for my wife and three kids. I couldn't keep the GT-R, buy a house and meet me savings goals.

GT-R is one of the quickest cars on the planet. Lot of techno wizardry there! Think it still holds class records at the Nürburgring. Neat that you owned one at least for a short time.

My S3 may be on the same ship mentioned earlier in this thread. Supposed to arrive at a US port around 25 Sept and be ready for pickup at my dealership in Columbus, OH around 6 Oct. The waiting is killing me. :-)

They did it themselves. I just showed up last Saturday morning and it was done two hours later.

Last couple cars I've owned... I change cars like underwear.

The 2005 Evo is still in my garage. It's a project car. Bought it for $9k. Spent $10k on it so far and still can't drive it.
