The GTR is a joke, there are sooo many problems with the car, and wayyy to expensive. If I wanted to buy a $90,000+ car, I would want NO problems what so ever.

You know that article does state "Temporarily". It is not permanent. And the GT-R is not a joke... it is the most badass car to come out of japan. Just because you can't afford one doesn't mean you have to bash the car. I have not read/heard/seen any major issues with the GT-R at all. For the record... it's not a $90k pricetag... it starts at $70ishk the ridiculous prices you hear of are mostly dealer markups.

The GT-R has not had many problems, i work for a nissan dealer and we have sold 9 so far

the starting price is about 70,000 dealer markup is about 25,000. so there for roughly 100g to get one.

The car isnt bad (driven a few) it runs good, pre broken in from the factory, the computer system isnt bad, reminds me of a video game though. the tranny makes slight winey noise and in low rpm's its a little clunky.

But all in all the car is dam good. but...

Not worth 70g for a street legal race car. in my point of view ill take a r33 or r34 before the r35.

my $0.02

I am glad I do not visit these parts very often. Stupid people talking shit about badass cars they can't afford and have never driven.
