Of owning a ZL1. I'll be picking up my new GTR in the morning and I can barely contain my excitement. The ZL1 has been fun, but not for me. There's a ton of great people and info here, I hope the new owner registers and digs in. Drive safe everyone

It will stay "stockish" for a little bit. Alpha something later on down the road

Congrats on upgrading to the GT-R!

I would be lying if I said that I wasn't a tad bit envious! Enjoy and don't forget to post pics and your driving review.

I'll probably wear the camera out

I dove a friends 2010 with full exhaust/tune and the pull on it was insane. I actually dint know what to expect 0-60 in under 3 seconds to feel like, but it was addicting. Anyone that likes straight line performance as much as me probably shouldn't drive one unless you want to buy one

GT-R is my dream car.
preferably in gray.

They are certainly becoming more and more easily attainable. I should be spending the money investing in something, but you only live once

If they made one in manual I would own one that is a sick ride I just wouldn't be happy with an auto for me personally it takes a majority of the experience away
Best of luck with the new ride
If they make a manual version before the new z06 is easy to obtain I will own one otherwise I will have to settle for the z06

Saw a lady in one today waiting (patiently) at a stop light... NOT.

Since I got my ZL1, I haven't even thought about driving the gtr. ZL1 is way comfier and makes better noises

Hope you enjoy your new car OP.

Thanks. I prefer turbo spool to blower whine any day. However, different strokes for different folks. My wife has a comfy SUV for when that's needed

BPG · 07-11-2014, 12:26 AM

Dang, I gotta sleep so tomorrow will get here quicker.

BPG, just saw your PM and answered it. I guess it is a moot point now. I hope my lack of answer didn't cause you to switch camps.. JK Good luck with the new ride.
