I think the GT-R is more for the tuner crowd. Not to mention kids who have parents with way too much money on their hands. I got a chance to drive a 350Z Nismo a couple years ago. It was fun for a ricer, but not something I would be interested in owning. I am 6ft 2in tall and I had a hard time squeezing into the tight cockpit. And with its hard as rock suspension it deffinately was not viable daily driver like the Challenger.

I cant wait for a Challenger either. The last 2-door "Dodge" I owned was a Stealth R/T. And boy, that thing was a money pit, let me tell you.

And yet you're buying another . . . Ha, I had an intrepid. Same deal. And yet, I'm buying a challenger too. What's wrong with us?

Children, children. You've never even SEEN a money pit. Wait till you've owned a '70 Challenger and used it as a daily driver for 27 years. Had I not owned it, I'd be addressing you today as the richest man in the county!

Happened to see a GT-R Saturday night cruzin around during the Car Craft Summer nationals. Very cool car. Got a lot of attention from the younger crowd. Although i would not buy one @ 85k+ I certainly love the technology and anything that is producing 580hp from a V6 is just freaking Awesome!

Oh yeah, I was getting plenty of attention my self in my 68 Dodge Charger R/T. There is nothing like old school muscle!
