    GTR sighting

    I saw my first Nissan GTR on the road last weekend. It was getting on the southbound 355 ramp from Butterfield Rd.

    It didn't look too bad in black.

    I have seen three of them so far on the streets. One in Chicago and twice on SB I-43 around Mequon. The look in person is really growing on me.

    I seen two around here in PA. One silver and one red. Even seeing one in person doesnt really do it for me but the performance is amazing.

    I see those same two a lot also, and a couple of others closer to me. See them all the time in NY/NJ also.

    For me, seeing it in person ruined it. I think it's just horrible, but of course looks are subjective.

    The performance is solid, but to be honest, no amount of performance can over-ride the looks of the car for me. I'd rather drive a slower car that actually has gorgeous lines.
