Still a bit disappointed in the B9 RS4 saga (ordered in May wont get one until March earliest so cancelled it) but looking forward to this wee toy
Compared to my last GTR-R35 which was an 09 plate this one is way comfier and quieter. Should make it an acceptable daily.
Arrives in November

R35 as a daily... I estimate the half-life of your driver's license at 15 days.

Tell me which fuel company you'll be using as I'll buy shares. I really rate the GTR but the ItalDesign GTR is real beauty

Do you need glasses?
I needed a bucket having seen that Datsun at Goodwood. It’s horrific.

I do wear glasses as I'm 52, I haven't seen it in the flesh but I really like it. As for PaulM's new GTR well done and give it a good thumping, when you go to court take cash.

Is that the colour you’ve ordered Paul?
What are you getting in 6 months - your average time to change
Bit like me and Mrs on holiday now and we are talking about where we are going next.

I've had one before and they are actually pretty good on fuel if driving sensibly. They can deffo eat it when playing but that's ok. Don't worry it will get a good thumping
"Take cash" I liked that comment lol
Not sure my thoughts on the replacement. I think in the right colour it could look awesome but would really need to see on in the flesh

Yes that colour. I like to keep under the radar. new M5 once it drops £20k in the first 6 month, nah only joking. Funny enough I never plan my next car it just kid of happens
Yeah we like our holidays as well. Kids are all up and more or less gone now. Running out of places to go in the US. I need to try going east but not sure. America/Canada are so easy to visit.
Too many people I know failing (or failed) due to poor health so we decided to enjoy now (mid life crisis but started about 10 years ago
) no point waiting until you retire and not fit to spend up the cash, so spend it now
Gee I really do sound old
You still got your pad in Boston?? Only been once but loved it.

Colour looks good.
I like the idea of a new M5 or new panamera but can’t justify a new one !
No we moved the Boston place on but still come to the states a bit - here now, but west coast.
Tbh I’m getting a little board of it so need to head a different direction too!

Yeah. I know what you mean.
Done a couple of road trip over on the west, canyons, death valley etc absolutely incredible. Loved every minute, on saying that the wife spends months researching stuff to see and do.
Mini road trip in the south early next year then maybe one last big road trip later in the year then venture east, who knows.
