I am enjoying the responses. Couple things I would like to add:

1) Mike is a cheater. He has THREE DDs and a Z racecar.
2) Nobody said you had to spend ALL $25k on a DD. You could spend $10k of that on a used Sentra and $15k on hookers or racecar parts. Life is good.
3) I'm not in the market for microphones.

After a bit more digging, I saw that early GT-Rs employed a "snow" mode on the car. Would any of you who said "yes GT-R" drive it in the snow? Or a typhoon? Tough mudder competition?

On a more sincere note, I'm leaning toward the whole 2015 Nismo and finding a way to import a Nismo Pulsar (because Nissan should make it here in the US to battle the WRX/Focus ST/upcoming MS3 trifecta). Turbo hatch for a daily, sick *** sports car for any other time I feel like driving.

It's nothing against the GT-R. It's nothing against my driving or money or anything else. It's everything against EVERYONE ELSE in my measly town that would park their rusted out Ford Broncos on top of it at the grocery store, or the Dodge Ram 3500s rolling coal on me on the interstate. I have a feeling it would attract far too much attention.

Any NISMO drivers in here? Do you get more attention than a high school twerking competition when you're just trying to make a beer run?

Bargain in my book.
Agreed, it's the best performance bargain going. I just don't think that visually it's up to snuff... if they made it look like a Z it would be epic. I'm of the opinion however that the real reason we're not ever going to see a factory TT Z is because GTR sales would plummet.

All the &^*$% time. It's flattering but also annoying. I have 20% tint because I was starting to feel like a goldfish.
