I wouldn't choose a used GT-R over a GT500 for several reasons. One of the biggest being that being able to "buy" a car and being able to "afford" one are two totally different things.

A GT-R especially used is every bit as expensive to maintain as the typical 250K + super car. For one if that transmission goes to **** you could be down 20K just like that. Car and Driver demonstrated this fact in their long term test of the car.

Such as stunning piece. I do believe the merge of Ford and Chevy at one comprehensive creation would result to excellence. At one side, they are on the same position as they are today. They'll gonna be dominating the auto industry.

Truth.

You break a part on the GT500, easily replaced and costs the same as a standard mustang part to replace.

For those saying they'd rather own a M3/GT-R/Z06, your point with the GT-R and Z06 can be understood, but why would any of you want to own a car that a $27,500 car eats and shits out with less than a grand in mods (referring to standard GT vs. M3)?

Things are a dime a dozen here in Germany, the Germans are afraid to mod them for fear of voiding the warranty and killing their 15 year loan investment... yes, they can take out 15-20 year car loans and do, just to drive a fancy car:icon17:
