How many are planning to eventually move to a GTR?

Jordo!

Out of my price range.

Next car will in all probability (and in order of highest to lowest) be one of the following:

(1) Z35

(2) Next gen WRX (if 2-door)

(3) FR-S (if they offer a "supra" version with FI, much more power, etc)

(4) Z4 (the one I want is probably a bit out of my price range tho'...)

These are my options but you can add new mustang or used z06

I love the GTR. If you gave me one and I didn't have to spend 100K on it plus the operating costs, I'd drive it over any other car.

But, in my realistic world, I'd be better served spending that money on a fun, cheaper sports car, a practical car, and using what will still be left over for some fun experiences/trips or practical bills.

I love the GTR, but I would rather get the slower Carrera S. Maybe even a 360 Modena if the price is right.

The sales guy at the dealership wouldn't let me sit in the GTR and told me "The type of people that buy that car don't look at it first". I was helping a friend that was interested in an altima so I guess it was a little understandable.

I eventually decided I wanted a Z and have no regrets.

a customer is a customer, regardless ......when a salesperson has that type of attitude with a paying customer whom JUST MIGHT come back later on down the road at some point and buy that GTR ..... I expect top notch sales experience whether im buying a GTR or an ultima. for you never know if they'll come back later and buy the upgrade. not to mention word gets around.

Sales people should not shop with their own wallets for the customer. Back then I was shopping for a Z, then I started to take a peek on most of their cars, and when I got to the Z, I asked if I could test drive it. The first thing the sales guy ask is what car I am driving and if I had good credit. I responded "Toyota Corolla" (I was driving my sister's car at that time), and then he quickly stated "Oh... what's the most expensive thing you've ever bought?". I responded to him "my (sister's) Corolla" which he then stated "You'll want this immediately as soon as you test drive it, but it won't be a good idea since you have put a big down payment to be able to afford it." I got pissed, I left that dealership, called Costco the same day to find me a discounted Z, pointed me to a different dealership, chose a black one, signed the papers, they accidentally sold my black Z to someone else, ended up with a 40th. I was still pissed that the next day I visited the previous dealership, and with perfect timing, the same douche bag was there and asked me if I decided to walk away with their Z in which I pointed to him "No, I'm just checking if there's another Z in you're lot with red interior like MY 40th Z" with a huge grin on my face.

Sorry, not a GT-R reply. Done venting.

Exactly! I bought the Z used from a mercedes dealership and they were totally cool, opening doors and hoods anything to get me to check out those cars just for fun.

Too keep it maybe on topic, the nissan experience made me feel that they weren't really prepared to support the car. I'm sure when I revisit the 4wd car idea the GTR will be on the short list, but once you're in that category there are a number of other great looking well performing options... and I look forward to test driving each and every one of them!

That attitude bothers me. Off topic, I was looking at a Z06 yesterday, asking for a test drive. I was quite serious about buying the car.

The salesman says to me, "It's not as if you can walk into a Porsche dealer and just drive one of their cars."

I said, "That's funny, because I did just that two months ago, driving two used 911s and a new Boxster in this price range."

He just shut up.
