Should I get a GT-R?

Just assuming over here but since the GTR is pretty much a street/track car. You shouldn't have fuel starvation problems like you do every other day in the Z. So for that reason alone. It's worth getting it.

Heh, yeah I have to admit its pretty annoying. I don't even have that great of tires (hanook V12) yet I still have several times gotten fuel starvation with half a tank of gas in the car =( Granted it always recovers after usually only a few seconds at least when it is at a half tank. I have been stranded to the point of not being able to start the car like 3 times because of the fuel starvation =(

Kind of learned my lesson though I usually take it pretty easy if I am at a quarter tank or less.

Thanks for all the input guys. I am going to go test-drive a GT-R later this week. The company I work for was just acquired by another company and the payout I was expecting is actually about twice of what I originally thought now that I have more details although still no clue on what kind of bump I am expecting for retention at the company. Needless to say affording a GT-R would be easy at this point. I still think I am going to go the used route and look for a 2012 or 2013. I may end up waiting until the 2015 model comes out. We shall see.

This is of course all assuming I go test-drive one and like it
