Exactly. The GTR has a maintenance schedule that rivals the costs of all of the more expensive cars it competes with from a performance standpoint. And God forbid you break something out of warranty. When I was looking at cars, a used late model 996 turbo was actually cheaper to maintain than a much newer GTR.
