Call me crazy but....

2theextreme · 05-25-2009, 03:12 PM

So I'm on the way home this afternoon riding with my aunt when I just looked over and saw an older (maybe 2 or 3 years old) Mustang GT. What caught my eye was the overly large spoiler. And the color was kinda cool...sorta orange-ish.

Anyway, as I'm looking down the side of the car I see a "R" symbol where I would have expected to see the "GT" symbol. That "R" looked mighty familiar, too. As his light changes green I get a chance to see the back of his car.....

....and I swear this.....

Call me crazy but the "R" on the side of the car and the "GTR" symbol on the back sure looked like it came from a Nissan GT-R. If he wanted to promote Nissan so much he shoulda just purchased one.

Unless I'm wrong and they made a Mustang R?

You sure it wasn't this dude?

Exactly! Except for the overly large spoiler....I SWEAR that was the symbol on the back of that car I saw today.

And I never noticed but there is a Mustang GTR, however the G and T are connected. Unlike the Nissan G and T symbol. The one I saw today, the G & T weren't connected and the R was just below them.

Now this....this is a Mustang GTR Concept car:

did he say it came with NAWZ????

If someone comes up to you and starts asking you questions about your car and is holding a camera.... its best to just walk the other way....

There is a GTR version for the mustang. It's a 2009 or 2010, something like that.

Junior370z · 05-25-2009, 06:54 PM

Oops! Somebody beat me to it LOL!

"It's got a rotary in there, right?"

"Yep"

Wow. Double wow. I love people that know nothing about cars and yet install mods because their friends tell them it would be "dope"

Remember....if it runs out of gas, he can always fill 'er up with the NOS! (Sorry, I had to go there)

Although I am not a mustang fan that version was my favorite of the later body styles.

The type R was limited in 2000 and had a race enhanced package, brakes, supercharger, suspension and of course aero... hence the R

so Nissan didnt trademark the Gt-R name....oh well

the Fords are going to use it.....they jacked KR from chevy...the Camaro's were suppose to have the KR name but Ford took it and trademarked it
KR = King of Road....damn ford...lol

Theres a bad *** Maxima that parks up the street so he can go to work I guess. Its Teal. The Trunk lid has been rattle canned teal, and in the center is a stenciled and rattle canned "GTR" just like the actual logo.

He also has a CF GT attack spoiler, and Nismo stickers everywhere! Every time I see it I laugh.
