yea if it's a 2014 R8... that's a different story i was assuming these vehicles would be at least a year or two old, not the latest and greatest models

Yeah, the GTR is a 2012, I assume the R8 is no newer.

This place, and any place that has any brains, would never buy manual transmissions for these cars and then let Joe Schmoe (me) drive them. I drive a stick, but I'd be so terrified of shredding the transmission in a $100k+ car.

I saw that R8 video a couple days ago. The spider IS the way to go. I do have some Nissan love that factored into my choice too. It was my old Maxima that really got me into cars in the first place...5.5 Gen. Still the best, minus the oil chugging.
