Does this mean an '09 GTR will finally be affordable on the used market?

Definitly a different setup, but the coolness factor was that you could custom order your GT-R in about 1000 different color, paint and trim combos.

yeah i got to see all the leather samples a few months back

although its not really my thing...if i had to choose .....i like the dark gray and burgandy combo ok....but the browns both the chocolate and like orange ish buckskin just didnt so it for me....

and of course the pink and red combo.... which is called "sakura"

here is all the combos for those who want to see.. just scroll to the bottom of the post

Also, they are reporting a 130lbs weight loss too, should be an interesting run at the ring.

yea thats for the track edition though.... the regular 2013 i dont think has any weight loss or any visual changes for that matter. ( except on small change to the black edition)

the ring attempt will be mid october.... i HOPE they post a time for the track edition in addition to the regular car....

with all the special editions posting crazy fast ring times now... i hope nissan caves under pressure and follows suit

well yes and no.... i hardly ever drive it on errands and around town like my 09...but like i said i do a bunch of autoX then go to the strip occasionally and had one track event already...so it sort of balances it out.... ive driven it maybe 20 miles in the last 3 weeks but only because one part of my tread is down past the wear bars and im trying to save it to get it through the autoX season before replacing front tires this winter.... i had this 24 hour autox last month and got a little to carried away in the middle of the night and cooked the tires pretty bad

but have a 600 mile road trip in the morning to the nissan hospitality event at the petite le mans so that should stretch its legs a bit
