It'll be nice when the hype dies down and it will be just another car on the road.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
a buddy of mine and some of his friends went into the nissan dealership and asked how much it would take to take one home. The Nissan Salesman said that they were doing a Silant Auction for it and if you even wanted to be considered, look at going over $125,000 for it.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
It seems like a great deal for what kind of performance and handling you can get out of the car. Id much rather have this than a new Vette for 60-70k.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
I saw it. It's really nice minus the front end. They need black housing headlights bad. That's about it. At least it looks expensive and worth it.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
Its what the owner said it put down after a couple quick boltons... not sure what that means. He said it put down 503 corrected to 500 feet below sea level awhp.
I havent seen a graph yet though.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
If you have any idea who LeMon is you would know everything he's said in the multiple GTR threads have been fakeposts.

...That is the most retarded thing I've ever heard. I'm sure my car would make 400whp at 500' below sea level....

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
They apparently stopped in the Subaru lot sat night, I was not their but they got pics, two guys own it. They are apparently very nice people though as far as numbers go I have no clue.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
The owner is on MNSC and not that numb nut LeMon. In the spotted thread he was saying he would post a dyno sheet, have yet to see it though.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
There's this one older guy over here in WI up in Green Bay, WI who just recently bought one. I was driving up to Beyond Redline to get the car re-tuned and saw it driving by. Didn't recognize it first then once it got closer, my mouth just dropped. Always looks better in person. The car is suppose to be at the WIR track here in WI so I'll see if it shows up and post up some pictures and videos.

Re: R35 Skyline Spotted in Minneapolis!
That car would be sick with the boost turned up. It has 480hp at what, 12 psi? I know it was ridiculously low. For regular retail price it is a steal. The Spec V version aught to be really sweet.
