Welcome and a nice R35 example you have there!

I had the pleasure of piloting a 2013 GTR through 200 miles of Northern CA backroads last year. I'm on the market for a "weekend car" soon and while I can't shake the desire to step into a Cayman R or 911, the GT-R holds a soft spot for me. It's a beast, and absolute machine and high performance car. That being said, I do not find it fun to drive slow and I have no doubt i'll get into trouble owning it. Still... A quick tune and exhaust mod and you're done.

Used values will likely dictate where I end up.

Had some track time in a Gallardo right after I bought my BRZ and actually appreciated the handling when I got back in it. I can see how an FRS/BRZ would be a refreshing change from a GTR without numbing you like a nice sedan or truck.
