Each and every time you start the GT-R it checks its own oil.
Its factory spec tire pressure is just 29 psi front and back.
Kids really do fit in the backseat. Forget about adults.
Under the passenger floor is this hidden compartment where important items like the tow loop is stored.

You seem to have a bunch of tools missing from the hidden compartment.

Was the LT GT-R in Torrance yesterday afternoon around 5 pm?

that's fantastic that kids can sit back there! Now I can get a new family cruiser! Although I'm not sure how I would feel about those woofers booming so close to thier ears.

Cool shots of the backseat. It looks about as useful as that in my MINI, haha.

The GT-R better check it's oil upon start! A severe oil leak would mean the seizing of a very expensive, hand-built engine.

Ah, comforting to know the oil situation is so tenuous that the car must reaffirm its drive-ability every time you turn it on. Japanese cars never go wrong do they? Its like you don't have to maintain them at all :)

What do the kids think about the dual subs wedged in between them? What? WHAT?.... =)

Even the addition of those cute kids in the back seat don't make the Nissan look any better. But I guess a car guy somewhere is showing this photo to his wife.

wow, only 29psi - guess you don't need much pressure when the tires are that wide. anyone know what the Ford GT or some other comparable wide-tired cars use?

Hopefully they like each other since there is only one cup holder.
29psi isn't a big deal I run 26psi in my Miata for daily driving and my dad's March usually runs 14 front 16 rear

Okay, I'll be first:
"What, $70K and only one cupholder in the rear? This car is a POS!"
There. Now no one else needs to say it.

So what was the cause of the check engine light? Did I miss a post on the resolution of this problem?

29 psi sounds about right for a 3600 lb car with 235/295 mm contact patches and a 44/56 weight distribution.
lol @ "one cupholder in the rear" comment.
