Yesterday I drove our long-term 2009 Nissan GT-R out to Pomona to the wonderful Wally Parks' NHRA Motorsports Museum, which is under the watchful eye of executive director Tony Thacker and only seems to get better every time I visit. What a great place.
Hmmmmm. So I jumped in the GT-R and took it out to Pomona. Anybody out there like Ronnie and the Daytonas?
Little GT-R, you're really lookin' fine
Twin Turbos and a six-speed and a 7000 rpm redline
Listen to her tachin' up now, listen to that gear why-ee-eye-ine
C'mon and turn it on, wind it up, blow it out GT-R
Wa-wa, (mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R") wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa
(mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R")
Wa-wa, (mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R") wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa
(mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R")
Wa-wa (mixed with "Ahhh, little GT-R") wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa
You oughta see her on a road course or a quarter mile
This little modified Nissan has got plenty of style
She beats the Corvettes and the Porsches, really drives 'em why-ee-eye-ild
C'mon and turn it on, wind it up, blow it out GT-R
Wa-wa, (mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R") wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa
(mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R")
Wa-wa, (mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R") wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa
(mixed with "Yeah, yeah, little GT-R")
Wa-wa (mixed with "Ahhh, little GT-R") wa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa
<instrumental break>
MIXTURE
Gonna save all my money (turnin' it on, blowin' it out) and buy a GT-R (turnin' it on,
blowin' it out)
Get a helmet and a roll bar (turnin' it on, blowin' it out) and I'll be ready to go
(turnin'
it on, blowin' it out)
Take it out to Pomona (turnin' it on, blowin' it out) and let 'em know (turnin' it on,
blowin' it out), yeah, yeah
That I'm the coolest thing around
Little buddy, gonna shut you down
When I turn it on, wind it up, blow it out GT-R

You should have visited Tommys in Rowland Heights while you were here. There are plenty of GT-R's buzzing around on Colima Bl these days.

I'm still waiting to see this thing go heads up with the EVO X. Hopefully you guys can get the power that you want with that big turbo and regular ole' pump gas soon...........

LOL. If I had a dollar for every time some GT-R hater piped up and said some old BS I probably be able to afford one.

No hate involved here, buddy....just facts. I just find it a rediculas machine. It is obvious that the tech was not ready for a mass market machine just yet. Many cutting edge machines are like the GT-R....not ready for prime time. That being said I dont care how cool it is supposed to be, if I paid that much for something and it crapped out as much as this one did I would be furious.....the Ford GT was much simpler and far more reliable. A supercar you can rely on....just the way it should be.

Have you read the blog about IL's Ford and the editor who bought it?....Nevermind why start arguing..the GT-R is what it is.
