2012 GT-R is a bad mofo
I've talked some shit on the GT-R in the past. But if this (and the Ring time) are indicative of what this car can do stock from the factory, it's kind of on its own level for total value.

Unfortunately, they've somehow managed to make it even less interesting to look at it seems. That rear quarter panel is like looking at a piece of sheet metal. It may look much nicer in person.

I agree and Nissan also managed to ruin the fun you can have by voiding the warranty if you decide to actually use the car more than a few times.
On another note, when did this air?

Don't know when it aired, just picked it up on YT. What do you mean they void the warranty if you drive it more than a few times? I remember the infamous voiding of the warranty if you turned off whatever that mode was in the first year and they had several transmissions break . . at like $18k replacement.

by "Actually use the car" I do mean enjoy its full power potential. I was indeed referring to the VDC control which if turned off too many times it would void your warranty. In order to actually hit 0-60 in the 3.4(?) seconds you would have to turn off VDC.
I did read that they have fixed the problem. So I will admit to prematurely bashing the GT-R. I can't say I am or will be in the market so I never really followed up on the issue till now. My mistake.
