Just came back from the nissan dealer...put down $2500 for the GT-R. I am #3 in line.

#1 put down about $70k cash, apparently he's a local businessman with lots of $
#2 Put down $2500 with the intention of reselling it immediately, dealer cannot not sell to him, even though they don't like it
# 3 me

So I figure with a release of 1500 per year, I wont get mine until summer of 09. I did get a copy of the check made and filled out a complete contract with a full money back stipulation, if they cannot get my options

Never done anything like this, by I got to drive the G like I stole it...till then.

 

That's insane, but congrats on putting a down payment on the GTR.

 

I'm number 1 , well my dad is. SIKE. I Wish! Nice and congrats man.

 

Thanks guys. I couldnt believe my wife gave me the okay last night...does that mean I am a slave for the next 2 years...only time will tell.

Dad owned a '73 Skyline GT-R and he drove it for 22 years, ~230,000km, I remember rebuilding the engine after a re-boring when I was 13...wanted one ever since then.

But till then I am a faithful G owner

 

what can i say...i hate you :shrug:

 

Congrats on your decision! I was contemplating keeping my 03 Coupe for a while and buying a GT-R, but I figured I'd rather wait til the second model GT-R/updates. So, I bought a G37S, plan on keeping that for 5ish years & maybe getting the GT-R, maybe not, if something better comes along :-)

 

I would love to get a GTR one day, they seem like they will be the king of the road for some time.

 

I imagine that dealer is real happy to take all that $$$ and draw interest for yr+ Most generous of U...even more generous of the guy fronting $70K...

 

g/l with that purchase

 

Where do you guys come up with the money? lol
Thanks!

 

yeah i did that last dec. gave them 2500 just to make sure i can get one... im getting employee pricing too. my dad works at nissan corporate and they told me the soonest i would be able to get one would be august of 09 probably and that was givivng the 2500 almost a year ago.... to bad now i probably cant afford to buy the GTR but im def in line too... maybe i can win the lotto or something b4 they get mine in

 

oooo nice i live in hawaii and we are only getting one and its taken and i dont have any money for one

 

I ENVY YOU! /cry

 

Lucky bastard lol JK. Great choice. I hope that it works out well and you get your car soon.

 

Lucky bastard, indeed. I can't wait to see some of your pictures and personal opinions on the beast.
