Default Sold the F, then upgraded

I sold my ISF a couple weeks ago to a member here. It was my dream car for many years and I was lucky to own one. I drove a GT-R at an exotic driving event and it became my new dream.
After I sold the F, I thought I would just be sticking to my daily but a once in a lifetime opportunity came around and I couldn't let it pass by.

Introducing my new 2015 Nissan GT-R Premium. Gun metallic with Ivory White Interior. I should be taking delivery this week and will post more pics. Here is one that the dealer sent me when it arrived. I can't wait!

It is a beast. The acceleration is unbelievable and violent. I love it

Congratulations. Very impressive car.

Tickets are, too, if you get enough of them.......so take it easy. Also, since you are in Charlottesville, keep in mind that the use of radar/laser detectors is illegal in VA...and the devices, if used, can (legally) be impounded by police. State Troopers have "detector-detectors" that let them know when you are using one. So, you can own one...but I wouldn't advise turning it on until you reach the state line.....

VA, BTW, also has a very strict Reckless-Driving law.....20 MPH or more over the posted limit, and/or in excess of 80 regardless of the limit.


Now...before the rest of you guys here in the thread jump on me or get on my case for being a Safety-****.....I'm ONLY trying to do the OP a favor and save him (or her) from unnecessary tickets or other legal problems in the state.

Congrats. That is an awesome car.

One of our clients has a 2015 GTR with the same color interior, which I must say, out of all GTR's I've been in, is by far my favorite.
