Wow, interesting but congrats!

Was there something you didn't like about the F that made you want to trade it in or were you just so impressed with the GT-R you had to have another? Just curious to help out those who might be considering buying an F

Not only he has two GT-Rs. He just bought his IS-F a couple of months back. What sort of hit did he take when he traded in his F? Now here's a serious baller

I like your style but I would rather have a ZR1 over a GTR. Or maybe even a nice Porsche. And cars are like the worst investment someone can make. Why not invest the money elsewhere if you are really looking to cash in on something?

Weird question: Since you are the first person with two (that I have heard of), any input on how one feels vs. the other. I figure I'd ask with all the talk about some being "factory monsters". It would be cool if you got one that was faster than the other.

Thanks, I might just do that.

I will miss the F and wish you all the very best of motoring in this, the first of the F cars from Lexus.

Why not wait a bit for 2011 model of GT-R (Spec V) ?
