Next time you think about spending 45-50k on a G37, don't forget...

....thanks for the link.
Also, 68k is kinda high but a GT-R shouldn't be you're daily driver. That's where the geo metro comes in. =).
That's ridiculous! You can get a slightly used M3 for that price and it comes with warranty! Anything that breakdown on the GT-R will cost you an arm and a leg to fix. I'm content with my G

Worst case, you pick up the GT-R and drive a beater as your daily... GT-R on weekends.

No sir. Why would you do that? For 50K get a M Tree, used c63 amg or wait till they officially release the next gen G. Just hope they put a twin turbo for the IPL series for the G for about 50k. =).

This was just hypothetical though. Used GT-R vs New G37. I'm not personally trying to decide what to do with 50 G's.
I just wanted to spark up an interesting convo on the board.

As far as maintenance being high...this is a recurring comment. I'm starting to think that a lot of you guys don't have good mechanics or something. LOL
The only TRULY expensive maintenance on a car is a transmission, electrical, or engine issue in my opinion.

68k miles is really high
Sorry, the M3 isn't an option in this JUST FOR FUN scenario. It's just used GT-R vs New G37. The 68k don't even have to be considered here. I've seen lower miles for a similar price.

i was on the gt-r forums today just looking at the diy section. they had a whole bunch of stuff in there.
i personally wouldn't be bringing my car to the stealership for that tranny oil change when i could diy it for like $250 AT THE VERY MOST.

Not to mention that Im pretty sure no oil company refines, blends, and sells oil/hydraulic fluid JUST for the GTR. Mercedes tried the same trick with their Pentosin Hydraulic fluid that costs between $60-$80 form the dealer but $24 from Napa.
You just have to do a little research and find out what oil/fluid it is.

I love the GTR performance but I like the luxury feel of the G37.
Modding the G37 would give you the best of both worlds.. Wouldn't be right on par with a GTR with overall handling/performance for track but it would be close enough for my liking!!
