... You're not THAT far off from this LOL

Cars for Sale: 2009 Nissan GT-R Premium in Nashville, TN 37228: Coupe Details - 319378118 - AutoTrader.com


Which would you buy if you HAD to pick between a new G or a used GT-R (with reasonable miles honestly)?

It's not the cost that will kill you, it's the maintenance.

I wouldnt buy it for the fact that it has 68k miles. I dont commute far every day but I drive enough that by the time I pay it off it will be worthless falling apart with 150k-200k miles lol.

$57k isn't terrible, but 68k miles? Yikes!

$40k for G37xS, $20k in mods(SC or TT) = gt-r?

Idk...used super car you don't really know what the person did to it before you got it, how they drove it, how they maintained it.

It IS a GT-R though....and those are secksie.

You can mod anything, the mod bug does not discriminate Seriously though I wouldn't buy a used GTR with that many miles. That's right around the time all the major maintenance comes on and my pockets aren't that deep enough to handle supercar maintenance cost.

I've actually seen cheaper with less miles. As stated, you don't know what the previous owner did and this and that, which is the case with any used car, but I would have a hard time dropping 60 grand on a car with 70,000 miles.

a little off track here but since the GT-R maintenance has been mentioned a couple of times.....how much does the maintenance cost for this "supercar" ?

That's why I paid 26k for my 6MT with 19k miles. Because I'm the bargain hunter


gooby pls


Also I would be even more inclined to mod a GT-R that a G37. But as few have mentioned, the cost of modification are in par with super car standards...
