GT-R on the road

[joe603]

So I just got back from a trip home to see the family. Nice long drive from upstate NY to Long Island...then to Connecticut. Just after the Throggs Neck bridge, I notice a sweet looking Nissan in my mirror...couldn't tell what it was at first; I thought it was a 350Z with an aftermarket front bumper. Then it comes closer and I get goosebumps....it was a new GT-R!!! Wow, what a car!! You don't see many of them on the road...in fact this was the first one I've seen out of the showroom. Absolutely beautiful car!!

Better start saving now....

When you get it....tool on down to Tennessee and give me a ride!!

Local guy got the first 2012 Black edition, I haven't seen it on the road yet though.

Apparently a White version of the Black Edition available as well, girl around Charlotte had it I believe.

Saw a black one the other weekend near Charlotte Motor Speedway.....
Saw a Ford GT on the road over there a few years ago. Red with white stripes.
Black audi r8 passed me this week on the way into work in CLT...
White r8-rs was parked downtown CLT last Thursday night in front of the Epicenter.
Where's that damn winning lottery ticket!!!???

Is that an Audi with a V8? I had one rev on me the other day. He had loud pipes and it sounded GOOD!!! At first when I heard it I thought it was a Challenger.

Had my 80 year old mother in law in the car with me not that I would have raced him anyway. It is funny....I was trying to drive so slow and careful with her in the car cause I know that little car was probable scaring her. She bitched about my cornering...I wanted to tell her that she ain't seen NOTHING.

A few Audi's have V8s. The R8 is the mid-engine one (with optional V10).

Becki, she's your mom. She probably knows more about your car antics, not to mention other stuff, than she's ever let on.

No baby....mother "IN-LAW". Big difference. Can you imagine what that guy was thinking. OMG there are 2 old ladies in that Z.

[Mudgen]

Oops, mis-read. Huge difference. I'm sure she's made up more stuff about you in her own mind than she's ever let on.

It's all relative. You and I are of an age. I'd probably see the MIL as an old lady, you as a babe.
