I certainly like the car and did not go for a test ride...but I will sometime next week at the dealer in their demo. this has been a long time coming since it has been a long time since owning a new car...I will keep my old S-13 Nissan for fun.

I will get it around the end of next week and I did a major search , both on the web and here..I found no real performance specs in either car and driver, motor trend or anywhere.

Performace wise, what can I expect after it is well broken-in..say,

0-30/40/50/60/100 and Quarter times?

I went with the 6MT package, aero package, color is Desert Platinum. I also might get the mudflaps...if they are not too ugly.

I just want an owner to tell me their experiences so I know what to look forward to. I loved the car from the first look. It is the closest thing to a "new" S type (13/14/15) Nissan Motor company car I could get IMHO.

Thank you for any replys. The S-13 I have has been great and I will own it for many more years, just time for something new I can love as much as that old dog.

Thank you very much!

It is a shade faster than I was guessing...I was figuring 7 second 60 and 15's...so this is good news! I plan to really care for it and try not to rig it...keep it relatively stock...

It is definitly an ugrade to the S-13. My S-13 has fairly low miles for as old as it is, it still performs beautifully, some mods but stock KAE block. The S-13 really satisfys but if I do a long trip, well this is where the G comes in and the S-13 can "guard the house" while away!

I appreciate that info. Looks like this will be a really good experience. I looked at everything from 25 to 40K and this was the one ..most like my present car overall.
