Wow Nice!

I always thought Vipers looked big but the GT-R makes the Viper looks super small.

Where in KS do you live Sungkyo? I was considering the GT-R before the IS-F but the maintenance costs are what made me change my mind.

Nice mural man - I'd like to get one of those for my garage backdrop!

Glad you got a 2012 GTR, love the new integrated LED's for sure but still bummed they don't do a manual tranny. But quite honestly I would take the Viper over a GTR anyday if I wanted another impractical toy.

What is your DD? I'm sure you must have another ride besides those 2....

His viper is so fast, it has six gears... for reverse.

His GTR is powerful enough to have a one wheel drive powertrain. It chose to have all wheel drive just so the other 3 wheels didn't feel left out.

His IS-F has 4 doors, one door for Sungkyo to get in and out of, the other 3 are emergency exits and require instructions from a flight attendant.

Congrats!
The 2012 is really looking like a heck of an improvement over the previous year models. I love my 2010, but the increased HP and upgraded interior sure would be nice!

Thanks guys, I'm sure I'm gonna love the GTR I just hope that it is close as being reliable as the ISF has been, because I have heard and read all the same stories that you guys have. You should see the customer waiting room at the Nissan dealer here....Yikes, not quite the Lexus dealer. I bought the car from Woodhouse Nissan and would highly recommend them as Ryan Pemberton was awesome to deal with and was well worth the 3 hour drive. Woodhouse Dodge is the largest Viper dealer in the world and they become number one by service and knowledge.

Where in KS do you live Sungkyo? I was considering the GT-R before the IS-F but the maintenance costs are what made me change my mind.
I'm in Overland Park
What is your DD? I'm sure you must have another ride besides those 2.. 2010 RX350 and the GTR will be my DD's. I only put about 7000 miles a year on the ISF
I always thought Vipers looked big but the GT-R makes the Viper looks super small. Yeah I was really surprised, thats not a camera illusion the Viper is much smaller, If I remember correctly the Viper is only 6 inches longer than a 911 but looks much bigger due to that hood.

Regarding the Banner, I love it but I am definitely the white trash car geek of the neighborhood . Banner was made at custom color in kansas city and they just used the high res photo I supplied

I figured somewhere in JC with that garage LOL. I'm in STL but know KC well. Better get yourself a waterway clean car club membership for the GT-R so you can keep it looking pretty all year round. I have one for my ISF and love it.
