Default Went to the ISF darkside and got a GTR

But i kept the F as a daily !

I can see why people like these cars but the F definitely has better all around feel of luxury car.

2012 or newer I would assume because of the LED lights on the front bumper? Very nice. Seems to be modded already. Congrats again!!

2013 it's full bolt on's at about 750hp, it's maxed at what a stock trans/engine can put up with safely.

Congrats! Ive been fortunate enough to drive my fair share of GTRs. They are fast cars stock have yet to ride or drive a modified one. One thing i noticed is the GTR traction control is super sensitive so i wonder how it handles the extra hp. Once again grats and nice color choice.

Congrats on the GTR

In have a 15 with full bolt ons 700 to the crank almost 600 to the wheels. Actually the GTR traction control on my model is way less sensitive than the ISF was. My ISF would always be kicking on around tight turns while the GTR just sticks and takes the turns with no issues or traction control kicking on.

I love the GTR it is just so fast!
