AMG's and M's take a big hit after 1 year. Was contemplating the upgrade as well for a 1 year old 2013 M5 or 2013 E63 which now can be found in the mid $70k's, compared to $105k+ brand new.....

Having said that, nice upgrade, love the car, color and options.

Joe, I've been trying to reply to your PM but your mailbox is always full. About a year ago, when I needed to buy new tires for my 20s, I decided to save the money and use the OEM set. I don't have it anymore, all I have left is a set of 20s that I'll have on sale soon.

CJ, let's meet up with the guys again.

The GT-R is not a car for everyone, at least it's not for me. I'm spoiled by the luxury and comfort of Lexus, I can't see myself daily driving a car that feels so cheap inside. My boss purchased one last year and I've driven it many times; sure it is fast, but from a roll it's slower than my M5.

Beautiful car! If you're moving on from the F, this is the right move.

That exhaust is about 1/10th of the cost of the car, I was thinking more in the line of a cat/muffler delete, LOL. I have no plans on modding the car yet, maybe next year.

I would say that's a stretch on the roll comment, unless its a early run GT-R, even then....

Beautiful car (your F10).

Very nice upgrade, it looks great. And a GTR would not be an upgrade from an ISF, being faster is not an upgrade.
