Default My goodbye to the F
Well guys and girls, its been a fun 3 1/2 years, and this forum has been a wealth of knowledge during my ownership of the F. The senior members on here know so much, and are an amazing resource. I've been flirting with idea of upgrading to a GT-R for some time now (as many of us do) and finally found the right one to pull the trigger on... A 2014 pearl white with amber red interior and 10K, a true cherry. Thank you all for making this section as special as it is, I will miss it! My part out thread is coming (shameless plug).

No way! I already took the vinyl off the bumper. Subtle mods is all this car needs.

Congrats on the GTR! Clean and powerful, and that F isn't too shabby either. Enjoy the added HP in good health!

For sure. Some people have gotten left over new 14's for as low as 84k. GTR's are slow sellers for 14,15 and some insane deals can be had with the incentives.

Congrats!

GTR looks lovely fella.

Make sure you snap a few more photos when you get a chance.

Will keep an eye out for the parts for sale thread as well!
