Extra's...

is it me or does anyone else think that there should have been more optional
extra's available for the GT-R as looking at other similar priced cars, the options lists go on for ever!

just a thought...

i think the more options that are available, the longer the waiting list and the more expensive the factory line is for nissan. they wanted to keep costs down as much as possible. just curious, are there lots of options with a porsche turbo?

For Porsche Turbo - tons of options!!!
I also regret a bit that the GTR doesn't have more options to choose...
But id does have almost everything (especially the Black edition that I ordered), so it is full loaded already...
Just wonder one thing - WHY doesn't it have the PARKING SENSORS???

I love the fact Jap cars come fully loaded with no extras.My current Audi cost me thousands extra to get a decent spec & I wont get jack shit for them come trade in.German cars are such a rip-off.

Parking sensors = eyes and mirrors. I don't trust them anyway. My dad managed to crash into a very low post after trusting those things.

rear view camera. it's an option and works better than sensors.

Well, a part of those options are fitted as standard on the GTR (Radio, Bluetooth phone, GPS, electric seats, leather).

But there are a long list of external and internal customisation (Leather on the dash, carbon on the dash, aluminium on the dash, sport seats, different wheels, Porsche logo emboss on various bits and pieces,...).

It's actually very funny to create "your" porsche on their website (and shivers at the final price tag...)

Rear view camera on the GTR?
Never heared of that option, at least here in Europe...
Maybe they will add some options to choose (camera, parking sensors, fog lights) so I will be able to add that on my order cause I have my car arriving at the end of 2009...

dealer fit options are to be decided, even mats!!

Rear view camera is still in discussion but is expected to not be the same one as JDM.

Parking sensors are shit ,look shit and are needed by shit drivers ,they should never be on a sports car of any sort ,might as well fit a Tartan blanket on the rear seats as well ,that would look shit too.

I totally agree with this. It's so good to be buying a car that has almost everything as standard. Choosing the colour is hard enough!

When you look at the options list for a Mini, it's impossible to even tell what half the options actually are from their description!
