Picked up my GT-R on christmas eve and started the painful running in process!
firstly can anyone tel me if there gtr is a bit juddery pulling away slowly, find it tricky to do a smooth slow pllaway, when just wanting to creep along for example, is this a trait of the car?
also when turning say in a car park the wheels seem to rub the arches, again i am asuming this is a trait?
aside from that, I am now past the first 600 miles and giving it some stick, the car is awesome, even on damp and wet roads it just grips and feels so stable.
I was worried about the ride being too harsh from the initial test drive but now having drove it for a while my worries are gone, the ride is awesome and although the occasional road is a bit harsh its no big deal, i was even considering waiting for the 2010 car as read about improved ride, but glad i didnt now.
The multimedia is awesome, might sound stupid but i wasnt even told that it had a dvd player when buying the car, once picked up i noticed the dvd label next to the cd slot, and got excited, immediatly went and grabbed a dvd and put it in, fingers crossed to see what would happen, and full dvd came up, what a bonus that i wasnt expected, i knew it was coming with ipod connect and jukebox, but this as well, the car has everything!
Reactions to the car are ineresting, its either people breaking there knecks to look at it or they dont notice it at all, I used to own a tvr tuscan, eek, and that made everone turn there heads, even old grannies, but the gtr is different, which i prefer, it atracts people who know and loves cars, and sometimes yu just want to go out and not have every single person looking at you, its a nice balance.
The car has exceeded my expectations and everything just feels and gs so much better than the initial test drive!
Looking forward to summer at santapod now!!
