Nissan GTR
Good:
- Great quality engine & transmission if kept under 650hp/650tq
- If you have deep pockets, it is almost unbeatable (see Airstrip Attack results)
- Great sounding engine & the looks to go with it
- Amazing AWD, DCT, 6spds, sits 4 (2 + small kids in the back), and...
- It's much easier to tune than the M4/G8x (as of now)

The Bad:
- Old platform that is barely clinging to best of the best title
- Expensive and hard to get, specially if looking for new
- Noisy & clunky transmission. To the point that you think something is broken.
- If you get a used one: still expensive, most abused, with lost of miles/owners
- Nissan dealership support is Nissan level of quality; most don't provide $130K purchase level of service

The only way I would have gotten another GTR is if the prices would have kept the level of pre-pandemic market (i.e. $105K OTD). I almost got a new 2018 left over with 200mi. back in '19 for $93K OTD. But my dumb ass thought that prices were still going to plunge more, specially at the beginning of the pandemic... :/
