There is no key, its a push button start. That just controls the locks and trunk.
Yep, I know. Was just giving you a hard time.

The only thing that I didn't like about the stock GTR was the exhaust sound. It was so quiet and sounded like a vacuum when you revved it. With the new exhaust system thats on it, you can hear this thing from a mile away, such a great sound to it too, and rumbles at an idle. I'll do some vids in the near future. The thing thats weird about GT5 is non of the exhausts on the GTR sound mean at all, even the race exhaust.
Lol ohh. Wow I didn't know they looked so similar.Yep, I know. Was just giving you a hard time.
Thank you. It is a great car for everyday use, the transmission is smooth in automatic mode, but it has this 'lets go' feeling like it just wants to rip your face off. Reason for not driving it all the time is because I wanna keep the miles down and keep it in pristine condition. Everyday driver is a 4cyl. Chevy Malibu that runs about as much hp as my lawn mower lol.Wow, amazing car you've got there. What's your daily driver? I would have thought the GTR would be a nice car to drive to work in (though I've never ridden one myself). I understand about wanting to keep it low mileage, though.

Like going from Superman to Clark Kent lolBeeblebrox237Getting out of the GTR and into the Malibu must be quite a transition!
Thanks. You're gonna s/c yours? Nice 👍. Well heres a stock Shelby Super Snake (635whp) vs a stock GTR (412whp):
Launch control wasn't used there, so against a 2012 or '13 GTR (530bhp and launch instead of 485bhp) it would of been worse. I'm getting the launch control that's used in only the 2012 & 2013's (called LC4) and will run 2.7sec 0-60 on stock street tires. The 'launch control' in the 2009-2011's isn't technically for launching by definition of Nissan and can do harm on the transmission. Nissan knew people were going to launch them anyway so they added a designated launch mode in the 2012's that is safe, easier on the transmission and is covered under warranty. The AWD system and twin clutch gearbox is hard to beat, even when you are running a lot more HP. I'm still a bigger fan of a 6 speed manual though.Blackbird.
Well I guess that's what AWD, launch control, and paddle shifters will get you.
I would love to just be treated to a ride in a GT-R. Awesome stuff man.

Someone posted this carbon fibre steering wheel on nagtroc, I may just have to do it. It's a bit pricey though.
