I wouldn't argue with him. He has the fastest dragster in the world.

Except it's not a dragster. And doesn't exist in the world.

And isn't the fastest.
 
I live in a place where thousands upon thousands of idiots slap $5,000+ rims and wheels on vehicles worth less than that. Rear spoilers on 4WD cars too, mostly done by the wheel idiots cousins and "bros".

Here is my photo to confirm this. You have to look closely, but they are all over the place!

This guy, NISSANTOS, says he owns a 2010 R35 in real life in his profile details. I asked him for proof, he never responded...
 
I'd say either he's got terrible grammar, or the other accounts are a parent's, and he's trying to pretend it's his GT-R, when it isn't.
 
His profile picture appears to be the keys of his GT-R and his name. Perhaps he's a grammatical fool with money.

Still, I wouldn't tell everyone I had a GT-R. He'll be surprised to wake up and realise it's gone when he tells the wrong person.
 
Or he got a hold of a key just for that purpose. We need more proof.
 
we got all the proof needed
its really funny, people with the mentality of a 12 year old have a gtr
i mean, all i have to say is he plays gt5 for drag racing, nuff said
 
I found one of his posts on the Nissan GT-R Owner Club forums, and he's got a video linking to his GT-R driving, his Youtube profile says that it's his car, and he's got a few videos of the same one, so I think he's legit.

All of that and his profile picture of a set of keys with his name. (as Katiegan pointed out) Leads me to believe he does actually own a R35.

Still, I would like to see some pictures of it though.

His profile here & there says he's from South Florida, yet the GT-R linked in the video is down in Houston/Austin. And he only just joined NAGTROC in April, where as the owner of that GT-R has videos of it linking back to a year ago. The YouTube account holder also specifies it's a 2009MY, not a 2010.

I'd say there's more evidence needed or the owner of NAGTROC can speak up for him if he knows for sure as well, since he's on here.
 
Nothing is impossible.

Apart from eating your own head.

Technically it's impossible to kill yourself by holding your breath. You'd pass out before you died, then you'd start breathing while you were unconscious. ;)

RIP, ZohsixGT5. :(

:lol:

Anyways, poor NISSANTOS. Nissan is a car manufacturer. Tos could be anything.

Regardless, some of the Ludicrous Claims are true. Like, I did almost have my helmet smashed to pieces during a ride-along in an RX-7, & I did run the same time as the RX-7 in my Hyundai at an autocross. ===> Nanking tires FTW... I had Kumho Ecsta tires on the Hyundai. You do the math. :sly:
 
GTR key for 105 USD?
Own an Infiniti ? Have and upgraded GT-R emblem on your vehicle ? Why stop at the car emblem when you can upgrade the smart key fob as well? This is a simple upgrade to the GT-R logo and not just a GT-R logo but the authentic NISSAN OEM FACTORY key fob straight from the dealer !
 

Considering it costs nearly $100 for the dealership to get a copy of my 17 year old M3 key based on the VIN, I'm not really surprised by this. Especially considering my key is just that, with none of the remote entry features or anything.

As for the guy claiming he has one, I doubt he'd drop that much money simply for that right. I've met plenty of people that can barely string sentences together with enough money for a GT-R.
 
I also lost respect for him and I agree. Some might not think much of it only being an unpaid $20.00 bet and big deal $20.00. Its still the fact he backed out of a bet. As I said earlier, we all know that if I lost and didnt pay, he would have been all over me about it. Its a very easy bet to pay. He could even buy a Microsoft points card for $20.00 and send the code via PM. Thats even easier than Paypal. I do that all the time for friends and family. Its a very easy way to exchange money. Again the point isnt even about the money, its about keeping your word.

Does the fact that I'm voluntarily repossessing my car in the next couple weeks make you feel better? I don't have the money, so deal with it.
 
I don't have the money, so deal with it.

I'm sorry, but there is simply no way you cannot afford to honour a $20 bet. Ever.

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that you are in financial difficulties right now, but at the very least, you should be asking for a grace period or a deferment from the person you owe the money to rather than copping a lousy attitude about it and embarassing yourself in the process.

I'm just reading through the posts, but here's an idea. Don't bet money if you don't actually have it. 💡. Never works in poker, it won't work here. Well, that is, unless you thought people will take it as a joke.

I sincerely hope that you do well in life, though. :cheers:

Here's an idea. If he'll wait a few months for me to get back on my feet, I'll sent him the stupid M$ points so everyone will get the **** off my back.

Ask him and see what he says. But do remember that it is really not up to you to decide.

And there's no need to get shirty with me, mate. You are most definitely the one in the wrong here, and no amount of bitching about it is going to change that.

Well I disagree, and bitching is what I'm doing.

You made the bet buddy. Perhaps if you took my advice and got in touch with Camaro like I suggested, he wouldn't have posted it in this thread and would have given you a grace period. You made your bed, you lie in it.

Again, who says I wasn't joking? 💡

Internet serious business. :rolleyes:
