RS4 eats Brakes on track
M3 would be good with mods.

That was a 7min 45second B to G. Not bad, but not enough to get the juices flowing. The one mat posted yesterday with the tuned CSL was lush :drool:

doesnt nissan see the gearbox as a consumable aswell.

Everything I have read about the GTR tells me that they are cheapish to buy considering the performance, but to run and maintain one needs a supercar budget.

Yes, you are right. The running costs are astronomical and that is what would worry me about  buying one. There will be more 10p millionaires running them than millionaires and so maintenance will be an issue. they may get FSH, but what about the hidden costs that could be scrimped on :confused:

makes you worry about wat people wont be willing to pay for and sell em! no performance car is cheap nowadays! but i know from my boss who looked at porkers servicing costs are surprisingly good!!

Ohhh I dunno.. May cancel the order for a GT2 RS..  :grin: :grin:

Oh, I don't know, I still think I'd be looking down the N/A GT3 RS route - I'm not sure I could tell you why though? I think I've never really seen the appeal of a 4WD or Turbo (or both) 911.

This is quite amusing too.
