Did they say what tires it ran? I didn't read it, because this car is just more ricer boy crap, and real cars have giant pistons and left pedals. But the Z has runflats, right?

If I can't fit my closed fist in the cylinder, then how am I supposed to work on the car properly?

Hello......

McFly..... are you new to the automobile world? 480hp and AWD.

3.3 sounds about right to me.

Wait till the tuners get their hands on it.

They could tune it to run 5 second quarters, but it would still be a Nissan.

I'll pick me up a C6 next year after I get into law enforcement. Don't have the money right now to upgrade...

But if I had what the skyline costs, I would buy something else on principle, a ZO6 or a used Viper. Maybe an old 911.

But not a Nissan.

I suppose, being mentally retarded, you lack the intelligence necessary to recognize and hide your own stupidity. It's a catch 22 of sorts.

And a Corvette is still a Chevy. It's not like as if we're talking Ferrarris here.
