Looks like a mid life crisis lol

[plastikosmd]

no, she just traded her IS-F in and wanted something faster and AWD. Looking forward to midlife crisis

[NOSBIGSHOT]

I like her style !!!!

[Xpress]

I would be.

Unless I could "test drive" :naughty:

[plastikosmd]

I get it tue/thur and every other weekend, never had a car that had a 'launch mode'
Turn on traction control and R mode
hold brake with left foot
throttle quick to floor and let up, engine will tach up
3 seconds to release break to launch
must have seatbelt on for mode to work

[Bustos82]

I sure would be mad....

[Mr_RPM]

That is actually my dream car, if I had 123 billion dollars that would still be in my top 10 cars to buy first and probably one of the daily drivers.
That car is alot of bang for the buck.

get the launch control all figured out and some practice and let me know how she does against anything...even a ZR1 corvette would be a good race.
thats a car right there....

IIRC its 0-60 in 3.3 seconds
around a 10 second run on a 1/4 mile
pretty good for a factory stock Nissan
retail is what.....70 grand?

Thats pretty good if you ask me. (speed Vs. Price for a factory car)

[dcreel]

Beautiful car. Definitely one of my favorites.

[plastikosmd]

2.9 or so in launch mode, heard 2.7, who the heck cares at that speed. has G force both accel and brake along with lateral g force gauges, 3.5 or so to 60 in non launch mode, base for 2012 is about 20k more than that with a few options, didnt ask her

[plastikosmd]

harleys are fine, tho if I was to buy a bike it would be a vmax, sure some may out perform it but love the look

[Chazz of Blades]

New Vmax.

0-100 in 2.8 seconds. AND THEY CAN BE SUPERCHARGED!!!!!


Almost 200 ponies........

[JayBone]

Depends if you just walked in from work and asked who's car it was and she said hers then......I'd be pissed!!

[plastikosmd]

Naw, she just said, let's go look but grab the plates just in case. Wow, Vmax iz still a beast, was always my favorite

[dksix]

I'd rent a box van and head south west on a trike shopping spree = everyone is happy!

I dont know if there still having problems or not.

[Xpress]

^Sounds like it's only when launching. But who repeatedly launches their car anyways? Not even in drag racing would you be cycled so fast that you are forced to launch repeatedly.

[plastikosmd]

Launch issues were in the older models. If u look at the real numbers it was in the 1% range. 0-60 in the high 2's is tough on anything. Car is a lease and u cannot launch without vdc and r now. ( directions are even in the manual now, not sure about before)

[zzmegad]

looks like a sweet ride, I prefer american manufacturers when it comes to automobiles, so ida slapped her and told her to buy a chevy...j/k..well about the slapping part

[Chazz of Blades]

Top Gear reveiwed the GT-R, and Jeremy Clarkson loved it!

Ya,,, buddy!!!:beer if you ever do I know a mad tuner ,, thats all he does...;)

[plastikosmd]

Appreciate it, I am sorta shellshocked on motorcycles. Call me a wimp but most of what I deal with, this time of year,are the results of not keeping the shiny side up.
