With a full front end of NISSAN GTR conversion, it looks too mean rolling down the road. Been waiting for all of Sam's parts to come in to finally be able to shoot this beast, and seeing it all done in person is truly amazing.

Enjoy the video folks

What no sausage or bacon on the pie?

I just don't get excited about this car anymore, it's a 10 yr old design that was never truly "sexy" to begin with.

I've always thought the car was a beast but it never would be in my garage, for that kind of cash I'd look elsewhere. The video was interesting in that the music clearly shows who the target market for the car is.

Meh

[kprocivic]

The people that talk shit on the gtr are the same people who talked shit when it spanked everything a decade ago. It is an old car now but it still performs with the best of them, peeps just cant get over it's a nissan. An old nissan but a nissan nonetheless.

[TeinBMW]

oh gosh..I cant imagine that smell of pizza being embedded in that car for weeks. I usually put my pizza in my trunk and even that bothers me.

I don’t think he said the “N” word enough.

Yeah, I don't understand the odd hate either. I would have owned one by now, but for the fact they don't come in a manual. Total deal killer for me, but it's still an amazing machine even after all these years.

Ruined.

in my opinion the R34 is way 'sexier'

I think it looks okay. Not sure we needed all those N-Bombs though. I also can't help but feel these types of videos are just rich people making fun of those who can't afford these cars. Pizza delivery? And running from the police? Yeah, I remember listening to NWA in grade school when it was cool to make believe that running from the police was a good life decision. In real life, I'd want this driver's car impounded and his drug money confiscated.

Not when Lambo Uber drivers are around

No. I actually tried to want one more than once. Every time I drove a GT-R, I just could not get into it. Felt too disconnected from the road an an actual driving experience. That clunky trans annoyed the shit of me too.

Maybe a highly modded one would make it fun for me.

I am sorry if you feel this way!

I feel ya buddy, weight to ratio wise its still insane how it outperforms top hyper cars. If tuned correctly it can beat any car around the hood, correct me if I am wrong.

I'm 40. I've been in the car scene for over two decades. I think the car looks cool. I appreciate the time and effort people put into their cars just like the next enthusiast, even if it isn't necessarily my style. However this is a stigma that we put upon ourselves that seems unnecessarily narcissistic and masturbatory. I've seen it all. The posturing braggadocios nature of a culture that is steeped in the idea of showing off a material object is bound to have knuckleheads who burn out at car meets, rev their engines, and exaggerate kill stores all for the sake of attention. We've all been attention whores at one point in our lives, it's human. So what's the difference between this and a washed up Hollywood star who's mangled her face and tits with plastic surgery slathered behind layers of makeup who finally does a nude scene way past her prime for the sake of capturing that same attention she did years prior? Not much. It's vanity, narcissism, and pride: things that make us act a fool. There comes a time when going to the exact same lengths to get attention goes from being cool to being desperate. I'm at that age, so posturing aside, I like to drive, I like tasteful mods, and I like real people who don't need to front. I like the car in the video, I just don't like that the video needs the N word, a veiled condescension towards the working class, and glorified criminality to be attractive to an audience already willing to whore themselves out for attention. It encourages them to do the same and to one up the last. Can't we just appreciate the car?

This social media age we live in has ruined the world.

[FlaPatsFan]

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the guy in the video white?!?! I just don’t understand choice of song...it ruined the whole thing.

[xQx]

Well, that video seemed totally devoid of any substance. Thanks for 3 minutes of black rap and watching a car cruise down dark streets at night.

I think you'll get a more positive impression of a GTR out of this video, which isn't even about a GTR:
