So around this time of year, my dad and I always like to go to a couple of dealerships, posing as potential buyers in order to score test drives in cars that others might not get. In the past we've driven Aston Martins, Ferrari's and Maserati's. Yesterday, we might of out-did ourselves...

Very nice. I'm surprised fredneck nissan allowed someone to touch the car, let alone drive it. Sidenote, Lillypons is fantastic for flat-out runs.
 
Sly work with the test-drive ruse. :D

Any comments on the car everyone loves to hate? Would be interesting to read a real-world opinion.

If the internet has taught me anything about the new gtr it should have...
A) Driven itself with no user input
B) Destroyed the transmission before it made it round the block and
C) Be slow and constantly get overtaken by porsches
:p

But seriously, a mini-review would be awesome.

Busted!!!


Yeah Frederick Nissan didn't have any trouble throwing my Dad the keys. Helps when you roll up in a C6 Vette and are talking about DB-9s and whatnot. (all part of the act) <_<
 
But why is this in photography?
 
I figured since it was a video it was the appropriate place... where else would it go?
 
In the NSFW section because it is car porn :p

No idea mate, but Quiky might be right to put it in the NSFW section. But it's more of an engineering porn the GT-R.

Its Dad's baby...


 
Damn, this sounds like fun. Nice vid.

I wish my dad did stuff with me. *childhood trauma-angst* :-x I have to go and test drive cars on my own now.

LOL, thanks bud - call it literary license for the sake of keeping it simple... :lol:
 
Is it really that difficult to get a test drive in a GTR? I mean isn't it the affordable supercar. I feel like rolling up in any above-standard car should get you a ride.

But still, kudos to you for all the other cars you've gotten keys to!

... oh yeah ... a Testdrive in a Datsun. That clearly outclasses any of those other manufacturers and their mass produced euro-tat. :rolleyes:

That?s like saying you?re glad not to have gone out on a date with this lady ...

ROFL!!! Nice... I was referring to speed, not class or beauty. Read the review I put up and you'll understand. ;)
 
What do you and your father do if they require a background check or even some money down first?
Do you just decline or do you go with it?
