You can't deny the car is something special when you read the articles about it. Personally I think the car is probably the best thing you could buy right now in terms of performance and value. Just now i read on a 3000GT/Stealth forum that the Base GTR's Nurburgring time was knocked down to 7.29 on street tires. You can't deny that's incredible for a car that costs $80,000 USD.

Base GT-R breaks 7:30 on the ring. - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

I just think most people expect the impossible out of the car and then they discard it when it doesn't meet their expectations despite still being an extraordinary car. There isn't a car in this world that can take constant track abuse for an entire year and still be perfect.
