That is for sure! In a different life I almost went down the path of nurse anesthetist. Looking back, I probably should have.

im telling you its amazing what kind of income they have.. i come from a family of doctors and they all complain about heathcare and malpractice insurance.. if she becomes a nurse anesthetist she doesnt pay that on her own.. the hospital or doctors she works with pays that and she just banks $$$

Nice acquisition man. I was on the fence on whether I liked those cars at all or not, but after being in one and driving it a bit, I'm all in.

Is that the special silver that cost extra new?

I really like that car a lot. It is a work of art and I bet it performs good.

I really have to be honest and say that the line between my Evo and the GT-R is massive.. The GT-R is a car i can just get into and drive and forget about everything else.. no worries about shifting or other little things that drive me insane when i drive the Evo.. but when it comes to power the GT-R is just nasty and going around a turn im glad my driver window is up cause my head would pop off and go right out the open window!!! but the Evo is so untamed that I miss that more than i thought.. Maybe once i mod the GT-R ill feel different

Can you give us a review on the power/handling of the GTR? Not sure if you remember what it's like to be in a near stock EVO haha.... but just a basic review on your impressions of the car?

Congrats on owning one of the most wantedr cars here in the states without going after exotics.

i can tell you right now that as a stock car the GT-R pulls hard.. I took my friend for a ride last weekend and we both agreed that from a stand still threw 2nd gear the car pulls so hard the it almost blacks you out.. its insane type power.. as for overall handling, its an animal.. i cant say that ive pushed the car too hard around turns since im not sure where the breaking points are but once spring and summer roll around im sure ill be a bit more aggressive with corners..
