Message	there isn't a market here for a $60k nissan. The GTR might (and i only say might) do ok, but I doubt it. Very few people on this board could afford it. The people who are going to spend that money are going to buy a porsche, bmw, or something similar. ********************************************************* Joe GT675RS/Inconel: sold 2003 SB 350z Touring 6MT AIM: hoyatiger81 "You probably never even got you hands dirty working on a car.
