Conicelli Nissans first GTR

[SpEcRv9]

I have a buddy who works for Conicelli hyundai so today he informed me and my buddy ryan the Nissan dealer got their first GTR so we went and checked it out for like 2 mins, it seemed pretty popular in the shop lol. My buddy was nervous he was gonna get in trouble, so I snapped 2 pics of it before I left...car has a scratch on the bottom from unloading off the truck and a dent in the roof thats getting fixed and still sold for 97k.

[CivEX1021]

[ozthunder]

I can't wait till Exton gets their red one in...

[SpEcRv9]

they have another one comming in but the owner of conicelli is supposedly buying it!

dylan, youd of loved it when we went into the shop the "chosen" mechanic had it on!! idling but still sounded nice!

[SpEcRv9]

p.s. ryan you just gotta know where to post lol....

[GTI_NY]

:prayer::prayer::prayer:

i want one

[CivEX1021]

p.s. ryan you just gotta know where to post lol....

too many rules for me and plus i dont sit on this site constantly like some people.. whatever lol

[Stillen GLE]

did they mark it up like usual. i heard they're not aloud to do that.

[SpEcRv9]

the sticker on the car was 73k....it sold for 97k so i guess they have a little bit of a markup...

east coast supposedly has a 20-30k markup and west coast supposedly has like a 40k-60k markup...

if you're in the market for a GTR 25k more prob wont mean much to your pockets...and its still a bargain under 100k IMO.

I dont see why they wouldnt be allowed to mark up the car, usually you just wouldnt do it because it wouldnt make sense cause noone is gonna buy a 50k 350z...or a 40k sentra....

people would gladly spend 97k for a car that can out preform cars double and triple the price....

why? you cant even modify the thing without having to worry about a sensor. from my understanding Cobb Performance is still trying to crack some codes on it. but they have the japan version.

[MTuning]

what car wouldn't u have to worry about sensors?

[Stillen GLE]

dude it has sensors where you wouldnt believe, like for instance the wheels you cant even upgrade them without you having to plug a sensor in or something. i remember reading this somewhere. i wouldnt never pay anything over 40K for a Nissan Iam sorry theres no way id pay 90G to 100G if not more for a Skyline. when all cars do is lose value.

[marshallpre1]

Sweet, maybe I'll call my nearby nissan dealership to see if they have received theirs.

well obviously its been done or i wouldnt of seen the big tuning companies put on aftermarket wheels. sensors are inevitable, isn't part of tuning being creative..there's ways around everything. With your logical, why modify a car at all? or buy a new car? its a car for enthusiast. we love cars and i rather get something i'll be happy with than just settle with a joe-blow run of the mill car. I'm not disagreeing with you, its got a big price tag but if you can afford it why not.

its amusing you talk like that when the GTR is your avatar

[Red Devil]

Talk to some ZR-1 guys. Apparently their mark up has the price going all the way to $400k. The thing you're talking about is a TPMS thats probably integrated into the OBD system. Alls you have to do is swap over the TPMS.

your retarded

really Iam retarted. who the **** are you anyway?

[pinacup7]

Take it to the max!!!

[Stillen GLE]

how much hp does your focus have.

It had 278 at the wheels but I dunno.. I dont own it anymore. Its probaly blown up by now. It had all these weird crazy looking sensor things so I gave up on it

[Menacing_Gc8]

its nice, but for that much.. I'd rather buy a house or 2.. and From what I have heard you cant touch the engine AT ALL.. do anything to the engine aftermarket and it voids the warranty along with the fact that the car wont run. And truthfully, why would you want to. the thing has everything one could hope for. Yeah some of us have a problem with keeping our hands off the engine or out of the engine bay, but this car completely shuts down and wont work at all if you so much as change the air filtration system out ( ie for a CAI or Short Ram) from what I have heard.and I also heard that Nissan paid for their A techs to go to school to learn about the GTR because its engineering and fine tuning are supposedly top notch on this car.

Anyways, nice pics. I really like it in black.. it looks nicer IMO than the other colors.

thank you at least someone knows what Iam talking about.

[SlideWayzS13]

Not worth the 100k now...if you are smart you would wait it out for the first 2-3 years at max then pick one up for 60k-ish. If I had the money, that would def be my game plan! But for now I'll stick to my stroker kit Sr20

$50k houses is something to look forward to? :-p jk jk, on the serious side im sorry but i still have to disagree i dont think it should sway you from this car, not trying to argue just car talk, most dealers cannot void your warranty due to modifications unless it is a direct relation to the problem..how many dealer will up hold to it i can't say, its been pretty good with the mazda side tho. As ive said, this car has been handling upgrades pretty friendly and the aftermarket support is already out there. Don't forget its been out for a while overseas and a handful to a few big name tuners. It is also computer-based, which can and will be cracked. I'm sure they're going to train their techs, its a new line of vehicle so they should definitely get familiar with it especially with the sticker price. Ask yourself would someone take their corvette to the hilly billy shop down the road to do the kind of work a tech do?

[DPancoast]

lol, I've been in that shop so many times.....

thats cool that they got one. Im still trying to check one out/sit in it.

[frosti108]

did they even get rid of that nismo 350z they had?

[SpEcRv9]

did they even get rid of that nismo 350z they had?

yeah lol...they sold that like 2 mos ago...it sat there for a while

I'm sure they're going to train their techs, its a new line of vehicle so they should definitely get familiar with it especially with the sticker price.

only one tech from each dealer that gets the GTR is allowed/knows how to work on it....they had to go through a whole program to learn how to work on it....those dudes are pretty lucky..

Price isn't swaying from Weather I want it or not.. its Priorities personally for me.. house first then expensive car., but that kind of money could be put down on a nice house is what i meant.. and Again,. from what I heard, the NEW motor it comes with you cant do a thing or the car shuts off completely.. it wont start or anything. atleast thats what i heard.

[ozthunder]

<=== already sat in one :)

BTW, whoever said 400K for a ZR1, well, you made me spit up my coffee. I've heard, at the MAX, 160K. At the MAX. Unless it's some Barrett Jackson auction, 400K will never happen.

i hear what you're coming from, for the ones buying these cars, money really isn't going to be a factor. there's no way the car can be that sensitive especially since they have already started modifing them. It is the ones that aren't sure what they are doing that is having problems and like with any car you can't just throw on parts and hope it works without doing the proper research.

[ozthunder]

Yup. First gen cars always have issues, but a thing that's r/d'd like this will assuredly have less. Hell, there's even a diff between Jap-spec and US-spec.

[shuttlegoose]

yeah the car was picked up today because i had to detail it and make sure all the scratches were off and stuff. it sounds nasty.

[SpEcRv9]

i only heard it at idle, but still sounded pretty good...id love to hear this thing WOT down ridge sometime soon lol.....know if the new owner is local?

[shuttlegoose]

i have no idea, the guy got on it driving it into the detail bay haha.

[ozthunder]

At least he didn't get his front end taken off..

[omgjacki]

Awesome, I didn't even think they were here yet. All the one's that are were imported so they're RHD. I guess that means Nissan started production of the LHD version, then. I didn't think it was happening until next year.

I'd like to go check this out but I'm sure it's behind a velvet rope and all so I won't bother. I know some people at Sloane Nissan so if they get one I'll be sure to share with you guys.

[smokey240sx]

time to go to the dealer for a test drive.:mrgreen:

[upperguy]

time to go to the dealer for a test drive.:mrgreen:

yeah good luck with that

[ozthunder]

time to go to the dealer for a test drive.:mrgreen:

lol considering it's sold, I'm sure that's going to happen.

The amount of legal hurdles required for that isn't worth it.

[omgjacki]

The only way you're getting in that car on the road is if the GM himself takes you out and even then, he'll be driving it. I highly doubt these will be available for test drives to just anyone.

[05OCsrt-4]

time to go to the dealer for a test drive.:mrgreen:

yeah, they'll ask for a credit check, then a deposit, then pay stubs to show you can afford it, good luck finding one that isn't sold and that you have a .05% to actually sit in the car nonetheless test drive it

Yea they usually ask for a min of 20K...most are sold, but only 70% of total allotments are sold.

No way in hell you're getting a test drive unless you know/are the owner.

[DropTopChevy]

Most sensorss can be solved with the right Ohm resistor. Still a sexy car though to stay on topic.
