Godzilla Has Arrived In My Neighbourhood!

Look at that machine!  Yes, the Nissan GT-R has now arrived firmly in my neighbourhood.  The four exhaust, 3.6 secs to 60 monster was on a pedestal at a local dealership, alongside a new Nissan 370Z.  Both nice cars, but it was a bit silly to put them side by side when the GT-R (Godzilla) looks so damn impressive.  So, what’s my initital thoughts?

  • The Nissan GT-R is a lot bigger than I thought it was
  • It’s quite a wide car, with huge presence
  • The alloys in black that are wrapped in some serious rubber look better than just about any others I’ve seen on any car
  • The interior shows a speedo with a max of 220mph – oh yes!
  • Angles, angles and angles – the car has a lot of them which gives a menacing look
  • Even the lights are stylish
  • The interior is far better than commentators will have you believe

It was a huge surprise seeing a Nissan GT-R (actually, I saw 3 of them) in the flesh, as it were.  But, it was brilliant and made my day.  Yes, I desperately want one.  I’ve been promised by a relative that if he wins the lottery he’ll buy me the car.  I did hear though that they’re already sold out for a couple of months.  Oh well, I guess I can continue to dream about owning ‘Godzilla’.

This is an awesome, awesome car. If I won the lottery, this is actually the machine I’d buy. You can keep your Ferraris and Lamborghinis, this true Japanese supercar is a match for just about anything else – even the hypercars that cost 5x as much. I got goosebumps seeing it, that’s the power it has.
