Ricardo Patrese- Takes wife around the track!

2010 Nissan GT-R V Spec

It has only been about 6 weeks since the launch of the Nissan GT-R and now we already have pictures and some spy info on what is next to come from the Nissan GTR. Check out the link below from Edmunds and let me know your thoughts.

Nissan GTR V-Spec

What could you do with 2 Million?

All I can say is WOW! This car is a thing of beauty, but for that sticker price it should fly or at least come with a jet pack…

Top speed of around 225 mph. Put the top back and the Grand Sport will reach just over 250 mph.

These incredible stats are made possible by the Veyron’s 8-liter W16 engine, equipped with four turbo chargers that send 1,001 horsepower to all four wheels. With enormous amounts of torque, the Veyron Grand Sport can reach 62 mph (100 kph) in just 2.5 seconds.

 All that performance and exclusivity comes at a high price. The Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport will be priced at 1.4 million euros (just over $2 million) when it becomes available next March. For that one buyer who  needed to be first on the list, the right to the first Veyron Grand Sport was auctioned at the Pebble Beach Auction presented by Gooding & Company. With the amount over the asking price going to charity, the winning bid for the new Grand Sport was $3.19 million.

I love personal license plates

I saw this license plate today on my way in to the office.  If this plate was on any other vehicle you may think the owner is a postal worker.  It just so happens that this plate is on a supercharged G35 Coupe, so it makes sense.

Nissan GTR- First Drive

Today has to be one of my most proud days as a Nissan/Infiniti dealer. I have been waiting for years to be able to drive the much talked about Nissan GTR and today is that great day. The Nissan store brought over this red beauty and tossed me the intelligent key to take it for a spin. Needless to say, I did not hesitate to put it through the tests…at least as much as I could on Airport Freeway between Fort Worth and Dallas. Luckily no cops spotted me in my fast test drive.
I must say that this has to be the finest track ready street car sold today. From the track tires and set up, to the Grand Tourismo style computer, this car has it all. Not to mention the looks are amazing and photos don’t do this car justice. You have to see one in person. Not that you will see one on the showroom, but maybe on the street. Just don’t stare. It’s not nice, as mom used to say. No, go ahead and stare. You know you want to. I will do a track review soon…
