Just can't believe my luck, I was driving westbound at highway 401 when I spotted this red GTR on the collectors lane then a 5 gen GT4 (authentic since its RHD) passed by me on the left lane then after 3 mins a black RHD Supra entered the 401 from 404. It was just one of those rare days where you get to see 3 of your dream cars driving along with you and your jaw ached for dropping a long time while staring and trying to catch up with them. biggrin.gif And yes it wasn't a dream coz I slapped myself and it hurts.

i would kill to see a gtr up close... the gtr would be my next car if i became rich.. i'd have to move to toronto or vancouver since there are only 2 nissan dealers in canada that are able to service these beasts..
this summer had most of the nicest cars i've ever seen: a red ferrari, an audi R8, and a lamborghini countach. i was able to snap a pic of the ferrari.. i'm not sure what model that was though...

man thats unlucky. I see GTR's (mostly r32 and r33) every other day, Supras i see once a week or more, and well gtfours i drive in a ST185 Group A Rallye on a weekly basis (or at least do laps in one) and well i drive mine as much as possible. (and the steering wheel is on the correct side in all of them hehe)

Surely those fellas were members of a club

if you've seen season 11 of top gear, jeremy explains how the rims have some sort of extra lip that helps keep the rubbers from coming off..
i'm guessing they're still the usual 5x114 bolt pattern? anyways i'm more in love with those tires and the pretty exhaust smile.gif

I heard that you can't even modify the GTR in any way because there's some kind of computer in the car where it'll detect and won't even let the car run or something retarded like that, and can only be serviced at dealership and nowhere else.
However TopSecret in Japan already got across the computer solution and have already started building aftermarket parts and upgrade kits for the car.
And Derrick, was the black 5th gen gt-four celica black? Because he's from Windsor eh, dont know about now but he went to the Univ. here last year, used to see it everyday.

Nope.. it was gray. I have seen that gt-4 a couple of time already and gave the driver props. lol

I've seen a couple nice cars in person...I've been to a couple car shows. On the road, not so much...I've seen a couple Ferraris, Lambos, and a lot of Porsches.
