Here are some of the reasons for NPD:

    * An oversensitive temperament at birth
    * Overindulgence and overvaluation by parents
    * Valued by parents as a means to regulate their own self-esteem
    * Excessive admiration that is never balanced with realistic feedback
    * Unpredictable or unreliable caregiving from parents
    * Severe emotional abuse in childhood
    * "Excessive praise for good behaviors or excessive criticism for poor behaviors in childhood"

I dont like them , as they are to euro looking for my taste but thats the market they are trying to conquer..

500HP out of the box and unsurpassed handling make them a great car...they are finding teething problems on them which happens with all cars..

If it was me Id wait a couple of years and see what the after market tuners can do with them,,no one knows the limits of the standard stuff yet and really you dont buy a gtr to keep it at 500horses  ;D

Haltech in Aussie have already managed to blow one up lol

Pass this on to your Uncle if he is interested http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/108085-oh-dear-r35-engine-blown.html

I had a look at some aftermarket parts already available for it..and damm 14k usa $ for coilover suspension  :o

Ill wait a couple more years and move up to an r34 gtr ..the 32 does me good for now though.

Yeah, i'm not sure about them. They look ok i guess but yeah as you said, wait a few years a get one thats had a few mods done to it.

I'm pretty sure my uncle won't get one. He races RX-7's, but he's got a Porsche GT3 and is a member of the Porsche owners club and they do track days every few months. So he wants a car that is very much a focused track car but is still street legal. He said that a guy from the owners club is selling a GT3 RS, so he will probs get that.
No doubt about it...

Yes they are. Especially when it comes to their gas usage.
