Glad that someone finally mentioned the 800lb gorilla in the room the GTR will be:

1) more exclusive than your 911 - therefore more "exotic"

2) provide better performance than the 997TT - YES it's faster

3) you can purchase it not lease

4) wife can drive it


Done...

 

It's a little out of the price range, but have you considered an R8?

 

This is silly. You said something negative about every recommendation. You're tripping.

 

Lesser number of cars doesnt make it exotic. Nothing exotic about a GTR .
Also a 997TT is more reliable when modded than a GTR , plus its much faster.

To the OP, buy a F360 , the belts cost is overrated, talk to the real owners its not that bad. Let me know i have a friend who owns 360 in the NW suburbs , he might give you real scoop.

 

motorcycle doesnt kill human's error does.

 

U have pictures? I love the Supra, what a classic

 

Still just as dead!!!

 

appearantly i cant talk about it because some mod is on a post deleting spree.

lets just avoid the topic altogether. like i said before just pm me your addy if you want pictures.

hope this doesnt get deleted too. im trying to not make it sound like a for sale ad.

 

I usually respond by PM only, however, since you elected to post this openly, please reread your post:

Why would you post a message about "a guy selling" a car on this on a thread about suggestions for a sports car under $70K unless there is intention for a sale. The term "selling" implies a sales transaction.

You are violating the forum for sale rules:

-DO NOT post sale threads for friends, relatives, pets, mortal enemies, ANYONE without prior moderator approval.
-"Asking for forgiveness is easier than asking for permission" does not apply here.
-Violation of this rule will receive a 1 week time out.

I elected not to give you a warning or infraction. The other forum member asked you to post pictures, you asked the other member to send you a PM for an email. As a moderator I made the assumption of a attempted sale. If you would like me to undelete the messages, I'd be happy to, provided that this is not a for sale post.

 

u can still die in a car, jet, truck.....

 

The Nissan GTR reminds me of the Mitsubishi 3000 VR4. I remember reading about how its twin turbo awd was going to change the sports car world and Porsche and Corvette should move aside. Seems like the ground hog day?

you paint with such broad strokes.

i mentioned it was for sale since they dont have supras at the showroom anymore. the op was asking for options so i was providing a specific example. sale ads have contact info, asking prices and pictures. i only made mention of the car as an example of what was available for the OP. i would dare say most supras dont come with 16k original miles these days.

also notice that the person asking for pictures is not the OP. its not my car and if i posted pictures it would more closely resemble a for sale ad so i opted to do it via pm if this guy wanted pictures i woulda gave him a link.

also thanks for the quote from the rules which i read already. i was following those rules that is why i didnt post the pictures.

back to the OP's topic, i still think a supra woud be a great choice since they meet your requirments as you desribed. they are truly great cars and actually handle very well in the twisties too. they are great fun and less than 70k. you can get them in auto or manual and they respond well to modification. they also hold their value. the car i just described is not for sale however by me or by any of the following known by me; friends, relatives, pets, mortal enemies.

 

Im kind of liking the new BMW Z4 sdrive 35i. More HP, plus a great looking roadster. Looks like a blast. Also the MB SLK55 is a fun car.

 

A GTR is exotic??!! this is news to me.
