Could you scan and post up that bill of sale receipt? Omit the personal info, of course. I find this hard to believe. Generally, when you buy a new car, the salesperson sits down with you and talks you through the warranty coverage and has you sign an acknowledgement that the info was made known to you. You also sign a bunch of other things (service contract, if you buy one, knowledge of payments to made, knowledge that consumables like brake linings and tires are not covered under warranty, etc.).

Are you sure about that? Check the dates here:

Since the car was sold in the US (prior to 2010), page 6 of the owner's manual has explicitly said driving with VDC off (in cases other than for rocking the car in mud/snow) could also lead to warranty denial.

Another teenager without the stones to sign their neg rep

 

They put these same stickers on the Gen 2 ACR's but I don't remember anyone being turned down/voiding their warranty when they adjusted their suspension settings. Most did becase the factory 1100lb rear spring was VERY harsh on the street.

 

+rep for calling out teh neg rep troll!

 

Thank you sir.

I happen to like Harleys, and it's OK if other folks don't, it's not their checkbook.

 

Not sure how many GT-R's are out of warranty periods...

How many do you know of?

(I think the answer is 0 - maybe I'm off by a little, but I think it's 0)

It's pretty cool to see clairvoyance here. That's why I joined.

 

This thread has moved way off topic. Several of you are making meaningful contributions. Several of you are not. If you are instigating this, you will be given time off this forum.

 

What do you mean by 0 out of their warranty period??

Mike

 

First GT-R was delivered in the US on July 7, 2008.

It comes with a 3 yr warranty.

So the earliest a GT-R can be out of warranty will be July 6, 2011... Which, to my knowledge, hasn't happened yet.

 

So Nissan gives a 3yr Unlimited mileage warranty??

I didnt think so.. I bid on 1 with 45k miles.. You think it had warranty???

Porsche, there is no substitute!

 

Interesting thread. Great debate. This is just my personal opinion, but I think that this is great for all high end sports cars. Believe me, all these threads will make their way to the various manufacturers email inbox at some point. Increased competition breeds further investments in R&D. This translates to accelerated rate of improvement in the products. I'm all for Nissan or whomever nipping at Porsche's heels. It will just improve the breed. The manufacturers will all have to compete that much harder for your $

Off topic, but someone mentioned the Radical earlier. I HIGHLY recommend you do some laps in one if you ever get a chance. It's an outstanding experience for a seasoned driver...

 

So THAT must be the one with all of the issues that aren't being fixed without a warranty, like everybody's Porsche has been, after their warranties expire.

 

The point is that Nissan aren't the only ones with "despicable tactics" when it comes to waivers and denial of warranty due to tracking, as it was claimed in this thread. Dodge have some legal defense if they wanted to deny coverage since they have the owner's signature on the contract. This should be all the more abhorrent to some, since the ACR is a model specifically designed and marketed above all other Vipers as a track-ready vehicle.

 

No actually not at all.. I just wanted to point out what you spoke as fact was not so factual.. i am not sure all the other stated Facts you made about Nissan and warranty is accurate either..

Regardless ill own both soon but still I dont care how fast the nissan is around the ring, i always find my way around the comparable GTR's when i am on the track..
