Third R35 GTR Bites the Dust ...

We’ve seen a Hong-Kong delivered car (http://www.nagtroc.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=22135) cop a hiding and a Japanese home market car (http://www.themotorreport.com.au/3376/another-dented-r35-gt-r/)suffer a similar fate, which begs the questions, is the GT-R, despite its electronic trickery still a little tricky for the inexperienced?
Before crashing GT-R’s gets completely out of hand we’d like to call for some decorum. If your new car is better than you are, go and brush up on your driving skills in something that doesn’t matter. Something that the rest of us wouldn’t consider trading a kidney on.
You could live a very content life with one kidney and a GT-R, even a slightly dented one.

Videos I've seen they've dialed the oversteer out of them, which is a shame, I loved ATTESA oversteer! :D

Simple reason... Oversteer = slow.

I think any performance car is tricky for the inexperienced? These cars are designed as road vehicles with trackability. They are far more dangerous and easier to loose control of in different situations, this is why according to my old insurance company, you are 11 times more likely to die in a car accident with a performance car than non-performance cars. Its much higher if your young.

I find the FD difficult to handle at times, especially in the wet, when delicate acceleration is needed to stop the car spinning out of control. For this reason, i agree with the new Victorian P plater laws which make it illegal for inexperienced drivers to drive such cars.

What the hell? I know i wouldnt want to give my kidney away for a GTR. In about 10 years time they will be abused, old and technology will of moved on, but you will be dying on a kidney related problem. In the end, its just a car, and not a very interesting one at that, looks very bland to me.
