I enjoyed my hour of being able to drive one last year. I can only imagine how great it would be to have more power! :tup: ---

Sweet cars… but if I had the money, I would never buy one after reading the complaints on their forums about dealers, warranties, shit breaking, etc. But I would LOVE to drive one. 🙂 ---

My 3 friends with them have had no issues with dealers, warranty or shit breaking. Only one of them has blown a trans and it was covered. ---

They lost the lawsuit and have to cover the transmissions under warranty now (correct me if I’m wrong). How does the AWD compare to other systems? Still 😢 about no stick shift. ---

> [@MPD47](#): > > Ok so I just put 60 miles on this now that it is upgraded, makes 580whp now on pump gas, absolutely insane. It still drives just like stock around town, but it’s an absolute demon on throttle, and surprisingly the traction control is still very very good with the power levels increased. Looking forward to tracking this, possibly at VIR, later this spring. Gonna be with the GTR owners club at VIR? ---

I missed the date last week (didn’t know early enough) but yes, that’s the plan. Bastinado the AWD actually works unlike most of the other garbage systems out there. The power transfers to help you through the corner, it really drives like RWD with a FWD assist. Btw, this car sucks when hungover. All the fun stuff I enjoy (gearbox noise, the differentials grinding, etc) just HURTS after a long night. ---

So, this car is a hilarious blast in the snow. Unfortunately the drivetrain is a total piece of shit and I overheated the trans 3 times before I called it quits. 2/3/4th gear drifts in the snow storm in CT on our way home from Maine to Philly. ![[http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs746.ash1/163802\_721918727026\_10502510\_39172121\_3706148\_n.jp](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs746.ash1/163802_721918727026_10502510_39172121_3706148_n.jp) g]([http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs746.ash1/163802\_721918727026\_10502510\_39172121\_3706148\_n.jp](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs746.ash1/163802_721918727026_10502510_39172121_3706148_n.jp) g) ![[http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs794.ash1/168476\_721918687106\_10502510\_39172119\_6589077\_n.jp](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs794.ash1/168476_721918687106_10502510_39172119_6589077_n.jp) g]([http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs794.ash1/168476\_721918687106\_10502510\_39172119\_6589077\_n.jp](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs794.ash1/168476_721918687106_10502510_39172119_6589077_n.jp) g) ---
