Should I Feel Insulted?

[Nee-san]

Each to their own mate but as I can't afford a Gullwing this was a pretty nice tin can to me with 300kW and a weight of about 1200kegs

Mate that thing is awesome !

Glad you found her a good home.

Life is so much better when you stop caring about what anyone else thinks about you and your decisions.

And things have changed. In the last 6 months driving around for work, I've seen about 6 R32 GTRs, one of those about 5 times, beautiful example, 4 R34 GTRs and not one 33GTR, not one. Interesting side note and a little off the track, but I tend to give a thumbs up to another GTR driver when I'm in mine, and for some reason, the R34 owners reciprocate and sometimes want a chat whereas the 32 owners don't really give a toss. Just something I've noticed when in mine.

What's that about. Funny..

Some people have a Skyline. but fair few have a GTR.

R33s are the most neglected GTR in history. nobody likes them. but i do. should i care what people think!? I don't think so.

cause all r34 drivers drive them for the passsion, they dont just throw out 50k for a car like that unless they are totally loaded tools. the r32 is cheap, easy to come by, people dont mind spending the 14k for a r32gtr, so they will most possibly neglect the car.

(does not apply to every driver)

but most GTR's are hard to come by, i see more r33's than any other skyline, just my own personal prefrence not liking them, but what does that have to do with anyone else liking them??? its not my choice what they want to drive

[noone]

Dude now that i have seen it i totally understand you dilemma that was truly a beautiful example of an awesome car, i hope the new owner understands what an awesome piece of history he or she now has. That said u gotta go with your gut some times an any GTR is a gut decision, resale others opinions dont mean shit when you driving a GTR your, well, driving a GTR

32 drivers think they have the original and therefore the best (cheapest). It's a self defense mechanism and they need to stay in character.

You are kidding aren't you??

Yes, the new owner will look after it as that was important to me.

He will continue where I left off to make this car the best it can be

[R33-RB26DETT]

He's just jealous, and is most probably trying to make himself feel better.

Do you really care what someone who obviously craves the attention of others thinks?

A true car enthusiast doesn't want to get looks from others, they drive the car because they love it.

You made the right choice, and it's not like your car is common. In fact, your car will almost certainly become a classic, given that it's a GTR V-SPEC and Series 3.

If I were you though, i'd keep the original wheels and try to keep as much of the original parts as possible because in the future it will help it to retain it's value.
