few interesting maintence facts about the new GTR

http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothrea...-about-the-gtr

-Can only launch the car 15 times before the transmission gives out. The most Nissan has got was 34 launches.
-The fluid lists at 80 dollars a quart. It costs dealerships 49.99 a quart. The car takes 10 quarts.
-The warranty depends on the driving, there is a black box in it just like an airplane.
-Customers have to sign a waiver stating they will not complain about brake or transmission noise.
-The brakes MUST be replaced at the same time, cost for replacing 6500.
-If something goes wrong other than an oil change at the dealership, a special team needs to be called and your outta a car for a while.

sounds like fun.

Welcome to the wonder world of Disposable Transmissions, thanks Nissan! This is an actual page from the owners manual.


And here is that special $80 a quart fluid.

What's funny about it is though if you can afford a GT-R then none of this stuff really matters, already have to be in da money since Nissan only allowed up to $40-50k financed for the GT-R, the rest of the balance had to be paid at the time the vehicle was sold. They def. wanted to make sure they got some money in their pockets.
