Are these realistic as a daily driver?

Sorry, that struck me as funny - someone asking on an F-Type forum if a 4-seater GTR could be a daily driver...

Anyways, beautiful car and a solid performer. Congrats on the new addition to the family.

No I get it a lot people sat the gtr is to harsh but it really isn't especially after 2015. They made a lot nicer and alot more sound insulation. Mine is 16 brand new. But did have 2500 miles on it owner drove it. But did a PPI and all checked out and Nissan even warrantied the seats cause they had some creases due to the owner being a bigger guy. I saved 35k on it and it has the 4k paint option 4k upgraded interior. So pretty happy it's my favorite color combo on this car

Just curious what you mean by 'warrantied the seats.' I'm looking at a new F-type it only has a few hundred miles on it (its a demo) but the seats are quite creased, compared to others I've seen. I didn't realize there is anything that can be done about this?!

Basically they replaced the entire seat...with new leather padding etc. The seat was 7800 dollars and they covered it.

Default That's Lovely...and the real deal

Colleague at work had a modded red one. Frankly, your silver is far prettier, and hell...almost understated. Rocket ship.

+1 on this ^^
When Nissan first introduced the GT-R back in '09, they pitched it as "the super car you can drive every day" It is, and you could...
I'll admit they're not as pretty as an F-Type, but they move!

I love the color combos and it is very subtle and a much better looking GTR that others I have seen. That was one of the cars in my potential lineup to buy. I ended up with the F Type which was a bit more in my price range. Beautiful car and congrats. And I really love that lift in the garage. I would like one of those as well!
