You haven't seen a GT-R in Calgary before or a premium model??? What is the difference?

[C4S]

It is a nice car .. but I won't call it "rare" ..

Um .. it is rare in red, not the right colour for that car.

[Phenix]

That is just a normal GTR. nice car though. the 2012's should be awesome

Man that thing is overpriced and has not stood still, such high kms. Tons of better values to be had on eBay. A couple of months back I saw a GTR with winter tires parked at a Tim's in the NE, seemed very odd and abusive in my mind.

This 2010 has less than 6,000 miles and you can buy it today for 72K US.

It's a Nissan not a Reventon.

Agreed. That GTR is 2 years old and over 40k klms? and still 80k? and it's ugly in red... GL selling that. Wonder how much warranty is left? White or Black... only colors I would get a GTR in.

[chkolny541]

certainly pricey, and 40,000km on a 2009 gtr is effing unreal, must have been the previous owner DD.

[Skyline_Addict]

i browse nagtroc.org every once in a while and 2009 GTRs can be had for mid 60s USD easily and sometimes in the low 60s. and these are cars with around 8k miles on them, not 40k km.

[rage2]

I was thinking of getting a GT-R as a winter car, but they're just not dropping in price at all in Canada, regardless of kms. The used prices are high and it's still selling here, pretty crazy.

Not sure how tough it is to import one from the US.

Is that a white one?

[GenerationX]

Sunridge had 2 2012's but they got sold already, both white too.

Used prices should remain strong as sales have been pretty slow (<1000 last year in the US). Porsche 911 for example outsells the GTR 6 to 1 in the US which just goes to show that raw performance isn't enough against esteemed competition. If they aren't even moving 1000 GTR's a year in the US you would have to imagine that Nissan moves less than 100 GTR's in Canada annually which should keep the resale value strong due to limited availability.

That mileage is really high for what Sunridge is asking but some rich kid will buy it.

That mileage is crazy high for that price. Even half would be too much, but you're right... someone will buy it with emotion and get a shitty deal.

All GTR's Sold in Canada are premium models.

[BigDannyCool]

there's one at brasso nissan for around the same price with about 4000km

[Orbie]

For 2009-2011 all are premium, but for 2012 all will be Black Editions. For some reason Nissan Canada has decided to only sell the top line model in Canada (love the red trim interior though). If you see a Premium 2012 running around in Canada it was imported. I know there are a few in Canada already. Can't blame people who import though, the price difference is insane with the dollar the way it is now.

Another reason why the resale is holding strong here, aside from limited availability is that Nissan raises the price on each consecutive GT-R MY. In 2009 I believe it was $81,900, 2012 MSRP was announced today in Canada at $109,900 (vs. 95,100 in the States). If you live in a province with HST you're looking at close to 130K all in.

Are you fisting me? $80K for that thing?!?

40k km on a 2yr old car isnt bad, thats only 20k a year. I see a lot of 07 cars with over 100k km! Now that is a lot in such a short time span.

Havent been following nissan cars as of late but generally how mamy kms can a gtr engine handle in its lifespan? 300,000? Nissan engines are up there with hondas right?
