    looks like a more expensive car now.......and I like the mirrored image in the background

    A definite improvement!

    Well, you know, I don't hate that, surprisingly.

    that gets rid of my least favorite part of the GTR.

    I approve.

    Huh? No they didn't - Gnikrap was most definitely "on" in that picture!

    I guess its less obvious on the convertible, at a glance it looked to be off.

    It's not JDM y0! if it's not RHD. What's the easiest way to do a RHD conversion? Flip the image.

    I like it!

    I want to see some other angles, but so far I approve heartily.

    actually it is RHD.. look at the license plate. Only the background is backwards.. unless that sign is made to be read in your mirror when backing up?

    The license plate does throw it, but the gas filler is reversed also, suggesting a flipped image. I don't know. I like your idea of the read the sign in the mirror.

    Love it! Even my wife, while walking by, said "oooohh...that's cool".

    spiffy, I'll wait 20 years for them to get into challenge budget.

    Even if it's a Photoshop job, it's hot.

    Now, for the question that no one asked: Does it look better than the GTX1? If it somehow sounds better, I will eat my hat.

    Interesting that it's wearing a Calif. 562 plate--standard issue for a Nissan fleet vehicle.

    If it's a photoshop job - that background would be really easy to touch up - then it might simply be based on a picture of a fleet car.

    But I want it to be real And I'm not really a GTR sort of person.

    Aha, it is Photoshop. Thanks for the tip on the plate, David. Look at what I found on the Google.

    Let's see what happens if I overlay them. Watch the hard points of the car, such as the rear plate, the spoiler, taillights, mirrors and the little vent behind the front wheel. Perfect match. The pavement matches too, but the car was lowered so it doesn't line up anymore.

    Whoever did this was good. Even the cut line of the bumper got moved.

    ^^^^^^
    I can not agree with you, I do not think the building looks better with the roof over the opening.
