Well I've got a meeting with the accountant tomorrow morning. This year has gone extremely well and the future income for the rest of the year is guaranteed (I'm up tonight doing some of it!) so I'm hoping the GTR itch will be scratched sooner than I'd imagined 
Not that I've driven one yet, didn't see the point if I didn't have the money to actually buy one.

Got the money to buy it outright but using a bit of it for a healthy deposit and then to aid cash flow will give myself a car allowance each month to pay for the finance.

Ive had my 650R 2010 black edition for 3 months now.
Its the quickest thing ive ever driven. 0-100 in 6.5 secs, sub 3 sec 0-60.
And the 650R conversion is not even considered that quick now they have 1000R conversions

This has already had the 650R conversion done on it, 2011 gearbox software upgrade, 1000cc injectors, COBB NIS006 map, SVM Twin air intakes, Full Japspeed Exhaust with Y - Pipe, heat wrapped down pipes, circlips fitted to the gearbox for safer launches, upgraded sub and amp.
Its producing around 650bhp and 620lbs torque.
At the moment no plans to get more power. Its an absolute monster as it is.
I do want to get a full wrap though. Just need to decide on a colour

Private sale though so I'd have to sort the finance out myself prior to falling completely in love.

pretty much what I am on, minus the full intakes, rear section of exhaust and circlips. Makes for quite a beast!!!Matte black looks quite good......

I only drove a standard one a couple of times, but I bought this one with this spec. At the moment I really cant imagine needing more, but then when does anyone actually need 600+bhp lol
The exhaust sounds awesome when over 3000 rpms
Matte black has been done a bit too much now. Maybe looking at Satin black, chrome black or frozen Grey.
Its so had to pick a colour when you can pretty much have any colour going

There's still deals to be had from dealers plus your most prob get some kind of warranty thrown in aswell. Just check the expensive consumables have been done I.E service upto date, brakes and tyres. Tyres run a very negative camber so check the inside edge of all tyres as will look fine in the outside but will be a different story on the inside!
Bell housing issue addressed would be a bonus but not z massive issue if needs to be done, £750 at litchfields.

If you buy from a Nissan dealer they all come with a full 12 month Nissan warranty now which is why I bought from there , and if it needs anything for the next mot they pay for the parts needed.
Great peace of mind on something that could cost you.
Next best thing is the Litchfield warranty which covers a car even if its tuned by them , there warranty is £1200 a year and that includes if the bell housing needs doing
Red is not bad either

red is the best colour! PITA to keep clean though. I have yet to replace tyres based on wear, only due to nails and screws.
