I was looking forward to the hellcat but that limited run will mark up the price out of my range.
With the GT-R there is black box data that can be brought out by the dealer. It can tell you how high trans temps got and vdc off launches. Also ask if there were any mods like marrying it to a cobb accessport. i'd shoot for a 1 owner, preferably one that has not been tracked if you are worried about the trans. the trans temps will tell you if the car was tracked because if you drive it hard you can see temps about 275 degrees. nissan has a machine called the consult 3 that will pull up that data. the trans issues are not as bad as people made them out to be. what happened in 09 was the factory set the launch control way to aggressively and they figured out they messed up and had owners dial back the launch. if you got someone who modded this car with over 600 torque and went hard on it without upgrading the ******, i may be a ticking time bomb. with the car being out for while there have been some tuning shops that can work on the trans for relatively cheap depending on your budget of course. shep trans, jacks transmission and ivey tune to name a few.
