Default Hello and Good-bye!

Road Rage here. Haven't checked in here in a long while - been busy with a project I mentioned a year or so ago when I took my "leave of absence" from S2KI. Well, it is completed, and so am I - retiring from my Company after 32 years!! Went out with a bang, so to speak. No, not THAT kind.

I'd like to say "I'm baaaccck", and nothing's changed, but that would be a lie. Truth is, I am a traitor, of sorts.

Yesterday, I put a DP down on a 2009 Nissan GT-R. I know, boo, hiss, I suck and all that!

I have my car lsited in the Cars for Sale section at a very reasonable price, so check it out for yourself or anyone looking for a mint beauty with some really nice aftermarkets parts, maintained by the ol' Rage Man himself!

If you'll have me, I'd like to stay in touch, and let you know what I think of the GT-R when it gets here, likely in the first wave in June or so.

And amazingly, I pulled it off at MSRP!!!

Hope all my friends here are well, and your cars running great! It will soon enough be prime S2000 weather here in the South.

Anyway, I am running on - check out my ad, make constructive comments if you like, and take care - many fine people on this website, no doubt. Hope in my small way I have left a legacy worthy of the good people here.

Road Rage aka Glenn

I cant blame you, that is one hot car! Also, congrats on getting MSRP, I have a feeling you will be one of the few to do that.

I don't think anyone can blame you for getting that car.

Can't really hold that against you. Hard to compare the two since one is twice the price of the other!

I hope that really happens for you;I've heard of some stealerships returning deposits on the GT-R because the prospective buyers thought they were going to get the car at MSRP.

Good luck
