looks like an overzealous GTR owner looking to throw whatever mods he can get on the car just to be "first", without much concern of the end result...

love the car, hate the exhaust, and those rims belong on an escalade... i got excited when i saw the Mine's sticker, thought it would be theirs but sadly mistaken. did i mention those truck rims look horrible?!

Thank you all for your feedback on our GTR.. The exhaust setup is a 3.5" full exhaust right off the back of the turbos(designed and manufactured in house).. no restrictions.. As far as the wheels they are Marcato MTC wheels custom painted. Right now we are running Mines suspension on the vehicle. Please understand that we are a wheel/tire company and we put these wheels on to promote this new line of wheels. If anyone knows us personally you know we change wheels on all of our cars every month to showcase the latest and greatest in the market. If you have any questions on the vehicle please feel free to contact me on our forum.. It is hard to keep up with every forum talking about our vehicle. I wish you all the best of luck with your ride.. and if you ever need anything, please contact us!

Thanks,
Chris

Car sounds pretty sick I think. Wheels are allright I guess, would take some other blacks one though instead.

The next wheels will probably be all flat black with the white time attack.. but probably not white spokes again.

Nice, sounds like those will look pretty good. I think black wheels are def. the only way you can go with this car.

That explains a lot... twin 3.5 inch pipes out back... perhaps this car would be a great candidate for a titanium exhaust system? Or perhaps a resonator in the exhaust system or something to smoothen the sound out a touch. I personally felt it sounded a bit raspy. Can't imagine how expensive that would be to construct a titanium however...We all love the sound of a titanium exhaust

Being the type of company you are also, I can see now that the car has to be a rolling billboard so to speak for the parts that your company supplies, so the car may not appears to be anyone in particular's cup of tea depending on who's wheels are being showcased..

Thanks for coming on to explain the car. As you can see, it is way too easy for people to make judgments when we don't have a context in which to place things.

Enjoy the car
