Is this heaven? No, it's a storage lot in Florida
Something wicked, and white, and silver, and grey, and covered in protective tape, this way comes. In fact, it is already here: a lot full of Nissan GT-Rs in Jacksonville, Florida. Amassed like the automatons in I, Robot, all of them await their chance to embarrass cars costing nearly twice as much on U.S. soil. And a few will probably end up in accidents, ditches and tire walls as well, sadly. Click the link to visit the forum and check out more photos of what's in store for U.S. roads and garage mahals. Thanks for the tip, Jeff!

That is a thing of Beauty-almost like the lot of Challengers.

Now that's what I call a beautiful sight.

That pretty much conveys my thoughts, too. 'Vette owners, prepare to be made a laughing stock!

That is the most beautiful thing ive ever seen.I love how it cost as much as the z06 and actually wont depreciate but will appreciate and the gas is a whole lot better than the z06.Maybe its just me but ill take the GT-R anyday over the Z06. Im really not a muscle car guy im mostly into imports.But THIS CAR IS GODZILLA.Best bang for buck and so damn sexy.

That's some good trolling there.

So by best bang for the buck, do you mean how I would need to spend 100k after dealer markup... or how i still would probably not be able to find one available.
Compare that to how I could go down to my local chevy dealer and get a z06 for 70ish today if I wanted to.

The body shop at the port processor in Jacksonville repairs probably 100 damaged new cars a week- I wonder how many of them will be GT-Rs?

Hopefully they took extra special care unloading this lot.

The ILA never takes care with any of the cars they unload- saw one roll a Miata one time some years ago- walked away and nothing more was ever said. Groan.

The forum shows that it isn't longbeach, but Japan!

I just took pictures yesterday in Long Beach. Would you like me to go back there, and put my face in the pictures ?

That's some sexy nail polish you're sporting there.
Sean Morris 8:33PM (6/14/2008)

Very nice to finally see that many GT-Rs hitting our shores, I can't wait to see them show up on the roads and tracks.

I was in Jacksonville this week and actually chatted with a Nissan dealership employee at a local restaurant who gave me the impression that they were already in town. This proves it!
Epic picture.
