So yeah, the new GTR is THAT big...

after seeing all the pics of the new GTR I marveled at how a car that looked that small weight that much, now i realize it wasnt next to another car I recognize to give it a bit of perspective. In this case, no better car to sit it next to than the old GTR, which Ive been in before and if youve ever seen in person you know is NOT a small car, I guess the proportions of the new GTR gave it the sense it was smaller than the old one, but wow no, its HUGE!

We all know an Evo isn't that big compared to a supra.
