Nevertheless it's interesting to see a muscle car in Europe.

[Blackeangel]

Driving across europe in any muscle car Especially new mustang/challenger/camaro would be SOOOOO cool...

[beavisPDBSK]

@zBpautos they had the car still under US registration plates so certain regulations may not apply. Its the same with american soldiers being on deployment in Germany for example.

@LJAR28 me to

[gorrammit]

we gotta remember this was shortly after the Challenger was released, so this was most likely many Europeans' first time seeing it in person...wow

[zBpautos]

how were you able to import this car to Europe? It doesn't have amber rear blinkers (required in the EU)

The GTR R35 has a v6 and its 3900 lbs. 0-60 in 3.3 stock. v6 is good, its just Americans don't know how to make a good one yet.

Oh, that would be fun, throwing a big, loud, American car in the faces of all the Europeans that hate the US. It would make me happy to do this.
