As title,has there been a manual version of the GTR made or are they all auto or semi auto as that's all I can see advertised.I'm just thinking ahead, if wanting to get one to use as a very serious track toy and obviously manual tends to be first choice for this?

There's only one gearbox option, it's better at shifting than you are. For a manual you're looking at previous generations.

Are they not a little too heavy to use as a very serious track toy?

So is there not an auto or semi auto option? Is this just people calling the same thing a different name?

Yes definitely in standard trim but if I did go for one it would be when they were below say 25k value and then fully stripped and lightened to get to a "reasonable" weight.

Might seem criminal to strip such a car but i'm weighing this up against buying say a 10-15k car and then spending another 15k trying to extract loads more power and handling etc.when a gtr is pretty much everything you could want as standard.Prefer a car big enough to drive to track days with all spare wheels,tools etc.in the back.
