We’re a pretty inclusive bunch, not really ones to pass judgement on others’ style. That said, we’re gonna go ahead and say it’s not ok to cover the dash and package shelf of your GTR with cutesy stuffed animals. Also, the only god that comes to mind in this case is Koalemos. The worst part about this car is that for as stupid as the plate and army of stuffed animals are, it’d still smoke your ass.
Still, it could’ve been worse.
Hat tip to Tim in Athens!
No no… the license place is supposed to be GodZILLA like… but i guess when you only have 7 characters to play with and ZilaLik is taken by a furrie… it leaves you with no choice
Trophies. Those are from Civics, Mustangs and Camaros that thought they could take him.
First, I saw my first GT-R in the flesh this last weekend. The plate number was "GODZILA" or something like that. Also, it is much larger than I imagined.
Second, the covering of the dash and package shelf in beanie babies is a purely psychological move. It disarms opponents who will see all the cutsie little stuffed toys and think that the driver doesn't have the cajones to drive a Smart Fortwo in anger, much less a GT-R. The opponent is sorely wrong and will be further embarassed when they see a Care Bear hurtling past them.
I have nothing on my dashboard, and I have nothing hanging from the rear view mirror. I'd think this guy could be ticketed for having his vision obstructed.

A note: were the those all little stuffed Godzillas, this would be perfectly acceptable.
With the stuffed animals, the owner obviously is not a KMFDM fan.
I prefer to believe that this guy's kids left some stuff in the back seat, and once they were safely dropped off at school, hoonage occurred, and g forces sent fluffy animals flying all about. This is where they landed when the hooning subsided.
LOLWUT?
Who do you think drives this? The vanity plate screams EGO, but the stuffed animals scream, um, let me see, how about effeminate. I bet a bipolar individual. Either that or the wife got the car in the divorce and is waiting till the last minute to register it.
This almost makes Lexus' initiative to carefully screen potential owners of the LFA seem reasonable. (How many stuffed animals do you own? Okayyy, then, we'll call you.)
I have seen that GTR before. The stuffed animals aren't the worst part. There front seats are equipped with cheap $10 Hawaiian floral seat covers from walmart. Ew, have some class.
Are you from Athens? I sent these pics in… always good to know of other car/hoon fans in the area.
I am an OU graduate. I saw the car last time i was down there for a visit in the fall.
WTF is in front of the R on the badge?
Was wondering that, too.
I think it's a stick on "s"
Cool! Glad to see you guys posted these pics. There are actually two GTR's in Athens that run around the Ohio University campus… the other one is black with gunmetal wheels. Last week they were sitting across the street from each other, and as I was pondering which one was my favorite, I noticed the license plate and the stuffed animals and snapped the pic above (and 3 more).
I've been keeping my Canon DSLR in the car this week hoping to see the car again… If I do, I'll get some better pics and post them somewhere.
Cheers to all who liked the pics, and thanks for posting it Hooniverse. I'm a big fan of the site.
Pretty amusing, but I got to know if someone's girlfriend/mistress/18 year old daughter stole or borrowed "daddy's car." Time for you to put that telephoto lens and Jr. stalker kit to use.
Sudden urge to play Unreal Tournament.
I saw today a saturn with the GT-R badge on the back. almost died laughing.
Guys, I live in Athens. A guy named Cayman owns a black Nissan gtr and lives in my appartment complex and the silver one up top belongs to a guy they call Jet. I read the articles in the paper. I thought at one point there were two silver ones but I’m not sure. I just know at one point, the silver one wrecked in my uncles yard. These are foreign students that own all of these. They have new Mercedes, Aston Martin V8 Vantages, and plenty of Porsches.
Last summer I saw a BMW M5 impounded, a BMW 3 series flipped, a GTR slip off of a road after going to fast around a corner, a BMW X5 flip into a ditch, and a Porsche 911 carrera s almost slide into a lake. I’m always at the right spot when these cars seem to wreck.lol.
I'm from Athens. I see one of them almost daily. Always one parked on Court or something. Not to mention a couple of M3s, also black and silver.
