Thanks for the advice Mike ! I was not seriously looking for a MB anyway, I just liked the growl of the V8...and I can have some special rebate on MB (and BMW)

The resale value is important for me as it will be my last sportscar, I guess the Turbo should keep its value within 2-3 years better than the GTR, but we start from much higher...

For the reliability point of view, thinks are going better, Nissan made some improvements in the cooling of the transmission, and of course suppressed the launch control  + reduced the torque when in first gear (and the car still does a 22s from 0 to 1000m...). When I tested the car , I was driving wild in some small roads here in Lux, could play a little bit (but nor that much as there was a "mother in law" near me), and the transmission temp was only 85°C, far away from the 110-120°.
