Default Nissan GT-R Insanity

While configuring a car, I clicked 'Accessories' and was shocked by what I saw. I'm most offended by the jack and rod. The car doesn't come with a spare, but they'll sell you a chromed, stamped-steel scissor jack and charge another eight bucks for the jack rod necessary to operate the piece of crap.

What do you expect? Most of the people who buy expensive cars have more money than brains, and are treated accordingly by marketing departments.

maybe you should compare accessories to other cars in its class, like a porsche 911 turbo. I know its still expensive as fuck but when you compare the gtr next to an altima, yes it will be rediculous.

Maybe you shouldn't assume I'm comparing those prices to an Altima. Porsche offers floor mats for both of my cars and neither set cracks the $300 mark. Ferrari doesn't even crack $500. All of the cars come with a basic tool kit as standard and Ferrari's even comes in a leather-bound case that unfolds like a book and contains extra bulbs, fuses and a serpentine belt. Neither Porsche nor Ferrari offers a jack because they're not stupid enough to try and sell one to customers who buy cars with neither a spare tire nor the room to store one.

Nissan is way out in left field on this one.

So if you get a flat you gotta call the tow truck? That's pretty lame.
