The Nissan GT-R is one of those cars that boys have on a poster up on their wall growing up, I had a GT-R poster in High School.

The Peralta (built in 1926) was originally built to service San Francisco Bay, but an arson fire in 1933 burned the ship down to her hull. The salvaged hull was sold to a Seattle based ferry line and they commissioned in the beautiful streamlined body seen in the photos.
