Any reason not to buy a GTR?
Discussion
Damn wrote the below before I realized you said GTR not GT-R
I think you are spot on, very difficult to think of something better for the money. Maybe an NSX but it only has 2 seats, or of course a Supra.
I guess a 944 Turbo is just as good an investment and is a perfect daily driver too. Maybe even a 968, but you are not going to get that same performance.
Personally I would go for a slightly higher mileage car and save 10 grand, but depends on how long you are going to keep it and how many miles you are going to add.
The R33 is great, but to my eyes the R32 gives me much more an emotional reaction

For 50k is there really anything better to spend money on for a do it all car?
It currently ticks all boxes for me..
Big enough to fit a small dog and useable boot
Useable in all weather being 4wd
Under 30k mileage
Sounds great and proper fast
Low depreciation
Am i missing something?

If you've got the opportunity to buy a GTR, I'd say go for it, you only live once!!!
Hmmm, what would I buy for 50k though?!?! Having two young boys I'd need more back seat space than a GTR could offer [unfortunately]. Totally different car but for sts and giggles I'd probably buy a Jeep Cherokee SRT [got to own something with a Hemi once in my life].

I have an 2009 ultimate silver, had it two years now, have had a stage 1 tune and regular servicing, other than that the only issue I have is a failed ABS pump which I am having done in a couple of weeks at Litchfileds, think its about £1k, its common on the early low mileage examples, mine has only done 14,000 miles. Having a Milltek cat back exhaust fitted next week, they seem to be way to quiet in normal trim. Any questions let me know.
