Man, they soo need to rip off Mitsubishi's commercial, you know the one with all the other cars bowing down to the new Eclipse? The new GTR imo would be more deserving of a commercial like that. laugh.gif

(Of course, the only cars that wouldnt bow down... Yep, you guessed it! Subarus!) tongue.gif

On that Subaru, WTF? When the '06 came out everyone was like "holy crap that's hideous", and the fired the guy that designed it. So now to turn it around the took the same designed and applied it to a hatchback. What the hell is their goal? To make a badass, performance Pinto?



But anyways, I am looking forward to the GTR hitting the road. Can't wait to hear the stories of rich kids wrapping them around trees. And with my new income from buying some houses and the bar, I might buy me one of those.

56,000 USD for the base model. That's not bad considering the competition. I don't understand why they don't make the most popular Skyline in Japan. The GTS-T. RWD, turbo, good clean fun.

if I were to buy a skyline it would be the GTS-t. Because who needs AWD on tarmac? Because I don't know anyone who would run a car that expensive in the winter.

Nonsense, I believe that Carlos Ghosn has always stated a 2007 reveal for the production car.

Sadly, lately you've got a better chance of stirring up a sh_tstorm on this thread if you involve subies and not vettes.

and plus, the new GTR has been compared to the vette several times in many threads on this forum. i dont think anyone has ever mentioned it in the same breath as any subaru.

in any event, i dont think this car will sell well in the states anyway. it doesnt have along pedigree history here, and despite its performance, many buyers who can actually afford to purchase one (IE not a bunch of internet fanboys) would have a hard time seeing past the nissan badge. released under infiniti, it would likely make much more money and sell many more units.

I thought only the V-Spec model will come with the 4WD while the lower spec are RWD?

Hmm, some spy reports are now saying that the prototypes have lapped the 'Ring faster than a Z06 and a 911 Turbo and that the team are now aiming at the Carrera GT, specifically the time set by Walter Rohrl (around 7:28, the test cars have reportedly lapped it in 7:35 on a slightly wet track).

this GT-R seams like a Reno with a big engine and a nissan badge, whatever happened to the days when fast cars were based on race cars, if they had planned on entering GT1 with a version of this car then id be interested,
