def old news.

Anybody see the Top Gear episode that Jeremy drove the GTR across Japan? He wasn’t really impressed with it. Said it has no character/soul.

I never really cared for it & I am somewhat bored of it already. I guess if I drove one, I’d feel differently, but I’d take a Z06, ZR1, or any Porsche over it anyday. Actually, I’d take a standard 'vette, Mustang GT or even the new 370Z over it. Much cooler cars for alot less money.

Just my .02

Im a nissan guy but the United States release of the Skyline is a huge dissapointment. It like all the other Skylines are extremly overated and over hyped. Unless it has some work into it, its nothing really to write home about. Im sorry but If Im going to spend $70K+ Im stay domestic and buy a ZR1

I think it said 10 a month, but that should be the car that they mass produce. The expected horsepower was 50-75 lower than expected? The car was hyped up and was a quick let down.  
Old skyline, nice. New skyline, turd.

Blitz is bound to piss some ricers off. They pulled all the AWD bits from the front of the GTR, installed a MANUAL transmission out back in place of the orginal gear box, installed a 3rd petal, and dropped a shitload of weight off the car in the process. Same motor is still up front with just a hair of tweaking. The car is still in development, though half the reason they made it rear wheel drive was to go drifting.

yeah that blitz gtr is a nice setup, interested to see some video of it.
