IT is still a “prototype” though. Who knows how much the design will change between now and next year when the 2007 cars are released?

**UPDATE:**

_Nissan Announces North American Sales Channel for GT-R  
Wednesday April 12, 8:45 am ET_

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–April 12, 2006–Nissan (Nasdaq:NSANY - News) announced that the next generation GT-R performance car will be available in North America as a Nissan model, consistent with its global branding. The GT-R, which previewed in concept form as the GT-R PROTO, has not previously been offered for sale in North America. The production GT-R will debut at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show. It is scheduled to go on sale in Japan in Fall 2007, followed by the U.S. and Canada in Spring 2008. More details on the GT-R launch will be available at a later date.

So maybe it won’t have any of the luxo-bloat that comes with the Infiniti brand.

And I just got an email -

_Since the unveiling of the GT-R PROTO at last October’s Tokyo Motor Show, Nissan has continued development of the legendary GT-R sports coupe. And while details about the next generation GT-R have been few, one important piece of information was made public today._

Mr. Carlos Ghosn, President and CEO of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., kicked-off the New York International Auto Show with the exciting revelation that the GT-R will be sold in the U.S. as the Nissan GT-R.

As part of his keynote address at the International Motor Press Association Breakfast, Mr. Ghosn said that when he unveiled the GT-R PROTO, Nissan had not yet decided whether the GT-R would be sold as a Nissan or an Infiniti in the United States.

Mr. Ghosn also expressed enthusiasm that the heart-pounding GT-R will build on drivers’ passion for the Nissan brand.

This communication is first in a series leading up to the launch of the Nissan GT-R. As part of an exclusive group, you will be among the first to receive information and special insights into the development of the Nissan GT-R.
