great competition for the vette…base Ls3 vettes now should go high 11’s of the showroom floor if you drive it hard lets just hope this skyline has a solid built drivetrain like the old ones did and can be modded out the ass. that will be worth it and maybe a better bargain than the Z06! ---

Gallery of shots, first interior shots I’ve seen. Interior looks pretty straight forward, not to bad. Does have backseats but they look usless, not a bad trunk though for a sports car. > **[Nissan GT-R Photo Gallery - Autoblog](https://www.autoblog.com/photos/nissan-gt-r/)** > > View detailed pictures that accompany our Nissan GT-R article with close-up photos of exterior and interior features. (55 photos) I wonder if Nissan has any plans in place to keep dealers from jacking up the price on these? If not then the dealers probably stand to make more money than most of us would like. ---

I’m not too excited over the car. out of price range, probably over-rated. Showing up a little late for the Fast and Furious scene in my opinion. sure it’ll be nice, but it’s just not my bag any longer. give me an owner modified car any day over a factory option. ---

Ok I swear the last update I’m posting lol. But here are the numbers people were probably waiting for. Quoted off autoblog. > The GT-R’s twin-turbo 3.8L V6 will produce 473 horsepower and 434 ft-lbs. of torque. That’s a bit more than the 450 HP many were anticipating, and we’re guessing Nissan’s official power rating is still a bit conservative, as well. 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds is awfully quick, and there are plenty of supercars out there with more power that can’t hit that mark. All-wheel-drive, of course, aids the delivery of each pony to the pavement, while the only transmission available will be a GR6 dual-clutch six-speed. Paddle shifters are evident in the pics we showed you yesterday, and Inside Line report that they’re the same leather-wrapped aluminum ones as in the G35 sedan. ---

I used to work for a car dealership and every single jeep/chrysler trade in i drove felt like it was no newer than an 85, but in fact they were all late 90s or newer… trans’ always slipping or hard shifting etc etc. Can’t say i had either of those problems with ANY of the nissans that were traded. Including an 87 300zx. Jeep Cherokee’s will pull 250,000 miles with ease W/ out buring ANY oil! Hell Jeep/Chrysler came out with the lifetime powertrain its going to be hard to beat that! ---

^^^ Too bad the auto tranny’s are only good for 50k miles. When I swapped a “new” tranny on my 114k mile ZJ I noticed the tell-tale yellow paint pen on the one I removed (that had no reverse…). I was putting in the 3rd (at least) tranny on lol. I sold it a month later and it ran for another 6 months before the head gasket blew on the 5.2. ^^^ ---
