This is the first time we’re getting official pricing for the car outside of North America and Japan. The Nissan GT-R Premium Edition with automatic headlamps and digital Bose audio system starts at £54,200, while the top spec Black Edition with exclusive Kuro black paint, gunmetal grey alloy wheels and black leather and Pearlsuede interior with red leather highlights comes in at £55,500. Standard features include six airbags, special wide-beam xenon headlamps, a tire pressure monitoring system, 20in lightweight alloys and a security alarm system. The guys at Autoblog.nl, meanwhile, are reporting that the new Nissan will cost €119,900 in the Netherlands. We’ll keep you posted on pricing information for other countries as soon as it’s released.

Overpriced for a Nissan, underpriced for a supercar. Exotic does not equal supercar. ---

Some of you guys are retarded, no offense. **That $100kUSD is what it’ll cost in the UK. Here, it’ll be around $75kUSD**. Bargain for what you’re getting, if I say so myself. ---

1 - you won’t be able to get them here as they’ll all be pre-ordered sales 2 - if you do get one, you’ll pay over sticker 3 - i’d rather have a 911 for the money (i’d always rather drive a porsche for the same money…regardless of how “fast” a car is…nothing drives like a 911) ---

You haven’t driven the new skyline so how do you know the 911 is better? You probably haven’t even driven a 911. You can’t compare two cars just by reading reviews online. :stfu ---

> [@97VR4](#): > > You haven’t driven the new skyline so how do you know the 911 is better? You probably haven’t even driven a 911. You can’t compare two cars just by reading reviews online. :stfu You’re right…I haven’t driven “a” 911…I’ve driven probably 50 of them. Have I driven a new Skyline? No. But I can tell you this…no matter how “fast” it is…it’s still a Nissan. Look at the fit and finish of the 2 cars, the suspension geometry, engine blueprint, chasis r&d and maybe more important the history of the 2 companies and what they stand for. Porsche builds cars for drivers. Period. Nissan builds cars for…soccer moms, ppl that want econo-boxes, trucks, ect ect ect…oh yeah, and they make the Z for “drivers” right now. Wee. Why don’t you compare an F430 to a Ford GT while you’re at it. They are 2 TOTALLY different cars made for 2 TOTALLY different people. The GTR is the fastest car Nissan makes. Porsche makes several cars that are faster on any track if you want to put price aside. In the test, they took a 911 that was priced in line w/ the GTR. Which, you need to remember also. Okay, I think I’ve made my point. ---

No…a soccer mom driving a Quest mini-van…or Pathfinder…or one of the several vehicles Nissan makes. That was the point I was making. They make vehicles for the masses. They make one or two vehicles for true drivers/enthusiasts. Porsche only makes vehicles for one audience. If you want to argue the Cayenne isn’t driver oriented…drive one. It’s not your typical SUV.
