In a few hours, Nissan will fully un-mask the GTR at the Tokyo Motor Show. Since multiple threads already exist, it’s likely that even more will pop up so lets keep it all in one place. Go to [www.gtrnissan.com](http://www.gtrnissan.com) to watch the unveiling LIVE. (At about 12:50am 10/24) The only non-speculative information as of now: - The GTR is being built to compete with the 911 Turbo for around half the price - Every time someone calls this car a Skyline, God kills a baby seal They should release official specs, etc. soon 🙂 ![http://www.nissangtrproto.com/images/2007/10/gtr-unveiling.jpg](http://www.nissangtrproto.com/images/2007/10/gtr-unveiling.jpg) :snky: ![http://www.nissangtrproto.com/images/2007/10/red-gtr-1.jpg](http://www.nissangtrproto.com/images/2007/10/red-gtr-1.jpg) ![http://www.nissangtrproto.com/images/2007/10/red-gtr-3.jpg](http://www.nissangtrproto.com/images/2007/10/red-gtr-3.jpg) ---

[quote=“ZOMGVTEK,post:5,topic:37482"”] So, whats this i hear about these being only in auto? [/quote] We won’t know anything for sure until after midnight. There are so many speculative ideas about this car out there and the general consensus is that Nissan has been feeding false information to the media just to generate buzz. Hell, they made the site [www.black-mask.org](http://www.black-mask.org) and had crazy people on black masks randomly showing up in places all over the world. They’d pull up in a small truck, and open the sides to reveal 2 GTRs… and watch people say WTF HOLY SHIT?! ---
