yes. that is bad a$$. i knew it would be. i can't wait to hear what it sounds like.

and i don't see the Infiniti name anywhere at this point. they will either not call it by that name, or they will do the american market version as Infiniti. whatever the case may be, i like the surprise factor that Nissan has created about this car.

i almost hate to say this, but i like it better than the R34 GT-R. and i love that car.

Pricing
 
Nice car, beautiful, and if it delivers on handling and performance, it will most likely go down in the automobile history books for import markets around the world. The only daunting thing is the price they are looking at for it. Talking around $70K plus for america with an Infinity badge?!?! It almost sounds like it would be cheaper to import an older one.....but that's just my opinion.....

dodge Viper is $80,000. nobody complains about that or finds it unusual. and it is a dodge.

i don't understand the drama and outrage at the (alleged) price of a supercar that is on par with ferrari and porsche. it's actually cheap.

pricing again......
 
I'm not saying that the pricing is out of range, I'm just saying that for those of us that don't make $70k+ a year, it is steep. So for those of us that need to save our pennies in order just to make a down payment, do we import an older, proven model, or go for the new model???

the GT-R was never intended to be economically priced in any way. neither was the Viper. or the 911 Porsche. they have made it above the heads of most people for reasons of exclusivity.

if you want, for example, an R34GT-R, that will cost even more to import than to buy the 2007 GT-R.

the others are cheaper. http://www.skylinegtr.com/

I know that...but I wasn't looking for the R34, not enough aftermarket body options for it that I liked. I am, however, planning on an R33 to tune, which is about $20K cheaper than either....
