For the price Nissan is going to try to push them out the door for they are going to be sub-par performers. at nearly or a little above 4000lbs with 400hp it will be a good bit outdone by everything from Evo's/STi's to Mustang GT's and the new Camaro. And for what? Like $55,000 to $80,000? LOL ok.........

I dont see how a car faster than a 997 turbo is slower than a evo/sti

I dont see how a person can make a claim for a car that has never been clocked at a track officialy. Also being the GTR is rumored to have around 450hp and 370tq with a curb weight of north of 4000 pounds with driver and fuel I do not see it being faster than a 997 by much. Hell if those specs are correct i dont see it being faster at all. The 997 has like 480hp and does 0 to 60 around 3.7 along with a top speed of mid 190's. I think they weigh around 3300 to 3400lbs. So unless those specs are wrong or Nissan does some crazy **** with gearing and aerodynamics I dont forecast a world dominating car like everyone is expecting. And trust me that the price will be retarded, the 350Z is a high $20,000 car to $33,000ish and that is for a car with cronic problems, 280 largely overrated hp, mid 14 second time slips, heavy curb weight, and slow lap times.

Like I said Nissan has went down hill IMO.

In the first vid: Was that just a car-bra,or are they still trying to keep aspects of the front end design secret (like the prototype spy shots in car&driver)?

Just saying based on the leaked specs it dont seem to be a car worth what it's price tag is going to be.
