what are some of your thoughts on Nissans new supercar? i must say its got some very impressive numbers for the cost...but the looks.....i dont know yet...i;ll check one out when it arrives at my local dealership.

 

It still to much of a fairlady for me. It needs more of the R32-34 look for me. But it is a brand new engine, the VQ37 and twin turbo. The tranny is now like the Evo with a mech transfer case. There is a good read in turbo and high performance mag this month.

 

^^^same thoughts....i dont know i think they should have gone with the Inline 6 forsure tho

 

correct me if im wrong here...but are they not supposed to sticker at $85-$95,000??

 

THink so, but with barely any work, you can have a 600awhp car. With a little bit of work, you can have a 800whp car. And with a good deal of work, you can have a somewhat streetable 1000whp car. Can wait to see what Honda and Toyota do with there offerings shortly after. Honda will have its NSX replacement out with a new V8 and atleast 400hp if not close to 500hp. Toyota will have a V10 in its supercar and will be 500hp min. Both of these cars will be in the same group of buyers. I think people that want any form of tunability will go for the Skyline due to it being able to make huge numbers and has AWD to plant the power. I still want to save up a couple of bucks and get the new Evo X as a daily. That car had stepped up it interior and i think has now ditched the ageing 4g63 for something new. People in evo land are complaining about the $5k price hike, but fail to remeber what the evo Vii and ix are like on the inside. The new wrx and sti both will come in a 4 door hatch. I see those not selling to hot here. From what they show in Japan, its back down to a 2L just after they moved the wrx to a 2.5L like the sti.
