Soldato
lol yeah i didnt notice the location till you said lol. Id imagine it could well be sold over in the U.S.A under the infinity brand.
There's a good reason why you don't agree with Tommy, namely that he's wrong. That, and you've summed up nicely one of the reasons why.I can't agree with Tommy on his point about image as I thinks it's a somewhat weak argument. The image associated with the Skyline today and the M3 from E46 back is based on who drives them today, not who bought them when they were new. Its the same with the E39 M5 because as the price comes down and they become available to new audiances their image is associated with the current demographic, or should I say the odd one or two 'chavs' who may choose to own them, not the majority of people who are probably just enthusiasts now able to afford a car they have always wanted.

After reading many reviews, it seems to me this car would only be purchased by the true car enthusiast.
Which leaves the other 90% of the market to buy their 'status-symbol' vehicles, cars which whilst won't be able to outperform the GT-R, look a lot more beautiful and seem more powerful than they actually are.
I'm just thinking, imagine this car with an R8 body. Now that would be an absolute beast.
Edit - This is an amazing track car, but a GT2 still spanks it in the 1/4-mile time, and the 0-100 time.
Id say more than 10% of the market are car enthusiasts to be honest. But neither of us have any figures to back our claims up.. unless you actually do?
How much is the GT2 going to cost tho?!!
erm 130k
The GT-R has grown on me a bit, I'll admit. However, I still hate the back. It's a shame because other than that it doesn't look too bad, it just has a fat ass.
