I could only tolerate 1 min 30 sec of listening to that dude talk about those rice cars and I had to turn it off. I never got to see the GT-R

I've always been a fan of the Nissan Skyline GT-R. This looks like it shares the same platform as the G35 and 350Z. I am curious to see what kind of powerplant it has. They might stick with the Turbo Charged inline 6. Nice looking car.

Thanks for posting the video.

it will be a twin-turbo V6 or a V8, and it is a variation of the FM platform, unfortunatly the famous RB26DETT is no more, so inline is out.

Nice car! G35 with a ton of power? I like!

Front end looks mean . . . kinda like a pissed-off godzilla.

Personally the overall look seems distinctly Jap high-tech, but there's no warmth, basically a motorized video game. I know that AWD is an awesome tool for posting great performance numbers, but every four wheel drive car I've sampled has never felt as alive being run through the gears, as a good RWD one - Great stick, but not much fun. I buy my toys based on their feel and fun quotient, not necessarily based on the best paper stats.
