Nissan announced the New GT-R site today. If any Japanese car was more badass than the Nissan GT-R, then the world would probably collapse under the sheer weight of awesome-ness!
Seriously!
Now, I have my reservations about the current G35 based GT-R, since they moved away from the RB series straight six engine that was, quite simply, legendary. The new GT-R will have a turbo charged 3.8 liter V6, based on the 3.5 liter V6 in the 350Z and G35.
The VG35 has proven to be a very good engine, with a lot of potential, I just have a soft spot for the RB series and the concept of a straight 6. I am sure this will be every bit an enormously awesome car, I just have to reserve judgment until we see the pudding.
Style-wise, i have always preferred the R34 skyline over the G35. between the G35 and the 350Z, I prefer the 350, so the looks are probably the only location where I was worried. Based on the prototype however, I think they have managed to make the G35 a bit sexier and meaner looking to satisfy me.
Now, if only I had the 70k that it will street for here in the US...
