Nissan GT-R Spec V specs revealed by R&T

[trev0006]

Here are the numbers: 2 seats only, 520 hp @ 6500 rpm, 440 lb.-ft. of torque all the way from 3200–5200 rpm, 3615 lbs., 'Ring laps quicker than 7:30, $130,000 MSRP, early 2009.

So the car will lose its back seat and enough other stuff to shed 200 pounds, will get an extra 40 advertised horses, cost almost twice as much as the current model and lap the Nordschleife faster than a Porsche 997 GT2. We had that number as low as 7:25 recently, which is just insane. We're guessing there will be enough people that will wait for this model to hit U.S. shores when it debuts in early 2009, but even more who will think they can duplicate the recipe for far fewer dollars and a regular old GT-R.

for that price i expect a small chunk of land in japan... fuck that...

[ibanez7]

agreed with spaz..


also I never trust R&T or car and driver. they post whatever the car maker tells them to for the sponsorship money... every month the car on the cover is the hottest and greatest!

[Spaz]

"fastest car we've tested"

[ibanez7]

that is so true!

just like every week Guitar Center has their greatest sale ever!

[snaggeltooth]

so if the GT-R is TT I take it this is too ??

For me it is! My bro works in Corporate HQ for GC (and has worked for GC for 18 yrs) and I'm plugged into their system with his employee discount.

now that is good thing...

I worked at one of their stores during high school just for the employee discount.


one of my current clients is US Music (makers of washburn, randall) so i get stuff at their costs to make.

Too much

[Y2KArcticSS]

OR I could spend less money and get a Viper ACR, or a ZR1 Corvette...

..yup that damn old rap music..talking about drugs and hoes...not at all like country that talks about losing their g/f wife, shooting shit, or farming

[shady milkman]

music is completely ones own personal opinion

[shady milkman]

OR I could spend less money and get a Viper ACR, or a ZR1 Corvette...

im not sure about the ZR1..i cant wait to see the dealer mark up on that

[shady milkman]

i like it

me too! it looks like a great car to drive..id have fun with it.

[Y2KArcticSS]

im not sure about the ZR1..i cant wait to see the dealer mark up on that

True, but you agree with me that for the price you can get a SO much better car.

[shady milkman]

ahhh yeah...that all depends on how you define "better"...comfort? speed? straight line acceleration, road course/autox ...that all depends...the brand new EVO in a road course can keep up if not beat the Lamborghini merchilago(sp) ..despite the lambo have gobs more power then the Evo
