| All of this "my car can beat up your car" macho talk is REALLY impressive. However, since this discussion is focused on the upcoming GT-R and not on what we think of other members, can we stick to the vehicle, please? | |
How much does this sucker weigh???

If the GTR=1/10 of what is being claimed, everyone will want one. Is there anyone here from Japan that knows how to get one? - How much will this sucker Cost, including expected steelership markups? - Will US Nissan Dealers sell for MSRP? - Is Nissan (US) accepting deposits yet? - What is avialability (how long to get one). - Is it possible to get a shipment direct from Japan..like the European delivery rather than getting it from a dealer? I fear, if the GTR is a very limited production car, it will demand well over sticker and will take a long time for delivery. Thanks

Replying to: jmaroun (Oct 29, 2007 4:58 pm) -including expected markup? ummm... my guess is $90k. -MSRP? Not bloody likely. -dunno. probably some are. -dunno. I wouldn't be surprised if wait lists already exceed first year production. -no Japanese manufacturer offers Japan delivery ...yet. I believe it has something to do with European companies being able to deliver cars cheaper on their home turf, but Japanese don't? I dunno. Taxes or something. I'm sure there is an explanation in there somewhere. |

It seems this GTR will be a typical supercar in many respects.. even the negative ones. 1.) It will probably command serious markups pushing into Porsche $$. Given the attitudes I've received already from local Nissan dealerships, my guess is that markups will be likely. 2.) It will be limited production -> meaning long waiting times. 3.) It will probably be very high maintenance given its extreme complexity. If the above prove to be true, it'll be a show stopper in terms of impacting Porsche 911 or BMW M3 sales. It may edge into Z06 sales though. The sad part is, it almost looked as if this Nissan would be kinda like a Robin Hood for poor auto enthusiasts.  The thought of owning a supercar for $66k lifted many a poor enthusiast spirits. The disappointment will be crushing, especially if the performance and driving experience rumors prove out to be true.
