Nissan GT-R


Faster then a Porsche Carrera Gt, a Mclaren SLR and a bunch of other super cars for a fraction of the price

EDIT - This car is just another example of why the Japs are eating the Big 2.8's breakfast, lunch and dinner. This car is the latest in the lineage of the the Skyline nameplate - a car Nissan has been slowly perfecting for decades. Why is that relevant here in 2008? Because that's what the Japs do, they take a car and continually improve it. Honda does it (Civic, Accord) and so does Toyota (Corolla, Camry) while the domestics, with their perennial ADD make a car, neglect it (Saturn, Taurus, Focus and dozens of others), and drop is like it's hot once sales start to inevitably slump. Mind you, there are just two American nameplates to receive continuous improvement, for five decades now..., it's the exception that proves the rule - can you name them?
