It's interesting to see the range of replies from 'sign me up' to 'no way, it's a nissan' to 'we'd better watch out'. Some guys like history, some like image, some like acceleration, some like road course performance, some like 'quality' (whatever that means to them), and on it goes. Fortunately for all of us, there is an incredibly wide range of cars to choose from.
I'll continue to argue for 'if it makes me smile when I drive it, and I can afford it, I'll own it'. Even bone stock my tt makes me smile.

I agree, lots of b.s. on the net but this has to be the biggest ENTERTAINED LIE EVAR!!!!!!
No it wont! list of new cars coming out:
Supra concept thingy
Honda NSX
Evo V
Camaro (SS with LS7 550 hp)
Ford Shelby GT 500 R and KR
BMW M3 e90
Audi R8 (V8 and V10)
Viper SRT with 600 hp (will own the base GTR and be neck and neck with the top version!!!)
Porsche 997 GT2 (550 hp, will own all forms of GTR)
Corvette SS (650-700 hp, will own everything)
All coming out in the next three years, and you think the world will go bananas over the GTR???? I have to disagree, this car will be looked over like everything else is over here. It's only so big of a deal to the JDM fans because we have never had them readily available over here, but the GTR has never been anything dominant as a bone stock car, though it does hold its own on the road course. I just dont know where all this impact the world garbage is coming from.
Great car- yes
World Changer - no
The only thing that is causing a stir about this car are the lies floating around on the internet about it's ring times. Spreaad like wild fire too, someone even had the nerve to print it in media. BWAHAHAHAHA.

i bet it will run sub 7.40's on slicks with a crazy driver...but no way it's running faster than a donkervoort which weight 1340lbs and has 350bhp (7.18 at 280bhp). A fricking M3 GTR (yes, the race car) ran a 7.06.

All the cars you listed have been available in the United States in some form or another at one time. The GTR has NEVER been available. The forbideen fruit is finally within reach. That WILL cause a stir despite what you think. Maybe just because YOU dont like it/arent excited for it doesnt mean that MANY others arent. It has prally been one of the most hyped/talked about/publisied cars in the past 3-5 years.

I think it will be a great car, but the only people doing backflips are the JDM fanboys.
