Default The USDM Nissan "GT-R" makes it's U.S. Debut!

The Nissan Skyline GT-R 35, or simply the "GT-R" as it is called in the United States has had it's first official American car review.

It will be scheduled for release late this year, or early/mid next year, and is set at a $79,000 MSRP.

It strays from it's predecssors in that the standard RB26 Inline 6 motor has been replaced with a Twin Turbo V-6 that pushes 495whp STOCK. Also has an available 6 speed, Formula 1 inspired paddle shifting set up as well.

In it's European review: It has been tested in the Nuremberg Circuit in Germany, and smoked the Porsche 911 Turbo.

In it's American review: It has been tested at Big Willow in California, and smoked the runner up, a C6 ZO6 Corvette.

The performance of this vehicle has astounded the first round of reviewers thus far, more news to come later!
