Looks very quick!!!!

 

Nismo Gtr! wow that car is really fast!!! from 0 to 60 in 2.1 seconds!!!too bad it's really ugly....

 

Very cool.

 

So an expected 570hp and 480ft lbs. and extensive use of lightweight materials.

To hit 2.1 seconds, assuming no gearing change, would take what, a 800lb weight reduction? Compare to a more aggressively geared and lighter 911 TTS at 2.7ish?

I'll be curious to learn more actual information comes out.

 

^ +1.

I think 2.1 is a little exaggerating... I'm thinking 2.5 at best.

(simply because the hybrid versions weren't supposed to be out until at least the R36 (maybe later).

 

Wow,
2.1 is maybe not possible but even 2.4 / 2.5 still makes it the fastest regular production car.
NOW , if it runs the ring in a sub 7 minute time, then time for all to bow down.........

 

If that much weight reduction is done, assuming via CF composites, is this now a $150k+ car, sold at Nissan dealers (imo always should have been Infiniti)?

 

2.1 or 2.5, either way is very fast and will put the heat back on Porsches new 991TTS. The weight has always been the achilles heel for the GTR so if they have 425kw stock and a lot less weight i'd say low 2's could well be achievable.

 

They should make it look more like a sport car...

 

The look is dictated by drag CO and down force. The current GTR has one of the lowest Drag numbers and the most downforce.
It may not look swoop- y but the numbers don't lie. The 458 had a co of .28 and the GTR co is .26 .
Function over form ............

 

A girl might be really good in bed, but that doesn't mean i want to be seen with her.

 

If all you can see is my tail lights disappearing into the night, you can only dream of what might have been.........

 

2.1 would be unreal.

This is perfect!!!
