Accord­ing to Pres­tige Motor­sport, the new R35 GT-​​R can now be imported legally under SEVS!

How­ever, com­pli­ance is as far as 12 months away (2009), and prices are expected to exceed AU$100,000 for the new Nis­san super­car. Regard­less, this is a big fist in the eye of Nis­san Aus­tralia, as enthu­si­asts will now be able to grab the new car directly from the JDM with­out Nis­san Australia’s interference!

Totally awe­some. Watch the GT-​​R take the 997 to task around Tsukuba. All said and done, Nissan’s built great com­pe­ti­tion for the Euro’s with the new R35. Still, insane JDM car fan as I am, I would still take that sexy 997 for a drive. And maybe never come back

The awe­some pho­tog­ra­phers over at CarAd­vice have cap­tured the sec­ond GT-​​R to land in Aus­tralia, belong­ing to an unknown (and well-​​to-​​do) enthu­si­ast. Rumoured to cost around AU $150,000 (A very hefty pre­mium even on the US $69K price-​​tag for the GT-​​R in the USA) the GT-​​R can­not be road reg­is­tered in Aus­tralia, cour­tesy of Nis­san Australia.

Nis­san Aus­tralia execs, we are glar­ing at you right now. Fix this débâ­cle and let us import them, or bring them here!
