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

Just damn sexy, the Nis­san GT-​​R

Finally, after the heartache, tears, and edge of the seat antic­i­pa­tion, the Nis­san GT-​​R pic­tures have hit the blo­gos­phere like noth­ing else. Feast your eyes on Nissan’s lat­est foray into the Super­car mar­ket. Sport­ing the all new 3.8L twin turbo VR38VETT pow­er­house, the new GT-​​R will whisk you from 0–100 in 3.5s or less, and do the quar­ter in a very healthy 11.7seconds. The Corvette and 911 now have some seri­ous com­pe­ti­tion from Japan; and who knows what the Japan­ese tun­ing houses, or just enthu­si­asts, will extract from the new GT-​​R?

But enough. There’s one rea­son you’re here. Enjoy and know hap­pi­ness as only the GT-​​R can deliver.

The 2008 Nis­san GT-​​R

One of the great­est dri­vers ever, John Mor­ton, adver­tises the Dat­sun 240z, a very potent car for it’s time.
