For those of you who are confused with the specs and name of the car, this is the latest information i've gathered of the new GT-R - Thanks to the efforts of the NAGROC for compiling this information that can be found here :
There are three trim levels (USD):
- Base: $66,675 alloy wheels
- Black Edition: $68,580 forged wheels, black/red leather seats
- Premium Edition: $71,870, forged wheels, side airbags, Bose,
There are 6 exterior colors:
- Super Black
- Vibrant Red
- Pearl White (30k yen option)
- Titanium Grey
- Dark Metal Grey (according to a magazine, they will only produce 40 cars a month with this color)
- Ultimate Metal Silver (300k yen option)
There are 2 interior colors:
- Black edition only gets black
- Base and Premium can choose black or grey
Wheels and Tires:
- Base GT-R comes with unnamed alloys and Dunlop Sport tires
- Black and Premium editions come with Rays wheels and Bridgestone RE070s (run flat).
Other:
- The chassis code is CBA-R35
- Weight is ~1590 kg/3500 lbs (other sources say 1740kg)
- Premium edition comes with a Thatcham class immobiliser and alarm (optional on the Base and Black Edition)
- Premium edition comes with a Bose sound system (optional on the Base and Black Edition)
- Premium edition has seat heater
- Side airbag system is optional on all 3 trims
Engine and Drivetrain:
- The engine designation is VR38DETT (Twin Turbocharged 3.8-liter V6)
- The engine performance of the 3 trims is the same
- There is no Manual transmission option
Optional:
- Titanium muffler (10 kg lighter)
- Anti-theft immobilizer 250,000 yen
There will be 160 high performance centers throughout Japan specialized in servicing the GT-R with GT-R specific mechanics (written in the preorder material).
It seems as though it will now be known as 'R35 GT-R', not V35/6.
