MCR have fit up the carbon paddles that move with the steering now as well as an extremely hot looking Nardi wheel:

The Z06 handles great by all accounts it is America's very own supercar which can easily trade blows with exotics and the price tag is amazing in the US it did exactly what the GT-R is doing now years ago. The 'ring time as well as times on other tracks show this to be true.
Overseas though the Z06 is barely even a footnote since it's kinda hard to sell a gigantic engine on oxcart suspension to Europeans and in Australia even our V8 lovers cringe at the massive price tag importers are asking after taxes, compliance and RHD conversion.
Saw an ad for a brand new 07 Z06 in the paper on thursday. $250k AUD. I'm sure you can get a better deal somewhere but come on that's just silly.
Lol... If he orders now it should get here by the end of 2008.
If he's loaded though he can just pay the auction mark-up of $10k?? and have one this weekend though Obviously he's loaded though considering the taxes on motor vehicles in Singapore make this car extremely expensive.
A Singaporean GT-R owner apparently has crashed his GT-R in Malaysia... I'd hate to see his insurance excess...

I'm just gonna merge this with the other thread... nothing really news here. Someone else trying to cash in on the same deal with no actual physical cars.
Lol, Agreed. Nissan Japan did not see fit to send them the marketing material. They just hit up http://brandsoftheworld.com , downloaded the publicly available GTR logo and sent it to their local print shop.
Kinda an embarrassment.
I like whales and I like eating whales. All this talk about whaling is only making me hungrier.
My concern is that they are whaling in Australian waters and yet we do not get to benefit from the tasty, tasty harvest without traveling all the way to Japan...
Were you there shooting with the D80 earlyish in the morning?
Anyways I shot a few HDR's out of the box early but am keeping them to myself until I can make them wallpaper friendly!
Yeah - I don't think Nissan Australia did that though, it was the company they outsourced the tour to. Nissan Australia aren't putting these shows on they're being put on by a different company on behalf of Nissan.
Yeah... They take some getting used to when using them. Kinda a push then pull thing. Probably pretty bad for when you're trying to pickup someone when they're in a hurry.
If anyone wants a hi-res pic of any of mine I have 4200x2800 versions here.
I also have the raw files as I shot these in raw. Not sure if they are 12 or 14bit raw though as I forgot to set that on my camera.
edit: just checked, just 12bit raw... oh wells next time ill shoot 14bit raw for more detail
A repost... Thanks but it was already there a couple of months ago sorry.
