Front is pretty crappy imho.

The R34 looks so much better from that angle.

Im not that keen on the smooth curve of the rear either, but that could look better in the metal.

Side view though..

That is bloody nice :)

Aggressive as all hell and just looks right.

It was always going to look similar to the 250Z, Skyline, Maxima, etc. to maintain that current Nissan DNA.

The R34 is great, but you don't get anywhere copying old designs, R31 to R32 was revolution, R32 to R34 (~12 years) was evolution, now we're back to revolution for a new modern look.

I think it's a step in the right direction for Nissan personally, They want to take on the global market with the next gen. GTR, but only time will tell if this gtr can leave the same mark that the R32 GTR left when it was first released.

No matter how great the R34gtr is, I still see the Euro supercar purists say things like, "but our cars look so much better", "It only beats my car because it was modified" etc.

I hope that this next GTR can shut up the purists & critics

The future of the GTR is looking very good I say :D

i dont really like it, the front end, especially the lights just looks plain ugly to me, but it is startin to grow on me. overall a pretty mean package though. did anyone else notice the bentley continental GT rear end, and, to a lesser extent, side profile.

im predicting its gonna be at least a 6 figure price tag on this baby.

its gonna be in a class of its own if australia gets it

the r 32 gtr was a 6 figure car when released in australia so this one should be a bit bgger with the 6 figures

I like the way that article read, lived up to the emotion the GTR badge brings. I am liking the design of the new one too, just wishing the would stay with the straight-six which has been a part of the GTR legend since the beginning - (EDIT) but there is as more money at sake (less development dollars for the existing V6) than there is necessarily passion for the big wigs calling the shots. Regardless it'll be awesome no doubt.

    • Also, a tip for young players  Check the dates on new tyres before they fit them, I always ask this question at the tyre shop, as they have tried to put "new" tyres on one of my cars a few years ago, but the build date was about 3 years old
    • Yeah - 4 or 5 years is the limit for decent tyres. Pedestrian grade tyres with 400 TW ratings start out hard and don't start to suffer until they are somewhat older again. But the stickier decent stuff? Nup. My current ADO9s are < 2 yrs old, 17000km in, only have about the minimum 2mm of tread depth left, and they are.....not what they used to be. They are clearly much harder now than when new. Whether that is heat cycles (unlikely, for a road tyre), different compound between top and bottom of tread, or actually aging out (in less than 2 years!!!) is not really able to be discerned. But I'd credit actual aging as being at least part of the cause. I've got an old pair of ~50% worn AD08Rs in the shed that I really need to get rid of. They started feeling waaaay too hard to put back on the car after a couple of years sitting there.
    • Personally I wouldn't put tyres over 4 or 5 years old on any of my own cars. Once they go hard the grip characteristics completely change. As per most things it only matters in an accident and that's when you most want them to do their job!
    • I'm replacing the front tyres on the E39 tomorrow because one of them has a few gouges out of it. There is so much tread still on them but they're also 9 years old and the rubber is super hard.  This falls within the guidelines of 10 years old that I've read which surprises me given their condition.  I'm curious about whether you guys care about tyre age or just judge the tyre based on condition? How old would you consider too old?
    • What starts as a scratch, becomes a flesh wound, then quadruple amputation. Jus' sayin'. Crush resistant gloves (The ones with the rubber strips down the back of the hand and fingers) might not be a bad idea after all!
