yeah i like it. I think its good, just like a stagea almost... hahaa gtr suv... insnt that wat a stagea is. Agree not best looking but meh, bet it looks better in life.

If there is a market that will sell tens of thousands then i can see it happening. What i cant see happening is it having the GTR badge or too many common panels. Some driveline components, perhaps engine less turbos or different state of tune and some styling hints of the top of the range GTR will see it being a huge seller. This equals Nissan profitable again and we may get a decent Silvia replacement s budget rwd sports coupe

im only going to say it once....... UG-LY

But what do you expect doesnt one of those french euro trash companys that make those fugly so called cars own nissan now?

im willing to bet they had something to do with this like that abortion of a car Tiida

Like the proposed Infiniti sedan, if they make a SUV out of the PM platform there's no way it'll be badged as a GT-R. Ghosn wants the GT-R to be exclusive. It doesn't mean its tech has to be.

The Z33 and the V35 / V36 share the same platform, but there's almost no sheet metal or interior trim (aside from the shift knob and surround) that's common. Both cars are popular in their markets, and profitable despite only sharing the FM platform.

And those pictures look like something a student at a Photoshop crash course would have churned out on their first day or two. They look too much like a stretched and squished GT-R, rather than a separate car. At least that sedan, while having GT-R cues, still looks like a different car and is at least somewhat plausible.

This just sounds like a "Infiniti wants an AWD four door based on the PM platform, what flights of fancy can we come up with for the American market?"

I'd guess that, in a few days, someone is going to post pics of a "GT-R dual cab pick-up truck" to compete against the TRD Hilux and Holden Crewman, etc.....and we'll see another thread on SAU full of posts about how its ruining the GT-R name.

You're all forgetting about stagea's.......... also have the RB26DETT in them and they're a 4wd type car........

That's still ugly though and i'm not for it.

yeh, im all for making a sports SUV with a VR38 in it, but dont call it a GTR.

agreed, as long as there is no GTR badge on it, then do it.

Will be $50K+ cheaper than a Cayenne Turbo and they are an ugly looking thing too.

helical style burnouts in a gtr style SUV would be cool!

the Cayenne isnt called a 911T, so this shouldnt be consider a GTR.

Nissan must really have it out for Porsche, trying to beat them in everything!

Good idea, and plenty of people will buy this in Fat Land. But don't call it a GTR, bloody Nissan d!kheads.

Whats the point of the GTR, a sharp, tech-filled, manga designed rocket that gets super-sized and slow so people like Oprah can look fat inside it?

Good idea as the Murano's big brother. Bad idea as a GTR.

IDEA: How about calling it the Nissan XXL?

if they do it it wont look like the gtr and it wont be badged as one. just like the stagea. itll probably look more like the murano piece of crap but go much faster. if they made it look the same and badged it the same the GTR name will lose all its exclusivity, and supercarivity. (yep its my new word)

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
