[EnricoPalazzo]

From what i read on the Yahoo Japan website last week, this is correct. 2007 it is.

[Rezz]

RRRRRREPOST!!!

Hey, if you guys are pissed because the GT-R is a) looking ghey, B) taking too long, c) not Nissan style, just send a hugely bagging e-mail to:

What the...............................................

[nc311hiver]

Um....well, we now have a car that turns into a boat when it gets into water which sux if there's a flood because your car would float away but cool because......it's different.

[akeenan]

wtf are you guys talking about? what boat?

[nc311hiver]

Some car here that's $325,000. It's a car but when you drive it into water it turns into a boat. But I don't know of anyone who would drive into the water because that's just really stupid. I don't think anyone's bought one, I know I wouldn't. That's a waste of money, in my opinion.

[Rezz]

I posted in jest, no hard feelings k?

[supraboy]

i saw a different version of the new gtr in wheels magazine a couple of months back.... actually looked half decent too, and i say half decent cos it aint as good as some of the concepts i've seen before....

[nc311hiver]

yea, well, every time i post something somewhere there's always someone on here bitching me out and I don't know why.

[predator]

coz you're american it happens.. anyhow, NEXT

2007 is a very long way off. Going on all the rumours and speculation you would have thought everything was pretty much finalised. By the time 2007 nobody will care about the GT-R, and they'll have lose most of the market.

So that just makes the V35 some inbetween freak vehicle all on its own? If its 2007 by the time the GT-R comes out it will have absolutely no shared components with a car nearly 6 years old.

[Warpspeed]

Maybe Nissan have lost the plot................

Or they are really smart. We are due for a worldwide economic collapse and depression any time now, especially in Japan. If it happens, there will be no GTR.

[predator]

seems like it.. good bye nissan performance vehicles. All you see on the road from Nissan is damn 4wD and tank people movers these days

huh? were'nt we heading out of worldwide depression? or was that yesterdays news?

I don't know whether japan even came out of the last one to be honest.

[Warpspeed]

Yes, Japan is an economic basket case, but at least they still have considerable export volume. If the US folds there will be mass unemployment in Japan, and it is not going to be pretty.

In the US, before the great depression radio, aviation, and automobiles were all in a boom, just like personal computers and the internet are now. Before 1929 there were over 2,000 public companies listed as being in the automobile or automobile parts manufacturing business in the US. Only three survived, GM, Ford, and Chrysler. Things are far worse now then they were back then just before the economic crash.

This is going to be real bad. If Nissan are smart they are not going to be spending zillions of dollars developing an expensive new car which no longer has a market big enough to recover the development cost. So I believe they are delaying the release date, they know what is coming.............

You know Predator, I think you hit the nail on the head. This is not about a "Porsche toppling GT-R", but about Carlos Ghosn moving and making it *his* GT-R... like I said before, it`s gonna take until 2007 for Ghosn to bully the Japs at Nissan to do what he says, and I don`t think Ghosn cares when the car comes out, just so long as it`s *his* GT-R. Proper w-a-n-k-e-r.

>Warpspeed: Man, thats conspiracy shenanigans going on right there, if Nissan know whats going to happen in the future financially and when, why did they almost go bankrupt?

[Warpspeed]

Just about all the big car manufacturers are technically bankrupt, and have been for many years. It all depends on being able to roll over the massive debt and stay in business.

The Japanese banks are also bankrupt. During the 80's property boom they loaned out unimaginable wealth to speculators. When the property market crashed they now hold property deeds at the face value of the loan. These paper assets are all the banks hold against depositors money. If there is a run on the banks the system collapses.

The whole system worldwide is drowning in debt, and phony worthless paper assets. The accountants can "prove" net paper worth exists, but actually there is nothing there.

Even in Australia the average yuppie has a mortgage on his overpriced house, shares in the stock-market, and otherwise is in debt up to his eyeballs, with zero net savings.

If the property market and stock market both crash, and he loses his job, he is finished. Your millionaire yuppie is broke. It could happen at any time. The whole thing is based on an illusion and is on a knife edge.

These days, all the wealth is actually a promise to pay by someone else. It is NOT conspiracy theory, it is FACT.

This is miles off topic though, but it is a subject I have a deep interest in.
