the car in the link is the M-spec with some Nismo options such as wheels, wing etc, and similar money to Vspec in Japan

we definitely wont be seeing that, the GTR already costs 180k, there is no market here for a 300K model

this is the model we will be seeing next year

extra power is cool, and a given with any facelift

not feeling the leds but understand their required in alot of countries now - seems every ricer with an ebay account has the led strips on their cars these days

wheels look good in some pics, others they look a little small and wussy

but i am ordering those new hvac knobs, the only thing imo that lets the interior quality feel down

all the aero upgrades etc doesnt mean much to me since i daily drive this car

SAU front page claims a 7:20 lap but this site says 7:24 ??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%BCrburgring_lap_times

either way amazing, but 7:20 would be astronomical!

Any guess on how much the 2011 models would cost? Would it be good for second hand values if the price went up say close to 200K?

not really fussed about the new model causing the current model to lose value

its a given and happens with every car

if you buy new you have to concede you lost the gst and stamps the second it rolled out of the showroom

the only real visual difference out on the road imo will be the wheels, and im weeks away from having those changed anyway

for those who track, they'll appreciate the aero and chassis stiffness upgrades

7:20 rumor was started but was found to be based on the GT-R website being mistranslated. It was actually saying "in the 7:20's" as in 7:20.00 to 7:29.99

Later the wet track laptime was found to be 7:24 with no dry track time being published yet.

If you refer to carsales you can see car advertised for 129K that hasn'tsold for 2 months now, and others for 139K are also just sitting there for a long time, lets not even talk about others in the 150's - they have been there for 3-4-6months and clearly owners are not interested in selling - lets say DBA costs 200K on the road - do you really think this will help move these used CBA's?

Price in Japan has gone up by $2,000 for our premium model - so I would be very surprised if price here raises by $20,000. What's a driveaway price now for CBA's - 178-180-182K - I'd guess DBA will probably cost the same, considering strong AUD, if not less.
