Luxury Gadgets Dumb Or Cool In New Gtr?

[scathing]

AUD$60K? No way...that would make the GT-R cheaper than a 350Z, and there's no way they could build the new GT-R for that price point.

USD$60K might be possible (the 350Z costs around USD$32K) but I still think it'll be upstream of that.

Carlos Ghosn said that this thing is meant to be the ultimate sports car with all the technology that Nissan can throw at it, to keep it as one of the quickest production cars on the market. That won't come cheap.

Lots of gadgets/luxuries = Too much weight = Not in keeping with the point of a GT-R

But, then again, 'GT' stands for Grand Touring, and freeways are very boring.

Have a NextGen GT-R for long haul trips, and a highly modified, lightened R32/3/4 GT-R for fun, balls-out drives

well, given that i have a 15 year old gtr and all the gadgets in that still work fine, i'm confident that if they put it in the next gen gtr - it will work - and the car will still be fast.
