    2016 gtr

    has anyone seen this?

    Alleged 2016 Nissan GT-R Details: 800-Plus-hp, Hybrid Tech ? News ? Car and Driver | Car and Driver Blog




    what's your guys thoughts? think when it comes out it will really have 800hp? will Nissan be able to keep the price reasonably affordable like this generation of gtr?

    what are your thoughts on the hybrid system?

    and what do you think of the updated design, better worse?

    Nope. Looks like the next genesis.
    Not bad, just not what a GTR should look like.

    why do new cars have to have so many lines on the front end? looks like they are designing after a mach 3 razor.

    I see what your saying and most of the time it's to much but I think in the case of the gtr it's nice improvement of the front. this last model gtr had a pretty bland looking front end in my opinion, this is a cool refresh. unfortunately I don't like the design of the rest of it. the car is to bulky to give it all these round edges around the fenders. they should either shrink it's proportions a bit or keep it strait edged.

    if Nissan is truly is shooting for 800hp with this thing it will be more of a competitor with the porshe 918 then it would be a corvette or 911 turbo.

    If you can buy a sedan with 707 hp then they need to make it more powerful lol. I've never really been a fan of the GTRs unless they convince Mitsu to revive the 3000GT LOL

    totally agree mitsu needs to get off their lazy butts and make a modern 3000gt to compete with the gtr. hmm maybe if everyone on this forum banded together and sent them a bunch letters demanding it lol.

    There have been rumors that they are working on something new. They definitely need a flagship car again to bring interest back into the brand. Unfortunately I think they would be just as likely to stop selling cars in the US as to revive a genuine sports car. A lot of 3S fans have tried sending in letters, I doubt a handful of letters will be enough for them to spend the millions it would take to build a new car.
