Since we're on the topic of Japanese supercars, I'm eagerly awaiting the Nissan GT-R.

Keeps up with a Z06 and then some. AWD, trackable. $72k... (unless stealers mark it up)

I had heard that Nissan wasn't allowing the dealerships to mark them up, at least in the traditional Market Adjustment sense. I dont know if thats just rumor though.

That would be nice. There's a lot of rumors and hysteria about this car... Some facts"

507HP at least! Here's a dyno test.

Faster than a Porsche 911 Turbo on the track!

I read that the thing is neck and neck with the 911 Turbo in the 1/4 mile.
