New GTR From Tokyo Motor Show - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

This show was great, but the show stopper was, well, ummm,
need I say more?
No way are my shots close to DCD's, but I thought you
all would not mind seeing some more.
DCD, were you in awe as much as I was, seeing this work of
art in the flesh? There is so much detail and CF, it is just breath-taking.

Will post more pics later, if you all want me to.

My favorite pic-not that I am gay or anything.
I simply asked him "Gimme a thumbs up" and well.....
Crowd loved it!!!!

Gorgeous! Not sure about the mirrors looking like flippers

and orange repeaters?!

Sure it'll change before release but it's just great as it is.

COSSYCam · 19th October 2005, 11:49 AM

Lovely pictures.
Its grown on me a lot. Did they confirm what motor would be used in GTR and whether is 4wd or rwd?

I couldn't wait for the revealing; as soon as I saw it, my jaw dropped. I'll definitely be makin a Vectir project out of some of the official pics ^^

DCD · 19th October 2005, 12:00 PM

Nice pix guys

Still have mixed feelings about it. I was looking at it for 30 minutes at the end of the show today. I'm understnading it but like I told you the rood line is too weird for me.

You gotta love the suspense and the way they introduced it to the crowds thought. It was a very special moment for any GTR fanatic. One to remember for sure

I'm not sold on the front end at all, it is too different for my liking. I really love the front of the R34, it has a visceral, angry quality to it. The same is true of the R33 and R32, although I believe it is slightly more muted. You seen a Skyline in your rear view mirror and it looks like its eating up the tarmac.

Also, I really wouldn't want to have a front-end impact at any speed with that much carbon at the front - not for safety reasons, moreof my wallet!

Still, with that much carbon I will be interested to see how heavy the car ends up being; Skylines have never been renowned for being light.

Very pretty except for that. Just something 'not right' about it.

Have to agree - the rear roof line is odd but the only thing I really don't like is the rear arches; they should be flared more like the front arches.

Love the front and rear views though
