i dont get how its won supercar of the year 2007 when its not exactly been released properly yet. But my moneys definitly on it winning a few awards in 2008

This is the much-needed press accolades that Nissan needs to win the media war. The press can create perceptions about cars that stick for years to come. This out-of-the-gate-swinging positive feedback is imperative to achieve this aim.

Excellent.

There are more than enough praises for the GT-R to offset the Audi R8's corner of glory. Besides, the front of the R8 is about as unattractive as it gets, looking like some severe Cylon Invader by committee.
