Can't say im a huge fan. To be honest i think the GT-R was laid to rest with the Z-Tune. That front end is just

[[j]Desing]

OH SNAP!

[JapFreak786]

the interior shot where it shows the dash/dials/heater controls etc looks like some off-roader like a Pathfinder or something (my bro pointed it out)
and the front end is abit on the poor side but bar that i can already imagine fitting some Apexi filter's with some BOV's for a silly noise (yes i like it!) and some Time Attack TE37's!

So far, the best we've seen of the it are spy shots of prototype vehicles getting hammered around places such as Mazda Raceway at Laguna Seca in Monterey, California, and along the famed Nurburgring race track in Germany.

That was then, this is now: Here's the new GT-R in all its un-disguised glory.

The reason you get to see it this week instead of next is simple--the embargo on information was broken by Motor Trend magazine which put the car on its December cover; an image of which was released to promote an award.

The Nissan GT-R will go toe-to-toe with the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and Porsche 911 Turbo. The GT-R's twin-turbo V6 gives it a startling 0 to 60 mph time of near 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 192 mph. That V6 cranks out 473 hp and 433 lb-ft of torque, driving all four wheels through a rear-mounted transaxle. In between is a GR6 dual-clutch six-speed automatic you can operate via paddles on the steering wheel.

Base price is expected to be less than $80,000.

After months of spy shots and drip-fed teasers Nissan’s all new GT-R super-coupe has been revealed with the early release of the December issue of MotorTrend. The tagline on the magazine’s cover claims the car is as fast as the Porsche 911 Turbo and is priced less than $80,000, confirming rumors the new GT-R will set a new standard in bang-for-your-buck comparisons.

Other details include the GT-R’s acceleration time of 3.5 seconds for the 0-60mph and 11.7 seconds for the quarter mile. Top speed is claimed to be a staggering 192mph.

Although we still don’t have any official details about the car’s new drivetrain, most are expecting to see a 3.8L V6 engine fed by a pair of turbochargers and mated to a dual-clutch gearbox with the latest ATESSA all-wheel drive setup. The car should measure in at 4,650mm in length and 1,920mm across. There’s rumored to be three different flavors of the new GT-R, starting with a 450hp entry-level model and ranging up to a 530hp flagship. This latter version is expected to be a stripped out racer with plenty of carbon-fiber and a track-tuned suspension.

Stay tuned for the flood of official details and images once the car is revealed at next week’s Tokyo Motor Show.

Here are some official Nissan GT-R pictures for you to drool over from the guys over at AutoWeek. More official information will come next week when Nissan unveils the long anticipated beast at the Tokyo Motor Show.

The Nissan GT-R will go toe-to-toe with the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and Porsche 911 Turbo. The GT-R’s twin-turbo V6 gives it a startling 0 to 60 mph time of near 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 192 mph. Base price is expected to be less than $80,000.

First Official Photos: Nissan GT-R Embargo Broken!

Numerous GT-R prototypes have been caught testing around the world, including at Germany's Nürburgring and California's Laguna Seca Raceway, but this is the first look at the rocket sedan's completely undisguised sheet metal.

Official specifications aren't expected to be announced until Nissan's Tokyo show press conference on October 24, but months of spy intelligence suggest the all-wheel-drive 2009 GT-R will get a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 that produces approximately 450 horsepower.

Nissan says the GT-R will accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, finish the quarter-mile in 11.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 192 mph. Base price is expected to be less than $80,000.

If true, the GT-R will be serious competition for the Porsche 911 Turbo, which it has been routinely seen testing alongside.

What this means to you: It's here. And it's hot.

[Simonh]

sadly it's still not a pretty car.

[Alan]

I know its personal choice but I like it

[Blow Dog]

I think that interior's gonna date bloody quickly.

[andreasgtr]

I'm so happy now that the R33 is my favourite GTR.
But maybe it looks different/ better in another colour? (hope mode / ON)
I hope the "bigger" version will get a different front.

Got to agree with you on that one! I don't like it anyway....think they could have done a much better job on the interior. Instrument binnacle looks nice none the less.

Don't like the front seats, especially after the R34. They seem to have no support like the R34, and very peculiar shaped IMHO!

Will have to reserve exterior judgement till I see it in the flesh....at the moment not too keen on the front end, although rear looks quite purposeful

[Trev]

Love the engine, V6 turbo'd = NICE!

HATE the design though and for the love of God......why is there not a manual transmission??????????

[King Nismo]

hmmmmmmmmmm R34 anyone?

[Crono]

I think it's a good looking car. The only thing I have against it's looks is that I thought the whole "black lines through headlights" was pretty sexy on the GT-R Proto. Guess they changed their minds.

Had difficulty getting it to pass emissions with the manual box before launch.
