Default A new breed of evil...2009 Nissan Skyline GT-R

So I've heard mutterings lately of the debut of the revamped Skyline GT-R to be released in the US late 2008. At a projected 450 AWHP mid-engine V-6 TwinTurbocar really sounds like the GT500, Z06 and Porsche have their work cut out for them. I'm kind of anxious to seethe GT500KR and this beast would would fair in an all out drag from a dig...at a course of course.

Oh god another ford fanboy.

ROTM: They had talked about a V8 in the new Nissan in the very beginning but as of the protoype in Japan earlier this year it's a twin turbo V6. Flat torque curve like the BMW 335i and won't run out of steam at higher RPM.

Looks Pretty Sweet to me. All wheel Drive with over 400HP would own everything.
