Whoa.

 

nice find

 

thats a badass car

 

very nice car...that's not worth the money..IMHO.....I wonder how long it would take before that car's value drops under 100K....my guess is immediately.

 

Did you read the article? They are only building 20 of them.

 

Some lucky rich bastards are going to have some sick rides.

 

I understand...but it's not a McLaren...it's a Nissan...that's the difference.....but I still like the car.

 

This is one of those times when I cry out to god why I wasn't born rich to begin with...

Those things look mean as hell. A racecar for the street, period. 6-piston calipers, 'nough said!

 

Audi and Mercedes are now using 8-piston brakes on some of their cars. The RS6 from Audi, and many of the AMG cars from MB are now using 8-pots. Having 6-piston brakes is nice, don't get me wrong, but today in the automotive world, its just average on the "WOW" factor.

They used a lot of parts direct from the GT500 racecars. Tell me that doesn't generate some "wow" factor.

 

wow wow wow...thats awesome

 

Wow, great find.....

 

The car, sure. The car is a great piece of work. Great engine, great suspension, lightened body work, everything. I was just talking about the brakes. While 6-piston calipers are nothing to get upset with, especially when they are clamping 14.5" rotors. I was just saying that with a decent ammount of cars now showing up with 8-piston calipers and over 15" rotors, it doesn't have quite the same amazement factor it would have 6-8 years ago. Thats all. The car is sweet. Very well sorted and put together package.

Great find? It's a Car and Driver article.
