Exclamation GTR Proto DEBUT!

TOKYO — Shiro Nakamura, head of design at Nissan Motor, says the company's breathtaking GT-R Proto concept, unveiled Wednesday at the auto show here, is "80 to 90 percent" close to the vehicle design that will be produced in 2007.

While the nose of the GT-R Proto is more conceptual in nature, Nakamura said the car's greenhouse, side profile and rear end, especially the retro-style round taillamps, are "very close" to the final design.
My Take: F*CKING SWEET! It's mine... g35 will be traded in! I can't wait for it to hit US shores, Im so happy. The evo was gonna be my next car, but ive had a change of heart, .

80k, 120k... wtf! Nissan please don't pull a honda and do the GT-R like the NSX, that would be very stupid. I hope nissan makes this affordable and sell trim specs, IE: N/A, turbo and twin turbo models.
