I like it ...

i like the headlights!

There is so much duck tape, they have done a fair bit to try to hide it, car bra front rear dash all covered up.

I like it a little bit, don't like how that one is automatic

lol did u see the paddle wheels? f1 style baby.

Great photo, few interesting things i've spotted that is different to R34 so far.

*Its going to have either magnetic or air-suspension

*The door handle is straight out of Aston Martin V8 Vantage

*Bluetooth communication

*Sportchrono equipped

*Titanium exhaust

*LED tail lights

*Cross drilled 6 piston front brakes

*Auto headlights

It would be interesting to see how the paddle shift auto will handle the power.

Very nice

here is more info

* Redline at 8000rpm, Paddle shift, either six or seven speed
* Rumours of three derivations initially not confirmed, but there will be different versions over time
* New 'Super MFD' - advanced controls relating to the set up of car
* Wheel sizes unknown - thought we could read from pics but they appear 20"
* The test driver was a French VP of Nissan and he thinks it will be a smash hit
* Test driver commentted that Porsche have a lot to be worried about
* It has been top speed tested in Germany at 180mph and was - "very stable"
* Other test drivers have desrcibed it as "frighteningly quick" and "very smooth" certainly from the way it pulled away it was effortless.
* Interesting clutch arrangement meant it had trouble staying stationary
* They want to keep the front secet and it was suggested that what was underneath the camogflague was not the finished article anyway
* Rear seats have sub holes (ICE?)
* 3 buttons on dash: "T", "S", "V"
* Bose sound system
* Gauge: 340kmh
* There appears to be a lap timer as well linked to buttons on the wheel
* It appears also to have cruise control, proving it is a tourer/every day car as well as a track beast
* Door handles have a push in button for them to pop out to pull on
* The car at Goodwood has different aero parts to some of the other models seen at the Ring, not just the rear spoiler
* Quad exhaust system to mirror the twin round lights
* Brembo 6 pot callipers
* Bridgestone Potenza RE070
* Satellite Navigation screen in with MFD
* Steering wheel still has the R34 GTR look and feel

Now we just hope Nissan Oz going to bring it in.

yeh it looks very nice,

will it come stock with the car bra and ass cover?

Its offical, the 3.8L VR38DETT V6 with 353kw and 588Nm GTR is out.

At around $160k, which is similar price as the e92 M3, W204 AMG C63, the up coming facelifted RS4 and even IS-F. I think they going to have a hard time convince people to buy it.

$160k!!! Ouch ... nice car, but there's no way i'd pay that much considering as you said, the other options you have at that price range... but theres no way i'd ever pay more than $60k for a car unless it was able to fly (or at least hover )

My mechanic / importer (Envy Imports) has already ordered one (on the waiting list) and his one is supposedly coming in at $200k

Interesting that its a diesel!

Here it is doing a 7.38 at the Nurburgring.... there's not much about that will catch that

A diesel? Nothing i've read so far indicated its a diesel. Even the engine code indicated its an petrol engine.

new article in wheels magazine too...

A diesel redlining at 8000 rpm?? Unlikely but if thats true they're engineering geniuses at Nissan.
