Yeah I'd take it. I could give two sh*ts if it's an import name plate and who builds it. I've got nothing against Nissan. It's also more exclusive than a vette in the sense they plan on building only 12,000. AWD? That'd be my winter car right there...

So your on a v6 f-body board... and your winter beater woudl be a 500hp $75,000 sports car. Get your priorities straight.

I didn't mean it that way. I was jokingly trying to make the point that you could use the car right through the winter also. Prob not so much a bright idea with a Vette.
If I started it with, "If I had the money..." would that make it better now? :p
Of course if the turbos are all ready close to maxing out then it will be a different story.
Lets hope Nissan learned from the 350Z. I know they're not turbo'd, but they are pushed pretty much to the max from the factory. I could see them doing it though, making this thing pretty much maxed out from the factory

Agreed.
Also,
The ZR1 could be scary fast. Imagine a Z06 with more power :eek: I'm sure they'll have it running 10.01s or close to anything a little above the 10 second mark. Is it going to have a roll cage from the factory?
Black \'94 Trans Am A4- SLP CAI & Loudmouth<br />Red \'93 Firebird A4- Ram Air under the WS6 hood, !cat, exhaust.
Point A) Import car companies combined employ more american workers than ford, chrysler and GM combined.
Point B) Imports also use more american made parts than american companies.
Point C) I wouldn't buy anything that's not GM if I was to pay more than 50K unless it was a porsche or BMW, end of story
point a) because they speak english no more language gap...
point b) imports use american parts.. american use taiwan parts.... *Cheap you know*
point c) i really dont mind it.. remember that engineers designed these cars to be Mod friendly... basically when you buy one of these Imports youre actually thinking of modding it... but if youre gonna buy some of those Ford GT and porche ill prefer them to be bonestock.. in the end it will have a highr resale value if kept stock... longstory short.. for racing ill take an import.. but if im gonna go out find some girls ill take the porche or Murchielago
Horsepower is how fast you hit the Minivan... Torque is how far you take the Minivan with you... :wavey:

Now now 10 1's is alittle unrealistic for a production car. Its definately going to be better than 11 4's but don't know if it will be a 10second car or not its best to wait and see.
I wish they would have did a Twin Turbo vette insead of a Supercharged vette, Supercharging is great but thats alittle Mustang "Cobra-ish" if you ask me, I can remember growing up as a kid and see those nasty twin turbo vettes that Callaway or Lingfeilter used to build and its like man I wish they would have done that insead of another supercharged car you can get so much more.
Either way wait until somebody mods a ZR1:eek: and watch cars like the Veyron go:tdown:

I don't see what's wrong with car that are maxed out from the factory. The most I ever do on cars are intake and exhaust. I am actually GLAD that it's maxed out at the factory so that I don't have to do anything to it. I do understand your point that it's not easy/cost effective to mod (or you get little gains from modding) but there are a lot of people who likes to keep their car close to factory specs. After discontinuing of almost all cool sports cars/coupes (Celica, MR2, Camaro, Firebird/trans am, RSX, CL, supra, or even GTO) I was only left with 350Z or S2000 or RX8 (in my price range). Basically that's about it! S2000 lacks torque and Rx8 is f'ing ugly. So, basically there's only 1 sports car I was forced to buy which is 350Z (and also I think it looks better than the other two). I thought because of that, Nissan cashed in sh*t load of money off the 350Z.

and try to get the new camaro around 2011 (or as soon as dealership calms down with the mark up prices) ;)
"The first Skyline to carry the GT-R (for Grand Turismo Racer) designation arrived in 1969 as a four-door sedan...... It was powered by a 160-hp, 2.0-litre six"
That's some heritage to be proud of!!!!!!
but once again I'd take a C6 over that any day of the week
Haha, vette's made 140-160hp in the late 70's.
I'd drive one, probably a fun car, if I did not have to pay for it. They seem to move out from the vids i have seen, but we'll see what the production models will do.
my moms murrano has 30k miles on it and it hasnt skipped a beat so i wouldnt knock on a nissan, i am all about the general but i drive a cummins ram cause the engine not the truck, the GTR is ugly as balls form the front, *** isnt bad tho, at least the japs go forward in performance look at what happened to the nova in the 80's the chevelle took it in the *** as well thats were ide rather have the bicycle so going from a 4 door sedan to a 2 door sports car isnt a bad evolution process, after saying all that ide rather have the R32 GTR rear wheel drive same exact motor from the R34 but more fun burnouts!!!
76 Camaro Rally Sport-355/TH350- Soon to be LT1/TH350 with a little laughing gas to wake it up...;)
89 Ram D350 CTD/M5- 1 Ton Dually getting 27 MPG's

Haven’t done anything on the Camaro, but put LEDs on my truck headlights . And my oil pressure sensor went out on the truck so going to fix that this...
