bit off topic but I would have thought that the GTR would be absolutely ripe for a coach-built version by the likes of pinninfarina / zagato / etc, I mean that car without the tacky japanese body and image would be something seriously special...

Yes, a massively tacky body designed and engineered over years to draw all air to the rear of the vehicle. Giving it the ability to drive faster and more with more stability than nearly everything else. Furthermore, if you are bothered about 'image', crack on with an Audi, with those LED running lights. Those will impress your fellow tts.

Peasant, your shipment of Fail! has arrived.

I think he's suggesting it is identical to the Infiniti, which is pantaloons, of course.

What an unpleasant thing to say! I think that you have missed the point that I was trying to make there old chap. Personally, I dont like the aesthetics of the body style or interior of the GTR. I am sorry if this has offended you in some way.

I accept however that the vehicle (as an overall mechanical package) is probably superior in every respect to the likes of a porsche 911 turbo. In fact, possibly one of the finest mechanical packages ever - and at a very reasonable price. So what I am saying is that the same mechanical package, clothed in a nice (italian?) suit would make for a very complete package as bespoke super can and possibly the equal to the likes of the ferrari 612 and much better than some of the other low volume machinery that you see.
