elaborate why. When Nissan introduced the Z they sold as many Z's in 10 years as Chevy sold vettes in 30 years. The new Z06 costs 95k. I dont see the GTR failing when it gets sold in the US for the first time. Now its not gonna be as common as the Z's but they will be around. I think the people that are hatin have slow, slow, POS cars.
You need to check your prices again, a Z06 actually sell for 65-70k, a far cry from the 90k you say. I dont see many ppl buying one. Skylines biggest fanbase is teenagers and young adults, most of them cant afford a 70k car.
And what Z are you comparing to the Vette?
no Z ever made can compare to a vette..lol

he was talking about the introduction of the Z...1st time ever in the states...he wasnt saying "Zs are faster than vettes" but that they sold better and thus he is saying that since this is the first true skyline in america it "should" sell quite well...and as for the fanbase....that doesnt matter to people with money...they want something exclusive...and thus this will be a seller....the smart move for nissan would be to only release this model....and say no further models in america...that will only make it more "exclusive" and sales for the remaining stock will be huge....
i'd take a rine over a vette....although the new vettes look badass its out played....its a small variation on a familiar platform....the r36 looks soooooo different from its predecessors...
it looks like the 350Z all over again...

well considering that the 350z has had great sales in the US I don't think that would be a complaint for Nissan. I think she looks like the potential is there, but i am more interested in imports coming out in the 40k ish or less range. like the rumors of the new supra for example. the evo is my favorite in this range right now, but i can't justify the price increase for what seems like just not enough toys for money spent...
Fail.
OMGWTFBBQVTAKSKYRINE!!!
I'd much rather a GT-500, or z06, or Supra, or Evo, or anything that wasn't an overpriced, overhyped chunk of metal. I want to see it murk on a road course before I make any decisions about it.
AWD 450+HP, lets see if its actually as good as they are trying to make it out to be. Or lets watch it weigh 4000+lbs and FAIL.
