Those of you who went to the Los Angeles Auto Show had a chance to see this in person but for everyone else, here is the beast in all her glory!























Highlights:

-Power increased to 600hp and 480 lb-ft via the use of larger turbos and ingnition timing tweaks

-Liberal use of carbon fiber including revised front bumper, side skirts, rear bumpers and new larger spoiler

-Stiffer springs, dampers, as well as larger sway bars

-Increased adhesive bonding in the chassis and structural seam welding to increase overall rigidity

-Redesigned seats, steering wheel, pedals, gauges, and shifter

-Exclusive Matte silver paint with red accents (LA Auto Show version)

-Gloss black 20" Rays wheels wrapped in 255-40RF-20 Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT600 DSST Tires

 

Man how did I miss that lol
I was at the L.A. show on Fri and saw the burnt orange color GT R but missed this beast.

Lots of nice cars this year and I'll be turning 50 next month so I was really looking at those new Buicks :)

 

It was on the other side of the Nissan display, kind of hidden :D

Next to it was the Sentra NISMO and Juke NISMO RS there was alot to see

Believe it or not I was joking around and sat in a Buick lol!

 

wait, 255/40/20? that's it? and runflats? huh....

 

This is a repost Wais!!! Seen this on the Z forums =P

 

I didn't notice that even though I posted the info lol

$400 per tire, wowzers!

Shhhhh Robert! :P

 

 

that's so narrow though... thought it'd run at least 275/35's all around. :D

 

I honestly have no clue why they decided to go so narrow!

 

yah, probably the weight and adhesion with the computers.. running wider tires might just be extra resistance and energy wasted. cars like this is geared only to win track races i suppose. the complete opposite of them hella flusha toilet group.

 

But looking at all their other versions they all run 285's or greater, it's just weird that they changed that formula for this car
