I'm kind of suprised. The GTR is a very very low seller, might as well make it bigger and more expensive eh?

Partially due to the hand assembly of parts they can only produce 1000 a month, however, at 12000 a year it would still outsell the r8 which for its price/market is a pretty good seller

My son hates it when I say the R35 looks like a taxi cab. Now, I can say the R36 looks like a overblown Genesis.
