Is the upcoming Nissan GT-R going to be a 911 Turbo killer?
If you take the cover of Motor Trend’s yet to be released December issue as gospel, you might think so. Although the official details are still a bit sketchy, the rumor is that the hot shoes over at MT coaxed a 0-60 times of 3.5 seconds and then tripped the lights fantastic in the quarter mile at 11.7 seconds. Top speed is estimated in the 190+ mph range.
Coming in at just a bit under $80,000 the GT-R may just rewrite the book in setting performance in the under $100k category. Promising 3 levels of performance the “entry-level” model should sport a 3.6 liter V6 with 450hp. A hardcore high performance level model will follow later boasting 530hp and enough carbon fiber to make a F-22 raptor envious.
The GT-R is set to debut officially next week at the Tokyo Auto Show, so stayed tuned for more details as they emarge.
