    Default SpecV is NOT the "high-performance" GT-R

    http://www.motorauthority.com/nissan...nce-model.html

    Nissan's chief engineer has confirmed that there is another "high-performance" version of the GT-R and this one could have up to 600hp!!

    I was kind of hoping they would have another model beyond the specV, I wonder what pricing will be considering how expensive the specV is

    I would jump off a building if I just bought a specV.

    Somehow I highly doubt that, but yeah, you might be a little pissed knowing a better version is en route. Especially thinking you already had the better version.

    Either way, not a problem most people will have to worry about.

    considering the price of the Spec-V, this new "high performance" GTR would not be a car on my list to buy if i had the money. It'll probably be in the ferrari/lambo range and I'd definitely take those over a nissan any day.

    So for the Spec V they dropped a few pounds, didn't bump up the power, changed a few exterior items and are charging double the price....

    What's the point of buying the spec V version again - I must have missed it?
