    Default 2012 GTR 0-60 in 2.9???

    http://www.autoblog.com/2010/12/02/2...n-2-9-seconds/

    It's still a NISSAN? Does that argument even apply?

    $118k CAD out the door, any discounts?

    Does this mean you can abuse the launch control all you want and not have to worry about warranty?

    $200K for a Porsche Turbo S ain't happening in this life time but why not a NIssan!!!

    I was talking to a guy who works at Nissan this past week, and he told me people are spending more on maintenance on a GTR than an exotic

    Damn. Why can't they include a 4-5 year maintenance program and build it in to the price.

    Did the MSRP go up? Didn't they start at $95K a few years back?

    Brasso was selling them with $10000 in prepaid maintenance last I heard.

    Yeah it's gone up every year, 09 were $81,900 but dealers were marking them up heavy in Alberta. The 10's went for $98,900 then the 11's bumped up another $1K and then the 12's now go for $109,900.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see the 13's price hike again. Supposedly the MY13 is going to bump up to 570hp.

    I now they did this when the 09's first came out, but from what I remember it was additional cost on top of MSRP.

    2008: 1 CAD = 101 Yen

    Today: 1 CAD = 73 Yen

    That's why Japanese are so desperate to build cars in US and Mexico for NA consumption. And besides the upgrades, why GT-R has been moving up in price.

    The MSRP has been steadily climbing but as you pointed out, the 2012 one is quite a bit faster than the original, which is actually quite mind boggling if you think about it...
    You have a couple of photos that are great... you must be very good at photoshop!

    Wow, so this thing can go 0-60 quicker than a liter bike. Pretty amazing.

    Why not get a used 997 Turbo? You can get a really nice one for the price of a new GTR. I like both, but the Porsche is way more rounded.

    you'll be on the waiting list for a 2013, I think all the 12s are reserved and or sold... unless you pick up a US unit
