In addition, a new “Black Edition”– with unique seats, interior colors and wheels –

I still don't see that many of these on the road.
I've recently seen a young white lady driving a GT-R around my town quite often. I want to ask her a bit about it, but I only see her on the opposite road as me.
Anyway, the new GT-R sounds awesome! The lack of a manual transmission doesn't bother me any more.

Gtr's are amazing. My uncle has one and I have taken it to the beach a few times over the summer and it hauls ass. It spins 2nd gear. It is extremely easy to gain power. It has Cobb tuning, full hks exhaust(sounds amazing) and k an drop in filters at the moment. More mods coming. I raced a c5 z06 with 694 whp and beat him from 20mph until 135-140mph then he pulled me. I want to own a Gtr. Incredible machines.

does the hugeness actually help it from a handling perspective? Like does being wider and longer have an effect on handling, or does the width/length affect the effectiveness of the AWD system?
I just don't know why they haven't made a smaller one with no back seat...drop that shiz into a tiny car and it would be a world beater.
