Such an amazing car technologically. Just wish I could get over it being an eyesore and sized like a minivan. (And that was before it added the 2000 Eclipse like bumper )

Also here's the HD link embedded for people

Man - Nissan definitely delivers if you're looking for a challenging engineering project. I can't believe how they continue to squeeze more and more out of the car. I love it.. but would hate to buy a new one just to wonder how next years is going to trump me. Then again, theres aftermarket...

I think that the biggest thing that would improve the track experience would be to drop several hundred pounds, but then again, it doesn't seem to be effected by all that fat, so maybe not...

For the amount of weight this thing carries, it sure is one nimble fat chick.

A real transmission and a body by Pinifarina or Zagato and that car would be worth $200K, as it stands I couldn't even look at the video for mor than 15 seconds.

I don't understand. Pinifarina's most notable customer doesn't even offer "a real transmission". Nissan has broke the mold. People complain about maintenance prices as if they are higher than all the comparable competition. The entry price of the vehicle would negate that anyway. I always thought the 911 was grossly overpriced and nissan imo has substantiated my opinion.

But they had in the past, back when cars were mechanical works of art, not a collection of servos and software for old bloated filthy rich men that think have lost the ability to steer and shift at the same time.
