Article on auto blog reporting that Ghosn hasn't and may not green light a next gen GTR. Apparently he only approved this one because he was promised it would make money.
And only selling 6,000 units over 4 years, even if it WAS profitable, is immaterial. And it doesn't seem to be making a ton of money with that kind of small scale and massive price increases... Sounds like they were losin their ass at the beginning and tryin to catch up with the price... Except that car becomes pretty unattractive if the price creeps much higher, IMO.

 

That car is unattractive at any price. IMO. Just not a looker. The beauty is under the skin.

 

Well since you bring it up. The SRT6 is much better looking than the GTR. Power will never fix ugly.

Delusional...GTR is fuglier than my girlfriend and faster than me in bed.

There fixed!

 

I love watching people argue about something that is subjective. I find the gtr to be incredibly good looking.

 

overrated boring pieace of crap... these car is ugly and looks and sounds boring.

 

the AutoBlog article lists the fuel economy as: FUTILE

 

Haters own the internets.

 

Amen. If an 8 second STREET LEGAL car doesn't "do anything for you," GTFO of here. The fact that it's so "docile" and doesn't do it incredibly obnoxiously is a testament to the car. No one said it's for everyone, but wow, how someone can't appreciate something like this .

 

For the same money, I would rather have a Porsche over a GTR. BUT how can you not like that video? I mean c'mon. Here's a car that looks pretty much like every other GTR on the road, but can do 8.9 @ 170mph. That is absolutely INSANE. I would love to ride in that car. If you are a car guy, you have to respect this machine. Those calling it boring, soulless and ugly remind me of those "pointy elbows" nerds who would point out flaws in supermodels. The GTR doesn't have to be your cup of tea, but damn, this car is amazing and you know it.

 

+1 though the only caveat to that statement is that being docile along with its amazingly high limits can make it really annoying to drive on the street. At normal and slightly illegal speeds would feel like you are taking a nap. Having 1500 HP and only being able to use it for maybe .05% of the time could be very very irritating, probably like riding a Hayabusa in New York City traffic. But I would love to beat the crap out of that car for a while.
