Enough of geeky stuff more photo's
The face of the car

The GT-R Badge
Back
The projector headlamp
The side intake
A closer look at it
Side view
The 20inch alloy rim and the tyre are filled with nitrogen cause normal air contract and expend too much.
Brembo is used to stop the massive V6 twin turboKeyless entry....

and when you open the door your greeted by the Badge
Body hugging seats
The component that driver uses to change the GT-R direction, also with flappy paddle shift
The component that engange the very fast changing gear double clutch gearbox
The button that wakes up the "beast"
The dials that will dance when you put the floored to acceleratorwhen its light up...
The BOSE sound system which you can enjoy listening while speeding....haha
The 3 switches below are for the dare devils
1st switch: turn the Electronic stability off
2nd switch: Stiffen up the suspension
3rd switch: turn off the traction control


The original Nissan GT-R (7:26.70) already can lap the nurburgring ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%BCrburgring ) faster than a Porsche 911 GT2 (7:32.02)
A Nissan GT-R cost only 728k while the Porsche 911 cost 1.3m for a new one

"it pipped the Corvette Z06 in straight line, showed the Audi R8 the way home on the road and stopped the watch almost second ahead of the 911 GT3, Utterly staggering."

Nissan introduced the GT-R SpecV on January 7, 2009 at 2009 Tokyo Auto Salon
Exterior changes from the base GT-R consist of a carbon fiber rear spoiler, grille, and brake ducts, along with an exclusive Ultimate Black Opal paint job. Interior changes include a set of carbon fiber Recaro front seats with the rear seats being completely removed. Carbon fiber covers the center storage box, instrument panel, and replaces the majority of the interior trim.

The GT-R SpecV is powered by the standard twin-turbo 3,799 cc (3.8 L; 231.8 cu in) V6 with no increase in horsepower. A new high gear boost controller that allows a temporary increase in boost pressure to the IHI twin turbochargers, now larger than those on the standard GT-R, should deliver more torque in mid to high-range revs. Other mechanical changes include a titanium exhaust, reworked suspension, carbon ceramic brakes, and 20-inch (510 mm) NISMO wheels. Overall weight is decreased by 132 lb (60 kg) over the standard GT-R

I can't wait for the Nissan GT-R Spec V to reach our shores.
Hope to see it upclose and personal too.
