The next best thing to a GT-R: luxury GT-R accessories
You didn't think that Nissan was simply going to settle for selling the GT-R, did you? And did you think Nissan would forget about the folks who can't afford the affordable-for-its-performance GT-R? Oh no. Just like the other marques that the GT-R swims with, you can now kit yourself out in gear that will probably let everyone know that you don't actually own the car.
Like the car -- and recent gift trends -- it's all about leather and carbon fiber. However, unlike the car, these items don't appear to have bang-for-buck as core values. With a T-shirt costing $AUD120 ($US105 at today's exchange rate), you will have to earn your way into this apparel.
Thanks for the tip, Kris!

Well, the gloves - being fingerless - at least let you tune the stereo and work the nav system.
Now, if you're a cyclist they make you a racer!

I love wearing leather gloves while driving.
The briefcase would be nice too.

The polo shirt looks really nice I would get it if I could. Heck I wouldn't even care that I don't drive a Nissan, it looks really nice

And where can we buy this stuff anyway? Can anybody read Japanese and link to the pages on Nissan Japan?

The gloves are nice. I have driving gloves also, it makes a world of difference if you have sweaty palms.
