The
Nissan GT-R has been an Internet and magazine sensation from the day the GT-R prototype was unveiled. While team Ghosn no doubt loves the free press, only Nissan could present the complete GT-R story from its 1969 beginning to today. Nissan has developed a global portal for enthusiasts and prospective buyers to drool over the GT-R, study the supercar's specs, and learn the history of Japan's four-wheeled golden boy. When you enter the site, go to "The World of Nissan GT-R" and click any of the red dots over Japan to travel the GT-R's decades long timeline of racing success. There are also plenty of pictures and videos for you to peruse, as well as links on all points of the globe where the GT-R story unfolded. If you have any interest at all in the GT-R, the site's worth the visit.
Thanks for the tip, Chris!

I am really tired of it. Is that autoblog is going to be GTRblog? How much Nissan paid yours? If there is 10 news about GTR a week, why not do the same for Prius/Veyron/7-speed DSG/Diesel Hydbids/everything else? Is that GTR is the only technical hero? and is that this blog only focus on this "technical hero"? Is that only GTR has its offical website? Why not do a news for every single car that has an offical website? Yes, I can skip it, and if that's the case, anyone can leave GTRblog alone. That's true. That's ENOUGH !!

Whoa there, nobody said you had to read it.

The GT-R is one of the most significant (and freakin' awesome) NA-market introductions of the past two decades. No complaints here on the updates--especially if/when they get the real three-pedal manual in there.

I've seen enough of those crappy GTR news. Who cares about their website? Don't get me wrong, I SIMPLY LOVE THIS CAR, but please post something more interesting like this size-comparison with a NSX:

BTW: I've seen people offering GTRs here in Europe. 140k$ up to 155k$. Looking at these interior shots I don't believe this is going to sell here. Centerconsole looks crappy to me. I usally don't care much about looks but for a price as high as this one, people will start looking at every detail of a car. The steeringwheel somehow reminds me of my LogiTech G25, with more junk in the middle.
Again, I love how this car beats Porsches on tracks, but I'd still take one Caterham CSR (pure fun) and one Evo IX (pure fun with family).
