What i'd like to see.... the $70K 480hp AWD Twin-Turbo Nissan GTR vs the (most likely lighter) $54K 412hp RWD E92 BMW M3.

With an estimated MSRP of $70,000, expect that to cost about P7M+ if there are units that actually make it here...

Yung Gran Turismo na GT-R Concept eh yung 7 speed automatic at based sa 2001 Concept(yung may rear spoiler na tumataas every 100kph).The production version will be more akin to the GTR Proto.Most likely nasa 6 to 7M ang price nang grey market GTR's here(ayon sa relative ko na importer) pag dumating nya siya at grabe people would surely buy this one over the M3.Patay ang Corvette ZO6 dito...

quite funny, but can this still seat four comfortably?

the R33 GT-R was noted for having a very comfortable seats. plus a roomy trunk. dunno about the R34 though.

The R33 Skyline GT-R and R34 Skyline GT-R had similar dimensions, with the R34 coupe having a 2 inch shorter wheelbase than the R33 coupe & sedan. (better performance? more agile?)

R33 Skyline GT-R

R34 Skyline GT-R

Not sure about the upcoming GT-R though, it looks like its going a 2+2.

It's roomy because it was based on a big saloon in the first place.

This upcoming Skyline will most likely be smaller inside, being based on the 350Z platform.

In pictures, it looks more taut and compact than the old ones.

The R34 Skyline Coupe has a shorter wheelbase than the Skyline sedan.
The wheelbase of the V35 Skyline(G35) sedan and coupe are both longer than that of the R34 models.

Being a 4-seater coupe, they'd most likely base it on the longer updated FM platform used by the Infiniti G35(and upcoming new Skyline models).

For now the 350Z and Infiniti FX continue on the older FM platform (previous Infiniti G35 and V35 Skyline)
