new platform

new tranny

a new whizbang video game electronics
small production numbers

2 scenarios:
1 they are doing it to raise profile, PR, which would leave one to believe they will put out 'spin' and 'hype' to achieve their goal...they will lose money on each...smart business, perhaps that's why they are the Japanese = of dodge

2 they are making a profit on it...doubt it, but if so the car must be junk, and time will tell it's true 'value', the C&D car had <4k miles and was purportedly malfuntioning...this a car vetted by the factory, just for the purpose of generating positive reviews...

i like how you act like this is something new for Nissan.... they have been doing the GTR thing in the same style since the 80s... and that car is still loved today... the R32......


nissan did it... cause they can..... and the new GTR is an amazing car.....


im sure one will hand you your ass one day...
