They don't look it. There's a split/indentation down the spokes leading to the hub.

Who cares about the wheels. A car that fast around the ring could have hot pink rims and I would still want to drive it.....hahahahahahaha

but of course as soon as I bought it the wheels would be changed....

The way i understand it the V-Spec is kind of like an uber version of the GT-R, kind of the like CSL was to the E46 M3. More power and lighter.

I was a die hard GT-R Fanboy...
but then I saw it live infront of me... I sat in it.. I turned the engine on...

don't know... I wouldn't buy this car based on looks alone...
my friend ordered the premium edition GT-R which is reserved only for the first few buyers of it... he is getting it in June/July... I'll write up a review of the car then when he gets it (and if I get a ride)

Sort of. There will likely be an even higher level NISMO version as well. Historically the GT-R has had several variants throughout its life. It wouldn't surprise me if the new one is the same. But, some of those version may be JDM only.

If you're friend is in Canada, someone lied to him, the premium version is the only one we are getting.

The GTR is already ridiculous. 0 to 60 in 3.4. 7.38 around the Nurburing. Sure the interior looks like shit but you can legitimately sit four people in it. Plus you can drive it in the snow.

If there ever was a real life Batmobile - this is it!

Nothing else compares. And the killer is the price $80k in Canada! Less in U.S.

I am just so sad I will not be able to get one. I would have cruised around like f***ing Robin Hood killing Porsches, Ferraris, Lambos, and Ms - then I would have beaten up the drivers, sold their cars and distributed the money to the poor

Instead it will be a bunch of douchebags paying over sticker and if I ever catch them in my 335i beating them up will much more difficult since I'll be so tired driving to keep up...
