2008 Nissan Gtr Pricing

[ferni]

I was expecting closer to 150k, but these prices seem much more reasonable. But 35k difference between the 2 models seems a bit extreme? Wonder what the differences are.

[n15m0]

seeing as its out of reach for most it may be more constructive to speculate on whats going to happen to the prices of the current and previous generations of GTR's...

any thoughts?

The pricing for the new GTR seems reasonable considering all the hype that has been going on leading up to the launch...anyone who was contemplating or can afford an R34 GTR at 70K would definately be considering the newer option...

On the other hand, the price of 34GTRs will probably drop a fair bit making it affordable to 33 and 34GTT owners to upgrade

But those people wont be able to get rid of the cars they have. I was expecting these to cost much more, like over $200k.

Base model: AUD$95,000 + ORC

Hispec model: AUD$130,000 + ORC.

so wat are the differences (except for the price) between the base model and 'hispec' model?

[JVP]

130k for the performance of a 911 turbo.

i know what id take, and alot of others will.

so wat are the differences (except for the price) between the base model and 'hispec' model?

i thought there was three:

a base model

a V-Spec

and an Evolution?

i heard that the Evolution model had 400kw or so?

i read that somewhere.....dont quote me.

I think those prices are good for what you get....however whether or not nissan struggles to sell them remains to be seen. Yes there are a lot more people earning bigger bucks these days but Nissan will have to be able to sway them from brands such as porsche etc.

My understanding about the differences between the two models does justify the prices difference. Unconfirmed of course but I hear rumours of around about 100ps/hp power hike....lightweight interior and possibly cage.....bigger brakes/wheels and other enhancements.

As for what it will do to the pricing of 34/33/32 gtrs it will be interesting....IMHO I think the 34 price will drop but 33/32's won't be affected as much.

I think, from what I remember reading, the Evolution model is coming out something like 2 years later and so they haven't set its price yet.

The R32 GTR sold for $110,00 and that is in 1992 ( Im pretty sure, maybe 1991).

They only bought in 100 and could not even sell all of them, they struggled to shift the last few!

Relatively that was a lot of money back then (is today as well) plus the recession was caining everyone 18% interest rates :S

[R32zilla]

Yes, my understanding is that the 2 models will be like vspec and non-vspec of r34 series.

All I know is different aero, brakes, not sure on engine specs.

[dan_the_man]

I couldnt imagine nissan aus selling many with prices like that

is alot cheaper than I thought they'd be

Did you expect it to be 350z prices?

[kralster]

^^^^

Actually no-one knows anything. It's all speculation.

I'll wait till I see a Nissan press releases before making any claims. Expect for one. That this car is gonna rock.

[redevil]

That's not the pricing my uncle works for nissan marketing department... there is no confirmed price yet as the jap spec does not conform with adr so they are working out price and quantity at the moment...

[dan_the_man]

what are we all going to talk about once the car is released? there will be no more guessing... spy shots... wishful thinking

all it will be in hearing about some rich mofo who has bought one and brings it on cruises occassionally... just like when the 34 gtrs were very rare and $110k plus

[KISIN]

Sucks that USA will get it.

[R32zilla]

A local tuning shop has expressed interest in purchasing the first one for WA.

And the pricing was confirm through a dealer principle.

ahh fair enuff

cheers

thanks for clearing that up.

I remember reading the same thing

But still.. 135 is not bad when you consider the new M3 is about 150 or so by the time we see it. I would expect the evo to be about the 150k when it comes out.

As for how many they will sell, hard to say. Depends on what you wanted. If you wanted the badge and did not care for absolute performance then you would go an M3 or Boxster, but if you wanted the fastest, then you'd go the GTR?

wtf is the difference between the hi spec model and the normal model?

single turbo and twin turbo??!?
