sh@un Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 when they sold the R32 they only sold one model - and it was the GTR.. so don't lose hope! Yeah- what they may intend is only 1 GT-R model- not normal and 'track' like with the Tree-Fiddy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/183933-want-a-2008-gtr/page/2/#findComment-3331772 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R34 VSPEC Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Yep, spoke to a good friend at Nissan and I have expressed interest. Have got me name down for one with anticipated arrival in Beisbane mid 2008, approx 120 to 130K on the road. I drive a light tuned GTR34 Vspec so I'm expecting any model of the 2008 one to better...that is from factory!

Duncan Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Interesting....if it really does come in at only 120k we might have to replace the Z.....

HotPlates Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Also since they're bringing it in officially, if we get the low end model, we can never import the high end model from Japan. What about the Z32 300ZX? We are able to import these even though they were sold here in NA form. We can import 2 & 2+2 turbo models & convertibles aswell. I think if the high end GTR is classified as a different model, then we will be able to import it. It's the same deal with the Sti S204.

r32line Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 From my understanding (and per this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=182996 ) the price of $120-130 will be the top spec model and not the lower versions. I believe it is called the GTR EVO. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/183933-want-a-2008-gtr/page/2/#findComment-3331969 Share on other sites More sharing options...

markimak Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 well actually the only GTR we've ever had was the 32 and in some ways was superior to the japanese version... so don't jump to any conclusions just yet boys. yes.. better gearbox apparently Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/183933-want-a-2008-gtr/page/2/#findComment-3332742 Share on other sites More sharing options...

djr81 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Well I hate all of you. Hang on... If Nissan bring it in on a full volume basis (Which doesn't mean they will sell many) then kiss goodbye to any RAWS/SEVS imports at a later date. Here is hopiing they do what Mitsubishi did & limit it to 100 per annum. Better result long term, but you can kiss goodbye to the prospect of them selling the cars for $120k if that is what happens.

But you CANT import an STI S204! If your talking about that example on Prestige thats a personal import and a whole different ball game when it comes to importing.

Laurence Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I remember being told very confidently by Nissan that the S15 200SX would definitely not be sold in Australia and that the R34 GT-R definitely would. So until I see the brochure in the dealer I won't believe it. If anyone actually does want one, I am in Japan and could arrange a personal import for a price Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/183933-want-a-2008-gtr/page/2/#findComment-3333255 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest B34ST GTR Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 im very sceptical about the top model '08 GTR being $120-130k on road......you are still paying more than that for a top end GTR 10 years old with 50,000kms on it!!!! There is a R34 00' NuR Spec(rare in green) soon to be for sale here in Perth at 'Auto Wholesale' for around the $200k mark according to the sales manager there...
