2017 Nissan GT-R

Wow, what a car. Horsepower and torque has been bumped up for the 2017 model. The 2018 gets a total refresh and I "assume" more power and torque as well. I've watched some videos of the car being driven and then punched from a roll,........INSANE.
I've always wanted one in the past. If I could afford one, I would buy one in a heartbeat, especially in that color in the video. GORGEOUS! It is WAY out of my league unfortunately.

**keep speakers off when watching video, crap music.

I agree beautiful car, awd, twin turbo v6, lotta car for the money. If I had 100k I'd buy one in a heart beat. Dont know if you have seen the "

ROG13 mentions, 'beautiful car'. I can't quite agree. Amazing performance, sure, but not beautiful, IMO. I see them at track days, they are monsters. The improvements for 2017 are excellent, virtually makes the 'base' car a Nismo/Track version out of the box, with luxury stuff. And I do like that cool unique orange/rust color. About time they fixed the interior, too, good job, Nissan.

I will agree with just about everything you posted here. Not the most best looking car out there.
But, I do love the improvements. Especially on the interior. Much neater and leaner looking. Beast car for sure!

Very true sir.
And I will say, the Mustang has the best lines and looks out there, in my opinion.

OH, I like it too. A lot actually. I've liked them when they first came out. The new model looks great. The interior looks 100% better in this model year.
I think next year it gets a total refresh, inside and out.

They look real "plain" and subdued until it pulls up next you, which I like l. It's not flashy it lets it's performance do all the talking.

Yeah,......it's a fast car for sure.
Even without the awd, that car would be beastly. And it's only a V6.
