I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

evo concept

ya, wait for it, wait for it... notice it costs 95k$... remember it doesn't matter whether we get it or not you'll never own one.

At least the evo and STi are reasonably priced. Who fucking cares if Nissan brings over the GT-R if they can't bring it in under 50k$?

i doubt even for the american market it will be 95k but i can guarantee it will be over 50, probably closer to 65

You're fucking nuts if you think that it's going to cost anywhere close to that. It's being built to compete with the 911 in the US market. A base 911 costs "$69,300" msrp. Nissan/Infinity will have to drastically undercut the price due to the cult 911 following. Nobody would buy a GT-R in the US if they could have a 911 for less. I could buy a R34 GT-R that had been fully legalized by the now retardly-fucked-over MotoRex for $95k.

The GT-R isn't going to be as cheap as a STi or Evo, because it's not in the same market as an STi or Evo. I guaran-fucking-tee that the most traded-in cars for a GT-R are those that are dominating the import-sports car market right now. People will trade-up to the greater performance when it arrives, don't kid yourself. The GT-R has always and will always be a better, and therefore more expensive, car than the Evo/STi cars.

By the way, that new Evo looks better every time I see it, especially when keeping in mind that the majority of the stupid gills and swoops won't make it to production.

true, however i dont think "drastically undercut" price is true, like i said, i guesstimate it will hover right about 65k

and btw mitsubshi is no where near above the water... the only reason its still around is cause chrysler still has there pocketbook in them, which they are pulling out cause its a no win situation for them. and the new evo looks like a srt-4 on roids with a cross between the new a4's

::BACK ON TOPIC::


if they made the grill the same color of the car it would be cooler. looks too much like an SRT4 neon or a charger with the grill/hood like that
