they say it will run 11.7 stock

I'd buy it. It's just too bad that they toned down the front end styling a bit for the production car. With that kind of power and all wheel drive, I don't doubt the 11.7 quarter.

I'm betting the US market will never see it.

We'll get some watered down Infiniti G35.

I wonder how much it would cost to own one

The MSRP will be right around $85,000 but you'll never buy one for anything close to that. My guess would be somewhere right around 6 figures or so intially. The car will be arriving in June 2008 with 480hp and 434lb/ft of torque and a tight (but usable) back seat. The car should've been produced with a 6 speed manual and not the damn automated manual that it's got.

That depends on your preferences. Looks aside, it's tough to get that kind of performance in that price range with 4 usable seats.

So does it have a torque converter or a clutch with a sequential manual?....

It's a sequential manual.

I just got out of class and it will be here for sure. The sequential 6 speed is from what the reps say not going to be the but it will be a 6 speed manual. We'll see when it gets here. It sucks I won't be Nissan/infiniti Master by then or i would get to test it at the track for new model training.

I work at a Nissan Dealership and it is scheduled to be here in June. We already have our first one spoken for. They say that only 800-1500 will be made. Sticker will be 72-85k and we're marking them up for $25,000.00.

The car is going to have three modes....Regular, Snow, & a Performance mode. No 6 speeds are scheduled to be available and the top of the line version has been said to free up 2-300 lbs.

Of course this is all hearsay and if you want one PM me I'll see what I can do for you =D
