Witness the birth of the first Japanese supercar to arrive on American shores. The 2008 Nissan GT-R is the next-generation Skyline GT-R, a car known and loved by Gran Turismo gamers for a decade in this country and in other world markets since 1989. The 2008 Nissan GT-R is rumored to have a twin-turbo V6 making about 450 horsepower hooked up to an all-wheel-drive system. Prices are expected to be in Corvette Z06 territory when the car goes on sale, and Nissan will release official details when the production version debuts at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show. Perhaps the Nissan isn’t a threat to the Viper, but there’s no discounting eager young buyers looking for the perfect ride to pimp for added power and performance.

About Christian Wardlaw
Christian Wardlaw joined Autobytel's Automotive Information Center (AIC) in January 2003, and current serves as Manager of Content Development for Autobytel. Previously, Christian spent eight years as Editor-in-Chief and Director of Automotive Data for Edmunds.com. A writer, editor, and automobile aficionado, Christian is a different sort of car enthusiast. His passion lies in the vehicles that people most often buy, rather than with high-performance sports cars or ultra-luxury sedans. “Given the choice to spend an hour with a Dodge Viper or a Honda Accord, I’ll choose the Accord,” he claims. Unless, of course, the driving venue is a racetrack. Christian has been a car enthusiast all of his life, uttering “car” as his first word while growing up in Detroit. A graduate of Western Michigan University, he holds a bachelor’s degree in English. His daily drivers include a 1994 Mazda Miata, a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata, and a 2005 Nissan Murano.
