Tere Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 The GT-R isn't scheduled to hit the Japan market until this fall. Typically, it's 6-8 months before any other market gets the car. In the US, the GT-R is currently scheduled for release sometime in the spring of '08, and if Nissan holds true to form, you can tack a few months on that, so maybe summer of '08 for the US market. To my knowledge, dealers here haven't even started taking orders. My guess is they'll start taking orders in Jan '08 with an Aug '08 delivery. I thought odd that Nissan-UK still lists the GT-R as a concept, but Nissan-USA lists it as a done deal. I wonder if your dealer is planning on importing the Japan spec before the UK release?

Thats pretty much what i thought, I expected to se it in about 12 months. If mh are importing JDM GTR's here for £55k then how much will they be over here as UK cars??

Zedrush Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 hmm if 12 months time I might be up for getting one although did have my eye on the new Supra if it ever gets released I wonder how much insurance will be for a 26 year old Also stupid question why when they test cars do they always cover the body work sometimes part of the car or all of the car with that black vynal cover, do they just forget to take it off?

My insurance is £2300 so yours shouldn't be much different on a GTR They put the black stuff on the car to try and stop photographers getting photo's of their cars before they want the press to have them. Also probably trying to keep things quiet from rival manufacturers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GC350z Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Most dealers should be happy to take an order now. We all know the car is coming and it’s a safe bet that numbers to each country will be limited. Based on that most dealers wont even get a showroom model. If they take an order now they can tell Nissan GB in advance that they require x number. It’s a big deal for them to sell their top model.

Rob_Quads Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Interesting developments about the warranties - Nissan are considering voiding 2nd owner warranties if they are sold on within a year (to stop people flipping them and making some money on them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
