Nissan GT-R Nismo costs $149,990 in the US

While i am a fan of the GTR, $150k is definitely pushing it. I'm sure they are trying to hint at a higher price tag for the next gen GTR but they will seriously have to step up exterior and interior design moving forward.

Still the fact remains that this car is a track beast.

Interiors on Ferraris are not all that great, certainly not to the level of Pagani or the VAG based cars. The exterior of the car, while possibly not appealing to your tastes, is still one of the most aerodynamically efficient cars or any automotive manufacturer, with a sub 0.30 coefficient of drag.

You must remember that the GT-R Nismo is sold alongside the GT-R. While it may seem steep, considering the GT-R came on the market with a $70,000+ base price before dealer tax, it still outperforms cars costing several times as much.

No ones debating their performance figures hence my "track beast" comment. While Ferrari's interiors could use visual aid, the fit and finish is well done.

The interior of the 150,000 GTR is inferior to their own 35,000 Maxima.

Have you ever sat in one? The thing squeaks and rattles doing 60.

A lot of cars that cost six figures creak, rattle and emit "weird" noises. Some traveling less than 60mph.

The interior of $250,000 Ferrari is inferior to a Maxima. People over look it because it has real carbon fiber and a prancing horse on the badge.

If you want something that says I spent a lot of money and will impress your date with fancy quilted stitching, soft leathers as far as the eye can see and chiseled glass/plastic that looks like the finest crystal, go buy a Porsche, Aston or Lamborghini.

I remember being in the Nissan showroom about 3 years ago and the new GTR has a sticker on it of about $79K. What happened? Are our obamma bucks totally worthless now?
