260k buys you alot of cars that have more exclusive badges rather than a Nissan badge.

That's the problem, they are basing the price on all the labour and R&D costs which means diddly squat when you try and sell a car. This is why so many people overprice modified cars. I couldn't care less if it cost £20k to fit a £1k exhaust.

Amazing car but as everyone else has said, crazy price.
Nice touch that they will customize it to your own tastes before you take delivery but then for that price you'd expect it, lol.

I can imagine some super rich business man buying it for huge number though. Quite something to tell your other high flying pals that you own the fastest GTR in the world.

I like the fact that they will completely change the car to suit you. But the price is a little silly.

It wast the Midlands Breakfast Club last year badged as 1200bhp but it hadn't achieved that figure then. There are R32/33's running more than that.

I doubt it will sell at that price. It's not the quickest anymore, last I heard it was broken and you can build the same again, for less.

If I was spending that cash I would be getting a Maclaren Merc and know it was going to be safe.


I do remember this car at Marham as it caused some critisism due to the fact it started in the 30mph area at 120mph. To put it into perspective when that car was hitting 170mph Andy Forrest was hitting 192mph and he went out the gate at 30mph

Well Said Steve, the clip on Youtube clearly shows the car thrashing through the gate at speed.

If my Lotto number came up today, that car "would not" be bought by me that is for sure. Someone said above that you can build one for similar, I would sooner set an objective of challenging Andy F and Simon with a monster Scoob

Rob

ps - where is my lotto ticket LOL
