I think the GTR is ugly. And it is not offered in a manual trans.

the DSG or w/e trans they offer wont be that far off from the ferrari's and porsches option so you wont loose any performance, but you loose some fun IMHO and im sure there will be a swap out there some one will discover perhaps using the new 370Z tranny. PERHAPS. would b e a feat though seeing as how you'd still need to toss on the transfer case and all that garbage

I've read rumors that the manual trans version was having some problems with pasing emissions, but that they might have a manual available in another year or so. I don't think the manual would be that big of a deal since I think I read the 6 speed trans it already has is paddle shifted like an F-1, Ferrari, or Lambo trans are. If it works well enough for those cars, who am I to complain or 2nd guess the designers lol.

I think it looks like a boxy version of the 350z. It even has similar quarter windows. And the mirrors are GIANT

probably about as many people that swapped the AWD G35 drivetrain into a 350Z and added twin turbos.
