Smile > 2014 Nissan GT-R + More Auto News

Hi Member's,
I like the GT-R's & I like the improvements for 2014, but I don't like the price...(I'd take a new 2014 Corvette for $53K instead.)
If I won a big lotto, then I'd get them both...
Do you like the GT-R ? If you had $100K + to buy a `ride, What would you buy ? ? (Go ahead & dream `Dreams are still `free)
2014 Nissan GT-R Priced From $99,590+ + +


BY NELSON IRESON

Jan 24, 2013




2014 Nissan GT-R

A far cry from the 2008 launch pricing of just $69,850, the 2014 Nissan GT-R's base price of $99,590 significantly revises its price-performance ratio that made it such a stunning offering five years ago. At the same time, the latest prices are only about $3,000 higher than last year's, and the 2014 model brings with it many improvements.

It's not entirely fair to compare early Nissan GT-R base prices with those of the current model, however. The entry-level GT-R back in 2008 was far less well-equipped than the base 2014 GT-R, explaining much of the price difference, and it was also less powerful--480 horsepower versus the 2014 model's 545.

The GT-R Premium's starting price of $99,590 is nearly $10,000 less dear than the GT-R Black Edition's $109,300. Either



is still a value proposition against alternatives like the Corvette ZR1 or the2013 SRT Viper, especially once the GT-R'sblistering acceleration is taken into account.

Wherever you land on the GT-R price-performance value proposition, however, you can either acknowledge its stunning capability, or be forced to once you run up against one.

Well they haven't got the 2013 numbers in. Ford will be on top. It just makes me sick how crappy the V-6 Camaro was - not everyone can afford a $40,000 SS.

I would love to get my hands on a GT-R. Crazy acceleration, crazy grip, crazy power, and I love the looks of it. I would also enjoy driving a car nicknamed Godzilla
