Xenicide
I don't think I'll ever be able to think of this car as a supercar.

I agree with Xenicide. And Porsches aren't Supercars either. The only Porsches that I would think of as supercars are the GT1, the Carrera GT, and the 959. The GT2 is on the border.

Losing weight and adding to the price. You know how they say less is more? Well here it is put in motion. lol

didn?t the original GTR beat the spec-v at the Tsukuba circuit... i read the nissan drivers somehow couldn?t beat the time they had posted on the normal GTR with the spec-V.

Yes it did. This just doesn't seem to be worth the premium. Either that or the original GT-R was simply that great.

what i thing is that, that engine was made by a good craftmen NISSAN says that they are all hand made not all engine make the same HP which really matters the most for every buyer
maybe am wrong but its just what i was thinking

I will bet that most of them are already bought by dealers, which will then sell them with a nice premium. Too expensive over the stock one, i mean doing all the upgrades yourself with even higher quality aftermarket parts will not cost you even 1/4 of the premium you pay for the Spec-v. Hell you can even throw in a Hennessy performance upgrade to 700hp and still not even come close. But i guess when you compare it to the lexus LF-A it's a little puppy price wise.

I agree with all your points... but I heard that Nissan actually introduced more advanced technology for the car's 4WD system and engine management system. I'm not sure though. Can someone confirm?

I know nothing on that but I would be willing to guess that the only reason they are jacking up the price is because of the limited production run.
Advance technology in 4wd would be pointless because putting it into a car is actually cheap but to develop it costs big bucks. Thus pointless.

Maybe this will cause people to recognize what kind of car I drive now, so that I don't get the confused brow.
SE-R Spec-V ya!

im pretty sure the only real reason its this expensive is due to the limited amount of this version they will be selling. personally id buy the GT-R rather then the SpecV

I think the extra price comes from 1)Carbon fibre bodywork 2)Almost-racing brakes that can take a beating all day long, worth ?36,000 as a set [OUCH] and maybe an exclusivity premium. But still, whilst I'm a die-hard GT-R fan, that's just not worth it. Buy a NISMO Clubsport kit, take out your own back seats and paint it Midnight Purple. It'd cost way less.

?36,000 what the hell? You sure on that, that is almost 2x more than what Ferrari, Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini charge for their fully Ceramic Composite brakes....Hell for 15k you can get a very nice Brembo ceramic kit. This is a bit ridiculous. And CF is not that expensive these days anymore. It just doesn't add up, seems like you are paying hard for the extra Spec-V badge.

The spec-v also has larger turbo internals which would produce more boost and slightly different driving dynamics to the standard r35.

Meh turbo internals would set you back a few hundred $ and a few hrs of labour. Not really a big deal, and if you really want u can always get some HKS Turbos for it.

As Michael Douglas may have you believe in Wall Street, ''Greed is not good.''

the internals should but forced into a 370z to shave more weight, a tuner should attempt this

That beats or matches times of the current Ferrari's, my loved Porsches, the Gallardo etc etc etc at a fraction of the price. Another dumb post by good old CarFan.
The Spec V is over-priced but to call it just a Nissan is really nothing short of stupidity these days, sorry no offense.
