Rumor for US price guidance: 40,000 - 4cyl 59.9k - 6cyl Dealers may set price accordingly. As such, 2019 cars are expected to be pricey to say the least, unless they impose some sort of restriction (unlikely IMO).

that is HIDEOUS (at least from the aerial view).

Fair point and one I've seen others raise, but at the same time the R34 is essentially the same car as the R33 (much to the chagrin of elitists). They welded the C-pillar to increase body rigidity, tossed in the Getrag 6spd, and changed the interior and exterior aesthetics and called it even. A...

As comical as that sounds, it is definitely outside of their usual practices so there is likely some of that lol.

Much larger market, way more people involved, totally different beast from EU, JP, AU, etc. They are working on it though, as demonstrated by the marketing pushes, most recently the auction for the first A90.

Update on sales side: ~6-7k units planned for 2019 (Worldwide), car is backordered for over a year as far as presales in other countries (this wont affect other market allocations), and yearly projection for 2020 onward is ~1k cars per month. Apparently the current success is already considered...

Sean definitely knows his stuff and is the Skyline guru of gurus.

qft, but it's so close to Detroit that it may just be overlooked. it's also building some hype just prior to NAIAS so it's not all bad...

Just buy one in black; problem solved lol

Pretty much goes without saying. Nearly all forms of racing use drysump, and Super GT isn't necessarily great because they use bespoke 4cyl engines. I prefer GTE/GT300, etc where they retain and do development on factory components and engines.

A version of the A90 may have dry sump apparently, I'm guessing the GRMN because I didn't see anything of the sort on the real OE stuff (plus that would be real weird IMO). Cool stuff anyways.

US spec has reflector in the side of the bumper about the same place as the 86, so it will be a different cover, if my memory isn't failing me.

Well, to be fair they do have better steering feel than both the A70 and A80 (I prefer heavier steering with lots of feedback), not that it's hard to do so.

All good mate, you can buy the other head :)

Omg, like, it all makes sense now...

FDs are excellent handling cars and my favorite 90s model aesthetically, but the interior plastic trim isn't great quality wise, and they're a pain to mantain. The NSX is one of the most disappointing cars I have ever driven. It's the one vehicle where I feel the hype is very much undue, and...

I actually didn't consider the EU implication, but that's a good point. There's still a bunch of testing going on, so a bunch of variables in play, and the focus isn't even really on this atm. They need to launch the standard car first and then the fun stuff can begin in full force. There has...

I'm not going to elaborate further, but what the person that posted on Jalopnik wasn't entirely correct... that said, the premise isn't wrong :)

great article! interesting things of note: 1) In 2020, the 4-cylinder variant is to follow, which, however, is oriented primarily to the Asian region, in which penalty tax has to be paid for large-volume engines. (explains why there has been much less info on it and many of us speculated this...

probably so, but I cant blame you; Supras are great. The 32GTR is a shitbox (I've worked on quite a few), but the 33 and 34GTRs are also great cars despite some shortcomings in the RB26 (easily fixed with the aftermarket). I'd still prefer to have both a Supra and a Skyline, but it wouldn't...
