I just want Scion to come to Canada... I'd buy a Scion.

If nissan is gonna offer a sub subcompact maybe we will see the honda jazz here..

This would also compete with the echo which has been around for at least two years..

Makes sense..

One of Japan's most reliable car magazines, Holiday Auto, is reporting hat Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn will make a significant announcement oncerning the next generation GT-R at Nissan's Tokyo Show press briefing on Oct 22. he car will not appear, but critical information will be revealed.

NEXT GT-R REVEALED
According to the report, Ghosn will outlay a launch schedule for the new GT-R supercar with an unveiling set for the September 2005 Frankfurt show. The car will then appear again at Tokyo and then at Detroit before Nissan reveals the final production version at Geneva in 2006. The report also confirms that the next GT-R will be powered by a specially developed 3.2 litre V6 with a new electrically-assisted twin turbo setup generating in excess of 480 hp (350kW) placing it directly in Porsche 911 turbo territory. Sitting on an aluminium space frame, the GT-R will employ a steel cabin unit blending light-weight materials with high rigidity strength.
The hydraulic centre differential used in the the outgoing R-34 will be swapped for an all-new magnetic clutch configuration with a choice of 6-speed Getrag manual or an 8-speed CVT inherited and upgraded from the current V-35 Skyline GT-8.
A revised Atessa ETS 4WD system will also be incorporated while the GT-R will sit on 245/40R19 rubber. The new model will also employ 6-pot Brembos on the front and 2-pots on the rear. But while we can reveal these details today, the final styling of the GT-R has not yet been signed off, hence the absence of it from this year's Tokyo show. Nissan know they must keep price down, and several commentators including the Holiday Auto report suggest

I'm as giggy as a school girl now for this car.. :p

GT-R... it will probably be under the infiniti line.. and hence, cost an arm and a leg. So.. I will stick with my underpowered, under-torque rust bucket civic that in current weather is hardly starting haha!!
